Taking a side requires information and opportunity.
Without a reliable understanding of the conflict, you end up a QAnon mark, siding with the oppressors because you’ve been propagandized into believing they’re the oppressed.
Without meaningful opportunity, you’re just posting memes into the void to relieve your own anxiety.

You can’t bemoan someone’s disinterest in partisan slop if it isn’t their favorite flavor of slop.
People who want to avoid politics are hypocrites.

The business-support model for news has dissolved away its educational value. All you have left is Page Six and a bunch of jerk off Op-Ed lightly sprinkled with State Department PR and guerrilla marketing.

Everything is political. Which is the point of this post. People who want to avoid politics are hypocrites.
