    The soulists want to abolish gravity and make the laws of physics into suggestions. The flat earthers think Newtonian physics are a conspiracy by the government to hide the truth.

    Any example of an apolitical thing you can give, I can explain why it’s political.

    Things like the abolition of capitalism aren’t serious business because they’re political. They’re serious business because they have huge consequences. You’re missing the reason they matter, and that’s a problem we can solve by admitting everything is political.

      I disagree with the idea that just because something can be debated in politics, that it is by necessity political.

      Basically, I think an object at rest remains at rest until it’s actively debated in politics
