Need a politics-free safe space? It's called "going for a walk"

There isn't much worth responding to in your wall of label-dodging sophistry.

What are you still trying to insinuate by this? Why can't you just accept the fact that we have different opinions and there's nothing wrong with that, instead of accusing me of "label-dodging sophistry" or whatever else you can come up with. I never personally attacked you or your politics at all, so its just hard for me to understand why you're being like this. It isn't that deep. You're just treating me like I went out of my way to shit on you or your politics, when I never did, my point was completely irrelevant of any political belief I or you may have, unlike what you keep trying to frame it as.

Politics exist, "bullshit" to you or not. Almost everything imaginable has political context and connections even if you plug your ears and make loud noises.

Wow, I didn't realize I said politics didn't exist, thanks for informing me of that. Is there anything else I never said that I should know about?

Like no shit, of course politics exist, and sure, a lot of things in life are political, but usually not to this extent that they are currently, and some people just want an escape from it through places like a general memes community that has nothing to do with politics in nature, that's all I was trying to say. People have a right to criticize or be annoyed by that, that was my point, but you can't seem to comprehend that.

You're not sorry. Spare me the Reddit cliches.

FWIW I do genuinely feel bad for having to respond this way to you, I'm perfectly open to talking to people with different perspectives or opinions than I have, but instead you chose to make a bad faith comment attacking me and completely twisting what I said, it's unfortunate.

I don't think you're willing to leave your bubble and see that the world is larger and more intersectionally connected than your selfish whining about how the world other people inhabit isn't as comfortably easy for you to ignore anymore.

I think you base your entire life off of your political beliefs and can't understand that others don't feel the same way. It isn't that hard to understand.

Your pretenses that you do not are the political beliefs that you base your life off of, with blinders on.

It isn't that hard to understand.

It is for you. You're that firmly and deeply rectally and cranially inverted, and this all started because of your whining about others having "politics" that you don't want to see.
