"I don't want to make this political"

What does that even mean in this context?

[-] CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 37 points 2 weeks ago

Anything against Trump is seen as political to these people. She knows she is going against the narrative and knows people are going to give her shit for it.

It's politics. By definition, it's political, not "seen as political"

[-] Lightor@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Whoa guy, can you stop being so political

[-] MutilationWave@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 2 weeks ago

I have two friends that said they used to listen to NPR but not as much "since they got all political" - meaning calling Trump's lies what they are, lies. In fact they're pretty soft on Trump compared to some outlets. It's frustrating.

Wouldn't it stand to argue that almost anything to do with Trump is political considering he's the president and the context here is Trump breaking promises made during a political campaign to persuade people to vote for him in a political election?

I'm being a bit pedantic here. It's clear what she meant was closer to, "Here's my controversial take, don't come after me". But suggesting that you're not being political in an inherently political matter just goes to show how little these people actually think critically.

That she's a moron. Which is even scarier as she's a moron who apparently has a habit of ending up in front of microphones.

You aren't paying attention.

edit; sorry didn't mean to be rude. it doesn't matter what's "political" or whatever. we just have to keep a laser focus on literally evrything, as much as possible, first real real big "political" chance to fight in Congress is 2026
