I'm immediately suspicious of people that don't want to discuss politics in today's world. You literally have to be a carefree ostrich.

[-] bec@lemmy.ml 12 points 2 years ago

I guess not wanting to discuss it is okay considering that's exhausting, but asking others not to is the dick move

[-] nooneescapesthelaw@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 years ago

Not really. I want to kick back and relax, why would i start discussing politics in my free time? I live in a state that is deeply entrenched in one side, so my opinion does not really matter

[-] shiveyarbles@beehaw.org 2 points 2 years ago

Sounds like you're asking yourself a philosophical question. Some people actually care about things.

Tell me how it's "suspicious" to not want to read a post about Starfield, and have the comments be filled about politics because the game allows you to pick between he/him, she/her, and they/them?

It's a game. Shut the fuck up about politics.

[-] shiveyarbles@beehaw.org 4 points 2 years ago

Umm how is that politics? I think you're confused.

[-] Polar@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 years ago

America has turned pronouns political. I think you're confused.

[-] shiveyarbles@beehaw.org 3 points 2 years ago

Ahh ok any social issue that makes people uncomfortable is political.

[-] Polar@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

I don't think you understand what pronouns are.

Politics in a political or news sub is fine. Politics in, say, a technology sub or a gaming one is just annoying.

Arguing politics online has never solved anything. I have better uses of my energy than to argue politics with a bunch of faceless randoms that won't accept anything less than total conformity.

I think they prefer to be called "Austrians"
