Am I right to get angry when people "don't do politics" or blow it off/demonstrate apathy? (lemmygrad.ml)

I look at it as a matter of both privilege and apathy. I get upset (not visibly, of course) when people say they don't "like" politics, or blow it off entirely. Politics is not some separate entity, we are living in a society! An inherently political game!

Furthermore, there is no "politics" as just a concept. What part of politics? Literally everything is politics. Climate change and environmental care? Food and agriculture? Economics? Culture, beauty, art? How can someone blow off literally everything? To me its an attempt to shut down conversation and demonstrates they don't care or have no idea about the atrocities that have occurred/are going to due to the West's collapse and climate change. Am I out of touch? Being non-undedstanding?

Let me know, thanks

The moment there is a minority character, they cry politics, but when there is a game where you are a soldier waging war, they don't call it politics.
