I think there's a difference between someone who doesn't pay attention to politics and someone who just doesn't want to argue politics. Someone who doesn't pay attention to politics at all is too sheltered and doesn't understand the issues that have been going on and affect a lot of people, so a lot of those people don't want to date someone who won't be able to understand something vital to them and that has an effect on their lives. Especially since someone who hasn't been paying attention likely doesn't have a lot of the same principles and beliefs.
