That’s why I wasn’t categorical. But I mean you proved my point. If your wife died she’d be the one who suffered and died. Not you.
The point is, politics being like the super bowl is a privilege for some. For others it’s life and death. It’s almost like saying “Keep politics out of my life” is a relatively lucky/conservative request or point of view.
You see, if you are white, straight and male, the answer is usually a big difference. For everyone else? Likely very little.
Singling out straight white men… so progressive!
Yo soy
There was a way to word this where you wouldn’t be a hypocrite but ya kinda just face planted fam.
The whole point of being progressive is to identify things we’ve been missing and things we’ve been doing wrong and to fix them.
Not to only swing the pendulum the other way. Not cool.
I mean it does though? If my wife died because she couldn’t get healthcare she needed, I feel like that might maybe affect me.

Again, I would say if my wife died I would maybe suffer? Losing a partner is not just a nothing event…
But I would agree, politics are life and death for certain people, they don’t have the luxury of getting to ignore them.
Yes obviously you’d bother suffer.
I don’t know why people are down voting you when you’re right. Hell people are mad at you just for talking about it
I mean I was mildly flippant. But I am a straight white guy, so you know, I’m not really punching up or down here?
