I feel like I can’t get politics out of my head most times and I don’t think that’s a bad thing. My entire being is political being a first gen child of middle eastern immigrants and being told stories on how women and girls are treated back in the homeland to this DAY. Hard not to be.

“What radicalized you” idk man being brought to protests when I couldn’t understand what’s happening. Maybe the fact that I’d be dead (or worse) rn if I showed the slightest bit of hair or skin. I can never go see my parent’s once beautiful country completely safely and as I am.

Totally don’t want this to be a “woe is me I have it so hard” post but more of a “if you aren’t of a specific class, race, gender and sexuality, how can you NOT be political/choose to be ignorant?”

Like my bad bro ik we all try to get away from politics because it’s depressing but for you it’s “politics n debates” for the rest of us it’s reality and embedded into our very identity.

But I still totally get wanting to get away from it all cause consuming so much really isn’t healthy. No hate or shame to anyone who needs to log off.

Idk how to end this thread other than just saying uhhhh
You’ll have to face the music eventually? And I think on some level or another we all are.

I usually do not mess around with politics simply because either it's 'boring' or I can't get my head around it.
Still, I know it's important for everyone and try to do my part.

i completely agree with this. to have it be "just politics" is a privilege and honestly ignorance bc what do you mean millions of people being put into harms way is just drama to you?
