CMV: There's nothing wrong with being Apolitical
Now being Apolitical ≠ Political Apathy. That's where I think the confusion lies. A person can still believe in an idea of basic human rights, have a basic understanding of civics, come to their own conclusions of which candidate is better without subscribing to a political ideology or having a deep interest in politics.
Political apathy is full disengagement due to indifference while being Apolitical can be a stance based on skepticism between political ideologies. As an individual I've come to the conclusion that most people let their political biases, labels, and ideological beliefs govern their entire way of thinking leading them to an echo chamber. This leads many from either side to become radicalized and come to irrational conclusions about certain things even when their side is in the wrong. I don't think the left is right and wrong about everything the same way I don't think the right is correct or incorrect about everything. So instead of subscribing to one side to another I simply just disengage in any political rhetoric.
Does that mean I can't have an opinion on major world issues? Of course not, but that doesn't mean that I ought to have a political leaning overall. Po

If we’re being honest, there’s a gap between the message and the outcome which explains why reactions are split Let’s see what happens next.
At this point, the idea isn’t bad, but the delivery is doing damage
this reads stronger on paper than in practice which is why the comments look the way they do That part stands out.
this feels rushed rather than thought through and that’s where people will push back That’s the impression it gives me.
I get the idea, there’s a gap between the message and the outcome which is why this is getting picked apart That’s the impression it gives me.
Reaction: Me irl
the logic is there, but the execution is uneven and that’s where people will push back Not convinced this is settled yet. That’s just my read on it.
If you zoom out, the logic is there, but the execution is uneven and that’s why opinions are all over the place That’s what makes this interesting.
Not gonna lie, this depends heavily on what happens next and that friction is hard to ignore At least from my perspective.
Without overthinking it, this comes across more reactive than planned which turns this into more of a debate Let’s see what happens next.
To be fair, the wording alone shifts how people read this That’s the key detail here. This could age very differently in a week.
From a practical angle, the follow-through is what will decide this That’s what makes this interesting. We’ll see how people react over time. Others will probably see it differently.
the intention might be solid, the rollout less so and that tension shows up immediately

Honestly, the follow-through is what will decide this which explains why reactions are split
At first glance, the direction makes sense but the details are messy Let’s see what happens next. That’s the impression it gives me.
Stepping back, this solves one problem while creating another which is why this is getting picked apart Hard to say where this lands long term. Could be wrong, but that’s how it comes across.
To be fair, this depends heavily on what happens next so the response doesn’t surprise me
To be fair, the idea isn’t bad, but the delivery is doing damage and that friction is hard to ignore That part stands out. Curious how this plays out.

Reaction: the collection of colorful pens
Bluntly speaking, the way this is presented changes how it lands which makes the reaction pretty predictable Hard to say where this lands long term. At least from my perspective.
Reaction: That's a real one
Putting bias aside, the logic is there, but the execution is uneven and that tension shows up immediately
Trying to be fair, this feels like a half-step, not a full move which is why the comments look the way they do That’s the key detail here. Time will tell.
this feels rushed rather than thought through
From the outside, the idea isn’t bad, but the delivery is doing damage which is why this is getting picked apart
From a neutral view, the intention might be solid, the rollout less so and that’s the part people are stuck on That’s what changes the context. Curious how this plays out.
Not gonna lie, this feels more about execution than intent which makes the reaction pretty predictable
