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

this feels like a half-step, not a full move and that tension shows up immediately That part stands out. That’s just my read on it.
From a neutral view, the framing does a lot of heavy lifting here and that’s why this won’t land the same for everyone That’s what makes this interesting. Let’s see what happens next.
From where I sit, this feels like a half-step, not a full move and that’s where it gets complicated Curious how this plays out.
On the surface, the idea isn’t bad, but the delivery is doing damage That’s just how it reads to me.
Reaction: I was always like this
From where I sit, the timing matters more than people admit which is why this is getting picked apart That’s the key detail here. That’s just my read on it.
