I notice that often (not always) inflammatory comments are written by those who frequent politics related communities.
In addition to being straight up antagonistic, the comments often are about labeling and categorizing everything. Like if someone posted a meme or made a joke. It can’t just simply be taken at face value. The commenter is compelled to categorize it, label it, assume there is an underlying agenda. It has to be Russian or Chinese propaganda, it’s far-left or far right, its LGBTQ related, it’s incel related, it’s promoting some agenda somehow.
When I go to check their profile it is very common that the individual frequently comments in politics related communities.
Man, not everything on the planet needs to be politics related. There’s not a deep state agenda for everything. Memes and jokes are sometimes dumb and silly and no one is trying to promote anything. There is actually a type of humor called Surreal humor or Absurdist humor which like sarcasm seems like a lot of people just don’t get.
Politics really rots people’s brains.
Some folks can’t “get away from all that crap” because e.g. they’re a minority and their very existence is political.
That means what you wrote is an expression of your privilege, and is therefore itself a political statement.
You say that as though being a minority gives carte blanche to make any discussion you’re involved in political - bigots may try to make you political, but many folks are more than happy to live and let live. I mean I certainly wouldn’t want to talk about my ASD all the time.
The privilege to have sought out communities where I don’t always have to speak about politics, or where I can debate people on more harmless subjects? You can do that too you know…
And if everything suddenly becomes political around you where it wasn’t before, it might not necessarily be because you’re a minority, it might be because you’re the one politicising things, ala my first comment.
