Millions of people find The Onion funny; you do not.

Do you see the difference?



TBF millions of people are going to demand that you respect their claim that they are not "political."


Demanding to respect a claim is a political act by itself.

Something being 'political' or not is a red herring. Politics is deeply ingrained in our society. How much is it ingrained? It is a spectrum, not a binary proposition. Trying to portrait it as a proposition is trying to oversimplify, removing nuance.

All it does is it wants people to ignore issues and let different political wings try to live in 'harmony' with each other by pretending the other side doesn't exist. This strategy doesn't work, and will hit in the face like a boomerang.


I evidently erroneously omitted the /s but really it's more snark


Wasn't evident to me.
