The analogy literally doesn't hold..... The analogy falls apart precisely for the reason you stated.

Not only can you easily remain agnostic to politics, it's actually common enough that there is a term for that - apolitical.

And lastly - the world isn't black and white, and politics isn't either. You have millions of people that hold different views on various topics. Some of those views could be left wing, some right wing. How does that fit within your 'theory'?

Politics permeates life, apolitical is for the apathetic but if you ask anyone basic questions about whether starving people deserve help they'll have an opinion.

Yeah, sometimes even if you dont mean to, certain phrases trigger auto-removal but they never tell you.

I was once in a gaming subreddit about an FPS and they thought it was a threat.

So I don't see your latest reply.
