> Politics affects your life in basically every way you could possibly think of, regardless of your apathy towards it.

Yep, 100%. It's unavoidable.

Being able to vote? You have that right because people engaged in politics.

Being educated for free as a child? Politics.

Clear air to breath? Politics.

5 day work week? Politics.

Not held in chattel slavery? Politics.

Allowed to worship at a church of your choosing - or not worship at all? Politics.

Our entire modern lives were built by people engaging in politics. Ignoring political issues is wreckless and shortsighted.
