In my experience people who “don’t want to talk politics” or are “apolitical” do so because they understand exactly what their personal politics are: “my wants and needs come first, and at any cost, so I will pretend to hate all politics because it serves my own. Any discussion will put me in an uncomfortable situation and clearly I prioritize my own comfort.”
