Then politics for you is a meaningless concept, and not the same one that people mean when they say "don't talk about politics in [x]" (where x is never "public", for the record).

Actually, it's the other way around. I have a coherent and useful definition of politics, while most people are being manipulated by a harmful meme that shapeshifts its definition so it matches whatever they don't personally like.

It's not useful if it causes you to misunderstand people, which you obviously have done.

If your employer's office policy is "no politics in working hours" are you able to not get fired?

I'm perfectly capable of understanding you, I simply disagree with you.

You understand the meaning of the word politics but disagree with it? Good how does that work?
