If you like it and your opponent doesnt....you are a bad person. And vice-versa.
Christ....we have people assuming everyone who doesnt believe in getting a vaccine for themselves....is now a white supremacist. Regardless of their skin color or even actual beliefs.
Common sense, critical thinking and healthy debate have been replaced by making sure you are on the opposite side of any and every issue your opposition has taken a stand on.
This is "woke" culture.

Everything was always political. It just used to be that folks had other things on the go, now it's peoples full time hobby spamming politics. Likewise we are confronted more regularly by view points we dont agree with, rather than them existing outside our immediate consumption.
The only time things weren't political was when you were under 25 and everything was about sex and fun and we were too self involved to realise everything was political.
