Saying you hate politics is like complaining that you hate the weather, or the way gravity works, or taxes.
Sure, but it's a feature of life and our society, and ignoring it entirely is not noble, it's impossibly selfish and dumb.

When people say they hate politics, they mean they hate online political discourse. Which is a fair criticism, as it’s typically just people snarking and denouncing one another.
It’s also pretty reasonable to not want that kind of toxic behaviour to seep into forums where people talk about their leisure activities. As more online forums become consumed by culture wars, it drives out the normies and leaves social media entirely to the miserable and disaffected.
