There is an English template for expressing this idea; it goes "You may not be interested in politics, but politics is interested in you".
I don't know what originally filled the spot where I've put in "politics".

I like your analysis a lot, but I don't like your conclusion. Because ultimately, humans make politics, so one can influence them. In french there's a saying : if you don't care about politics, then politics will take care of you...
