Unfortunately, everything is politics and politics is inescapable. "Ignoring politics" is also a political action and a political statement.

Indeed. Zone of Interest is a very impressive film that really explores the idea of ignoring politics.

No it isn't.

You are perhaps obligated to take an interest in your own democracy, although that doesn't mean you're obligated to inject it into your workplace and every facet of life.

You are by no means obligated to take an interest in wars on other continents.

Especially not to subject your poor coworkers to your Gell-Man Amnesia-ridden opinions on it!

This country is actively involved in M.E. discussions and actions. There is no escaping it.

The Americans who helped stop Hitler would like to have a word with you.
