That's just saying "everyone should believe what I do" but in the lexicon of people who look down their nose at the general public.
The only nonpartisan issues are the most basic of things that all societies have like "don't murder people" (but even then the minutia become debatable) or things that are very clearly "government and its buddies vs everyone else" type issues, hatred for government surveillance being a good example (but once again the minutia are debatable).
And of course there's tons of people trying to subtly sail their partisan take on something that's controversial under the flag of "non-partisan".
