When I say “I’m not interested in politics”, what I mean is “I can’t bear to listen to another right-wing crank regurgitating the latest bullshit he’s read on Infowars”. Sometimes it means “I can’t bear to listen to my 100% white sister-in-law castigate me for not using the term ‘LatinX’”.
And they run smear campaigns on EVERYONE with a D in front of their name, regardless of how far to the left they actually are. Democrats are playing a losing game by worrying about how the Republican media are going to portray them.
