they aren’t tho. politics is a social interaction. “private politics” doesn’t really exist. politics is a field of power dynamic. so people with more power will always be using this power to change to lives of the ones with less power. so how can politics be “their own business”, when it literally changes lifes. political decisions and stances affect the lifes of others around you. the other part of that is: why SHOULD it even be a private matter?! how will you ever learn, change, enhance, develop… if you don’t interact with others? and as we all know, every interaction in the social sphere is politics.
