Whether talking about politics is cringe or not completely depends on the context of the conversation.
Politics, when deconstructed, is simply a debate about how we should govern ethical, philosophical, and moral questions that exist in society.
A discussion about this type of politics will largely revolve around debating ethical questions, such as the morality of stealing. This discussion self evidently requires a discussion on how society should incentivize or require (govern) this ethical or unethical practice.
Most “political” discussions revolve around:
1. Arguing against obvious strawmen arguments.
You should always pursue the best argument for and against something. Arguing against obvious strawmen have become the norm in all online discussion, and instead you must always pursue the truth.
2. Celebrity-like gossip.
It’s fine if you like this, but we need to be clear about it.
