Senators have many legislative & oversight tools to show their opposition to a specific #policy. They are free to introduce legislation, gather support for that legislation & pass it. But placing a blanket hold on all general & flag #officer nominees, who as #apolitical officials have traditionally been exempt from the hold process, is unfair to these #military leaders & their #families.

And it is putting our #NationalSecurity at risk.

I love it. This guy who wrote Rich Men North of Richmond isn't going to let either side put him in a box.

"All I want is #unemotional, #apolitical, #scientific conversations about scifi because I'm a #centrist who is tired of #politics, which is why I'm thrilled to announce that I'll be giving the keynote address on the #Libertarian Party platform entitled "#Liberals: Why we must oppose them" at #RacistCon '23. Please read our #manifesto to see if we're apolitical enough for you to want to attend!"

I just received the question why I have chosen to be politically active. I'm afraid that if we live a purely aesthetic life, it will look like a warzone. Besides, historically, Russians have let pass 4 entry points in the last 140 years to install democratic elements: 1880s, 1910s, 1991, 1999. Are all Russians responsible for Putin's war? Philosopher Vexler strongly argues: Yes they are ⤵️

Inspired by a link shared by @meansofescape ...

Metal community should stop confusing or intentionally interchanging apolitical stances for sense of community.

Communities should be based on self-respect and respect of all the members of community. By inviting fascists and other rotten apples, you're not being inclusive, you're exposing vulnerable members of metal community to verbal, physical and other types of abuse.

@KimCrayton1 exactly: #apoliticalness is #consent by #silence to #opression.

No matter what (marginalized) group is being opressed.

Instead of claiming to be "#apolitical" I'd expect people to be honest and confess that they don't give a f**k because they aren't being affected...
But that would require them to be honest and willing to accept the foreseeable and justified consequences of being an egoistic & antisocial asshole.

*Public sector innovation has a “first mile” problem*
One way to overcome the “last mile” problem (ie. policymakers taking a different type of decision) is to turn it into the “first mile”.

What grinds my gears is when people often #stigmatizing #labels.

- You are a #Marxist?

- Me: No, I am neither left or right. I have no interests in #politics.

- Ah, so you are #apolitical?

- Me: No, I'm just neutral.

@oooh_scary #apolitical is like #unbiased: a term we humans like to cling to in order to feel above the guilty ramifications of our own selfish thoughts.

Flies in the face of any kind of functional psychology: #politics and #biases are essential social survival tools. Anyone that rejects them entirely is unequipped to cope, so they just throw up blinders in the guise of such comforting words instead.

But that's just my very politically biased opinion 😉

I don’t understand people who say they’re #apolitical. Aren’t a lot of decisions we make each day actually political? 🤔

@abeorch
In our view, everything is #political, saying something is "not political" is just #rhetorical and is more a signal of #privilege than anything else.

@Literati One major issue is lack of political awareness or even basic education on how a democracy works. Added to all that there is a trend of being #apolitical which is kind of like a "I give up on politics", when educated people do these kind of things in a democracy what about the masses who were guided by these people for so long. Mobbing and mob democracy became a natural outcome. 😭 No wonder #nationalism is running huge in this country.

Looks like Debian is #apolitical :thaenkin:

RT @emilyst@twitter.co.: You know those Americans who go to England and say, "Gosh, you have such a charming #accent! I wish *I* had an accent!"

Well, that's what male/cis/het/white/etc ppl who believe they lead completely #apolitical lives sound like to the rest of us. You do have an accent. You do have #politics.
