As Antonio Gramsci argued, ruling groups maintain power partly by making their ideas seem like common sense. This helps explain the political significance of Metallica’s call for disengagement at a time when Israel’s genocide in Palestine demands urgent international attention. Hetfield’s vague agenda of “love, energy and heavy music” ultimately amounts to a refusal to stand for anything meaningful. And that refusal is itself deeply political.
Palestine is a political group. All nations are. All cultures are.
But if “political” just means “whatever I think should be controversial”, then communism is apolitical.
Free Palestinians mean free it’s people which is humanitarian not political
And I just wanna protect people from the evils of capitalism. It’s humanitarian, not political.
Politics is the inevitable outcome of humans interacting with each other in groups. Once you get past the 2 person mark politics start to form, mind you it’s not the grand systems one may think of but it is politics.
I think politics is when a group of even two people form a system for working together. A marriage is a political organisation.
I think political agreement or pairing would be a better term. Organization at least to me implies far more people than two, unless they are polyamorous then it’s 100 percent a political organization.
