“everything is political” is a phrase designed to reduce the actual meaning and implications of the word politics. That said, I agree with the point of your message
No, it’s a phrase meant to demonstrate that “no politics” is a rule only usable by people whose existence isn’t political. Straight white men existing is not political, but when women’s rights, immigrants rights, LGBT rights are all under attack by the right wing, suddenly their existence is “political” because their right to exist is actively under attack by the current regime.
Except, “everything is politics” means everything. It doesn’t just mean everyone… Basically, my disagreement with the statement is to say that gravity is not political
I think you missed the part on the chain where I was in support of allowing politics.
I disagree with the basis of “everything is politics” because to me it feels like that reduces the seriousness of what are actually active political endeavors.
I don’t ever agree with stances that ban politics from spaces. Because everyone should keep it on mind until the issues are fixed enough that it is not urgent.
The reason I disagree is that I don’t generally see random memes about cats, or physics existing as political. I don’t think people can reasonably call those political.

Wait till we get a flat earther in office who denies the existence of gravity, then it’ll be political.
Tell that to Galileo. Tell it to your kids the way the US is going with the Department of Education being removed.

I disagree with the idea that just because something can be debated in politics, that it is by necessity political.
Basically, I think an object at rest remains at rest until it’s actively debated in politics
