Do office politics go away in a remote setting?

I'm not entirely sure, but I at least have observed that meetings are a lot less "charged" and backdoor rumors aren't as "present" in a remote situation.

When people are physically in a room, you can focus on body language, you can focus on emotions. On a voice call or email, its a little bit easier to focus on data and not who has the fancy watch on.
