The other interactions like talking about your weekend aren't exacty something to comment on.

Also why it is a problem ?

Where is the line for you? Is a meeting with a sales team “office politics”? What about a meeting with software developers?

The problem is that there’s no reasonable definition of “office politics” that frames it as a positive thing. You’re approaching every interaction negatively as something you can win/lose.
