> It says a lot about how confused political discourse gets that the author considers these things "not politics".

Another pro tip for argues over the holidays: don't be that nit-picky... even if you are right on some level, I'm not sure who would call such topics current political discourse topics (:

Best tip though: keep the discussions away, delve in the happy shared past, dream about a better future, or just enjoy the moment! Merry christmas!

me, them, a lot of ppl here... they are intensely political topics, it's your conception of politics to be very narrow: electoral politics news.

I don’t think it’s being nit-picky at all. The first thing that struck me reading the list was how intensely political it was.
