> In my experience, both sides of an interview tend to avoid politics

They do, but in many cases the interviewer looks at the social media profile of the candidates. It's always the most vocal on both sides that tend to fill their public profiles of loud political statements (so they're easy to spot) and many wouldn't hire an outspoken far right winger or a blatantly death-to-capitalism lib type in their team.
