I agree, "being political" as in defending and fighting for what is right comes at a cost and people (or companies) have other priorities as well. But be aware those wanting to move away from what we consider right will be thankful for our inaction.
Thing is, waiting usually makes problems worse. Divisiveness seems on a recent all time high already, and two political extremes won't just cancel each other making everything go back to normal. One of them will probably just win. That's how it went prior to the Reich, at least.
So yeah, increasing divisiveness makes defending the good parts of our current societies require more and more effort. Had we not let it get to were we are now we would have required a lot less "being political". Waiting will likely make it worse down the line.
Yes, politics is a never ending process. Since there will always be rules needing to be revised and people trying to use that processes to gain power. Again, allowing this to happen initially and undoing so later will require us to pay extra.
But yeah, obviously most people just want to live their lives not having to spend their valuable time (and more) on politics. Doesn't mean this is a great move. Even more so in times were shit is about to hit the fan.
