I like a space free of politics too. However, being able to ignore politics is a privilege. There are folks out there who can't ignore politics because their lives are made worse by those very politics.

Certainly all ER's should have a cognisant and healthy debate about politics as part of their discourse. How about air traffic controllers, perhaps they should discuss the guilt associated with their skin colour before attending to their privileged professions?

Their bubbles of reality are just different, and it's almost impossible to see from within someone else's bubble. Also, ignoring politics is tacit approval of the status quo, which is a choice as much as any other.
