Everything is political, because everyone else is political, except for me - I'm not political. The winners of the political game are the same individuals who reinforce the political game, and the people who complain about the politics are inevitably the ones who can't muster the energy for fake affection, enthusiasm, flattery, obsequiousness and therefore lose the political game. As soon as something has become a culture in itself it is already too late - it is and will forever be political, til the very beginning of the next big culture shift, which will also inevitably become political. It's self-selecting, and it's been going on since the beginning of history. The only answer is to not give a shit. To not complain about politics, or if you happen to be a winner of politics, to be self aware enough not to then turn around and reinforce the game that you just won at.
