Commentary
You may not be much interested in politics, but politics—to borrow from Trotsky’s famous dictum on war—is certainly interested in you. With indigenous land acknowledgements to sit through, rainbow-coloured sidewalks to tiptoe over, and approved slogans to recite on cue, political preoccupation has colonized nearly all thinking. Entertainment, education, sport, business, and even private conscience now arrive freighted with ideological significance. Everything must justify itself politically before it can simply exist.
