That has nothing to do with what "politics" means but it's exactly how people have started using "political" to mean "idea I don't agree with".

I think there is a lot of overlap between politics and ideology, and an increasing amount of overlap between ideology and emotion.

I think it's fair to call me out for skipping a step, but I wasn't using it to mean "idea I don't agree with".

I believe, maliciously or innocently, you were.
