By this definition literally every interaction with the outside world is political. Is a definition that broad really useful?

When people talk about politics they’re almost always talking about interfacing with the government. Taking an Uber is definitely not a political statement in most people’s minds.



It may not be a political _statement_, but it has political _consequences_.

Ignoring nth-order consequences doesn't make them go away.
