Does it really seem like such a far-fetched idea in our so heavily politicized world that someone would rather just play a bing-bing-wahoo game without having to really think about politics for a moment? I feel like that’s an obvious case where it has nothing to do with racism but just wanting a break from politics.
The reason they want a break from politics is racism. You’re trying to tell me “they’re not racist, they’re just doing the thing racist propaganda wants them to do and feeling the way racist propaganda wants them to feel”. That’s not two different things.
That’s only ever happened to people with antisocial personality disorder, because being sick of politics is a disordered and unusual mental state. It doesn’t happen to neurotypicals. Neurotypicals always like politics. The ones that think they don’t like politics, for any length of time, are wrong. Remember, all participation in society is political. And human beings are naturally hardwired to participate in society. When that hardwiring is damaged, we call it ASPD. Neurotypicals who think they’re sick of politics are actually just sick of conflict, and have accepted a racist lie that politics means conflict.

All politics doesn’t even relate to race. Sometimes people just get tired of politics.
