    Politics and social media both have a major impact on your life. Imo it’s impossible to disconnect (pun intended) them from each other. Social media is basically the 21st century version of the town square. People talk about politics, that’s just how it is

      Exactly. Politics is people debating and discussing their competing visions for how the world should be. Beyond close family connections, social media is for connecting large numbers of people. Most of the questions that are relevant to large numbers of people are political in nature.
