Real problem is that so many basic things, like we should treat each other decently, or that the earth is warming, shouldn't be political issues. But here we are. And somehow these things become political in conservative circles and thus they are political to liberal circles too.

Now you can't even say "what's the deal with airline food" because even that gets political. Greenhouse gas emissions from flying planes, vegetarian and kosher options in flight, paper straws, airline bailouts, take your pick of where to go next, all political.
