when you are exhausted by all the political crap in the media
No, Stop! I cannot take another word about Trump, Hillary or any political person - I have political fatigue.
Doing something because it's the polite thing to do.

I don’t care what political party you associate with, this is a major problem!
Extreme radical left Political policies based purely on emotion and political gain rather than scientific fact. Newsom Politics rarley, if ever, benefit the people that they are implemented on. Based on California governer Newsom and his failed policies that make the people of California suffer.
Can also mean the act of forcing a policy onto a populace and then hypocritically not following that policy.
Person 1: Hey man you wanna go eat at Rob's sandwich shop?
Person 2: Didn't you hear? It closed down for good because of Newsom Politics.
Person 1: Wow really? Me and my dad ate there for years..
Person 2: At least we can go to French Laundry with 11 of our buddies and no masks like the gorverner did!
The ad hominem attack of mental illness accusations used to quell or impeach a political dissident. In extreme cases it leads to the medically unnecessary comital of the dissident to a mental institution and/or the forcing of the dissident to take pacifying or punitive medication.
It is a particularly effective method for totalitarian regimes as they can shield the public from viewing evidence supporting the claims of the dissident. It is also effective when the dissident has inherently eccentric behavior that can be magnified by the frustrations of dealing with the government's accusations.
With freedom of the press and the internet it is becoming an increasingly rare tactic.
The best defense is to communicate through an attorney, remain calm at all times, and amass as much evidence as possible before raising further dissent.
