It’s a reference to people who like to ignore discussion of contentious issues by saying they’re not really into politics while failing to realize or care that literally every single aspect of their modern life is directly intertwined with politics.
But not being into discussing politics doesn’t mean that you’re unaware of how politics is directly intertwined with every single aspect of modern life.
In fact, that awareness could be the reason you don’t want to discuss it. It’s stressful shit that can seriously impact one’s mental health.
I sort of get that that’s what it’s trying to be, but I feel like the comic does a poor job of conveying that. The last panel should be something that demonstrates how their life is affected by politics. But it doesn’t. It just zooms out further without showing anything new.
They’re in floaties in the water. The last panel shows that the water they’re in, is in fact politics. The word politics is labelling the water that they’re in.
Is there a reference I’m missing?

I think they’re saying they ignore the discussion, i.e. don’t pay attention, not they they don’t want to get into a passionate argument.

OH!
That was not clearly depicted.
Thanks.
’ Did not see that’s what it was trying to do. To me it red like it was just stamping “politics” there, like that’s a summation of what politics is.
That is…a really weak presentation.
I would’ve never understood that it’s a label on the water if it weren’t for your explanation. I second that it’s conveyed rather suboptimally
I’m also confused by this one, what is the last frame supposed to be.
They’re both swimming in politics.
