The 4 Fs- Repurposing Non-political Zones
Individuals disengaging from politics often retreat into designated zones like faith, family, fandoms, and futurism, considered forefs, perceived as non-political enclaves. However, there is a common tendency to repoliticize these areas by politicians or the political elite. They aim to infiltrate these zones to transform them into political arenas, instilling a narrative that compels individuals to engage politically out of fear for the preservation of these non-political spaces.
