Why? What should we talk about instead as members of a polis? About endless consoomerism and other such hedonistic stuff?

all these could be considered political. In my opinion they often are inherently political.
science: evolution debate, climate change debate, who gets studied, what gets funded.
facts: statistics (and who makes them), places names and borders (gulf of mexico vs america), textbooks (how is the history of slavery thought)
games: censorship rules, didactic games, regulation in games, content and representation of mainstream videogames(evil brown terrorist vs good guy US marine)
art: patronage, "degenerate art", monuments and their legitimacy vs their removal, looted art, protest art
music: folk and protest music
hobbies: cycling (any comment on bikes degenerates to a car vs cycles debate), DIY (right to repair, 3D printing regulation, open source culture)
