    Lol. 

    “They’ll” probably try to divide it down the lines of tax-and-spend or denial-of-rights-and-services based on red states and blue states.

    I’m sure that can be made into something political if you look hard enough.

    In my area it goes like this:
    Me "Wanna a coke?"
    Friend "Yeah"
    Me "What kind?"
    Friend "7Up"

    Paper clips, which by definition hold all those things together that then can neither move to the left nor to the right. This post was edited by Robert at July 26, 2021 5:30 PM MDT

    While this may not fit the actual definition of politicization, the paper clip has been used as a symbol of national allegiance in the past.  In Nazi-occupied France during WWII, wearing a paper clip on one’s lapel was a sign of the resistance, so the Nazis arrested anyone wearing paper clips on their lapels.

    I want to thank contributor Livvie for that information, about which I was not aware, but I would add that the question/discussion is expressed in the present tense, which I answered accordingly.

    Does not make me happy or sad. It is just the way it is. 

    Just as virtually any topic and have a religous side to it or sexualized.
