How do you measure it?

Popularity contest? over which population? What’s popular in America is not the same as what’s popular in the Middle East… what’s popular among trans circles might not match what’s popular amonst traditional familymen. If we do an actual statistics count we might be surprised about what topics are actually of interest to the common folk.

I don’t think measuring how “political” something is makes much sense… whenever I see someone applying a measure like that what they are measuring is not the amount of real impact on the human race a particular societal philosophy will have, but rather how it will affect a particular group in a very particular case, or sometimes how “trendy” it is. But most philosophies, when analized deeply in they purest form, are usually atemporal, and their importance is absolute… not something that changes with time or with the trends.

Of course you can have your own way of seeing things. I expect most people do. I probably am a minority in how I don’t see any sense to use “political” like that… since aparently a lot of people use it.
