What makes everything political? Of course something I do or say can influence others, but it is still not political in the vast majority of instances. Not even non-significantly.

Political action is shaping my environment to my desire. Via compromise or war perhaps. What is your definition of it that it applies to everything?

That's just action. What makes it political is if happens to have an effect outside of your home. (And technically even those restricted to the inside will usually end up having some sort of effect outside of your home.)

Hm, I disagree that any effect has to be political. If so the word seems to have little intrinsic meaning.
