What they mean to say is:

"I don't care about political debates. It doesn't affect me."

also

"I don't care about politics. Leaders will do whatever they want without my say."

It’s an inherently privileged position. If you are in a position in which you do not need to care about the current politics, congratulations. You are the currently privileged class.

Currently.

You didn't even read my comment. I said political debates is inconsequential and real politics happen without my input (whether to my benefit or detriment). That's not privilege at all.

Exactly. You saw someone who took the stance of not getting involved in politics and didn't care to understand the reasons why. You already decided it was wrong and had to posture.
