hi. slrpnk.net user here. yes. grass is political. when you mow your grass is determined by social contracts, the kind of grass you grow is reflective of the economic pressures you experience. when a city makes a green area, they must engage with politics on how to determine where and what the green area will be.
since the dawn of civilization, aka growing grass for food purposes, grass growing has been both political in its decision making, as well as a driving force in politics.
everything is political, and calling people who think that chronically online is goofy

i’m also on slrpnk.net (same username) though i’m much more a lurker over there.
I’m all for the “everything is political” position, at least where animals are concerned (people are also animals).
I wasn’t asking that question in seriousness but your points are interesting.
I’d think all the examples you provided are people politics , with a grass subject.
I think what i meant was “is physical grass inherently political” but i haven’t thought this all the way through tbh.
I get that grass as a concept can be (and is) a political subject, but the physical grass itself ?
Like, can physical objects be inherently political if you take them outside of external political influences (people stuff)?
Hmm, i shall have to think about this one.
