depoliticize
Strip of ideology
To depoliticize is to remove political character or influence from something.
An issue that has been depoliticized is treated as a practical or technical matter rather than a partisan one: efforts to depoliticize the judiciary, We need to depoliticize climate science.
The opposite is politicize.
