unpolitical
Avoiding governmental matters
Unpolitical describes someone or something not engaged with or concerned about politics.
An unpolitical person takes little interest in government, elections, or political movements: She remained stubbornly unpolitical despite the heated campaign season.
The word overlaps with apolitical but may suggest a more deliberate disengagement rather than mere indifference.
