The sad thing is, my relatives (like my father and various uncles) detest Biden and think he's a tool at best. But some still are holding out hope for the system, and the idea of America they were enamored by when they left their homelands behind and immigrated in the 70s-90s. So I can understand why they sometimes feel defensive.

Another reason of why I don't push is that I don't think I'd be in the position to capitalize on any cracks even if I were successful. I'm not currently involved in political organization or direct action (yet) beyond reading theory so it's not like I'd be offering them any road forward from there.
