The most I get from my close friend when I ask them about anything political (Gaza, Climate change, etc) is a "wow" or "damn".
With my family members it's a literal "I don't care about politics" or "talk to [insert random distant relative name], he knows all about this stuff"
How can I make them care? How can I convince them that this stuff is important and shouldnt shrugged off so easily?
How can I convince them that their boss cutting their wages in half is an important matter that shouldn't be justified by some abstract notion of "that's just how it is"?
Talk to them about good political news as well. When all you hear is "everything everywhere is terrible" it's easy to just tune it out. Successful unionization efforts, protests, progressive legislature.
