I’m struggling with people around me (in the US) being so politically disengaged and just apathetic towards very serious things.

I don’t want to be the stereotypical obnoxious commie who injects politics into everything, but at the same time, basically everything political and we have very different understandings of the world so its hard to just sit back and be like everyone else.

Everyone around me just doesn’t seem to care and I don’t know what to do. I’m getting involved with a party again soon once I get back on my feet but I don’t know how to approach people who are just chilling and galloping through, y’know?

Maybe this is a useless or dumb post but I’m just kind of lost

    I mean, read the room a little. Handing out fliers for a socialist get together outside of Dicks Sporting Goods might not work out.
