To be fair, I think what they’re really saying is “I don’t want to talk to you about it so i’m shutting this discussion down as politely as possible”
So I feel like if you actually responded to someone saying that with this, they would just walk away. Cause most of the time I don’t think it’s actually the politics, it’s the person they’re talking to about it with.
I’m sure this is the case for some people, but I personally know many people that actively avoid all politics. It’s difficult to get them engaged with it, but I’m slowly seeing success
No actually, they don’t like politics at all. I’m managing to get them to engage and realize that a lot of their problems aren’t individualized. They aren’t just a bunch of strangers, they’re my friends and family. I know them enough to know how they feel about politics.

Around you, maybe. Maybe you’re the reason why they don’t want to talk politics… with you

Who is “they”?
My “they” simply adore complaining but last thought in their mind is to try to practically change something.
