I wouldn’t say it’s even necessarily laziness, probably just general apathy with anything remotely political and using Democrat ineffectiveness as an excuse that “nothing will ever change”. Change is slow and takes committed effort, year after year, seemingly nobody has time for that.
If I hadn't been in a family with a deep interest in politics I'd avoid it, too. People get really mad about it, and I've got enough shit going on that I don't need to watch a nationwide argument every year on top of it.
But thanks to my parents I get to deal with all the political shit and all the normal shit.
