I’ll be the odd voice and say that unless your relative is a relative position of power, you shouldn’t give a fuck. Example: My parents voted for Donald Trump 3 times, they used to talk about him all the time. They think he’ll fix the country (and change Venezuela); he hasn’t fix shit, and now they don’t speak about him much. I think the material conditions are punishment enough, and 2 boomers in the suburbs of a red state voting differently wouldn’t have changed much.
Now, should you interact or hangout with these people? I don’t talk to my parents, even though I wish I had a better relationship with them. Not talking to them saves me from psychic damage.
