People here will literally tell you “I don’t want to hear about it” but then complain about the gas prices. It feels like a total Don’t Look Up moment.

    No idea but, here in australia this is a strange dynamic.

    In general I dont talk to people about politics. Like 90% of people I know its just easier not to say anything about politics at all ever.

    5% i know are conservative so just politely avoid the topic.

    The remaining 5% are closer friends with whom I regularly discuss politics.

    The fuel crisis is kind of uniting though - you can talk about that with anyone provided you don’t go too far up the chain of “what caused this”.
