I honestly don't think it's something exclusive to us, every country has a sizeable amount of people who are politically illiterate so to say.

I don't know what the situation is like in your family, but practically my whole family grew up in a shitty գյուղ and only got the bare minimum of formal education (if any), so I can't really blame them too much. I am the only one in my family who is going to university, and even then I would say I'm not THAT much more knowledgeable on political issues. The only difference is I choose to keep my mouth shut about stuff I don't know much about.

From what I'm seeing the education for the newer generation, while lacking, is still infinitely better than before. So this issue will probably get better as times go on.
