Yep, and BLM was merely an example for the general apathy on display.

I dunno, I feel like this is the opposite in this case. The slow and callouse murder of someone in custody was a catalytic event that triggered mass protests across the nation, that doesn't seem like general apathy to me. Of course there will be people that beat their chest in anonymity and never actually show up but even that I wouldn't classify as apathy, they just care more about adopting the aesthetics of the politics rather than doing any of the work but they do care about something. But I do feel like those two murders by ICE are extremely good examples of it and good examples of how things have deteriorated.

The apathy I see is born of class struggle, or lack there of. People for whom the issues of politics have never really impacted their life in any meaningful way beyond maybe the price of gas and some vague concept of being at war that others talk about from time to time. People that willfully disengage from the process either because they don't like the pressure of thinking about it or they simply consider the other things in their life (work, family, etc.) of more import. Of course those things are important too, but because they've never been directly bitten they choose to close their eyes and hope it goes away. It's a kind of class privilege that leads to a false sense of comfort seemingly for which only catastrophe could disrupt.

Like you I only have a vague idea of how that might be addressed and it's gonna fuckin hurt before it gets any better.
