Well here’s the thing. I find these relatives and I come to a similar conclusion, albeit through different paths. My ideas are that the wealthy elite use labour exploitation and obfuscating it through “technology”, to keep their wealth and keep us poor, hungry and easily controlled. My conservative family claims that through some strange brew of government regulations, restrictions to freedom, immigrants, woke education, and that kind of stuff that the wealthy elite control us. So (my relatives at least) are actually somewhat reasonable and attentive to my rants and I similarly try to show how I understand them to a point when they talk about trade and exploitation. I have to still explain away their misconceptions, like having to say that 400ppm+ of Carbon is a problem for our planet even if air is 20% oxygen.
