Nihilism is a problem and the step before that is Cynicism. We can’t really know the person but we can know their fruits: are they spending their energy (outside of voting and shit posting) to enact positive change? If the answer is yes, no matter how futile, then they are not the problem
I think most people are more willing to be apathetic than energized if they accept that their choices amount to little to no change.

Most people can see that their choices result in little to no change without anyone having to point to it, and will sit out elections regardless.
Democrats refusing to address that apathy is the problem, not people making it known.
