I think what he's missing is that he's approaching the question of "how do I make these people care?" from a liberal position. It just seems like such a weird question to even ask someone who cares about others by default.
If you think of it from the perspective of a self-centred conservative though, you can ask the question as "how can I frame the pain of others as their problem?"
Try talking about solutions in a way that affects them personally:
These people do not (cannot?) care about how many children are killed by our bombs or about the fate of some bird, so constantly appealing to emotional arguments meant for liberals will never work on them.
This is horrifyingly accurate.
You want to fix the housing problem not because you care for thr homeless, but because you want to have nice public ameneties that arent overrun by homeless people using them as makeshift shelters/injection sites.
Or just to bring the housing prices down for them to afford.
Yes, that's a big part of solving the homelessness problem.
Like all my friends with investment condos brag about how smart they are, but at the same time they complain that society is crumbling around them and the TTC is basically a mobile homeless shelter/mental asylum. And they never put 2 and 2 together
I'm starting to think they actively want to see these people get hurt and / or die, like they want vengeance or something.
