So do a large part of mine. Family gatherings are increasingly fractious if anything topical comes up. The elderly parents I can forgive but the younger generation, not so much. Brought up on Thatcher conservatism - it's better for me - and scared of what an alternative government might mean for their personal wealth. Country folk's view are very different.
How does anyone look at the incompetence, corruption, dishonesty, othering, sneering entitlement and general fuckwittery (they are so unrelentingly dim) and think “yep, that speaks to my values”?
(Full disclosure - my family are nice people but all vote Conservative. Which does make me question if they really are nice or just on the surface).
