It seems that they do, and I’m happy about it, but maybe it’s just my imagination.

After the internet became highly accessible and became a requirement to function in society people cared a lot more in general, but that's not necessarily a good thing (in my view).

I seriously doubt that one year makes that much difference in how much the population cares about issues outside the US. Except maybe in 2018 Americans were distracted somewhat by the midterm elections.

1,000 percent don’t know how statistics work. 200 percent think that the world is flat. 3,000 percent think that there’s no such thing as climate change.

Except when they have the courage to solve the problems.

Do you care more about world issues than you did in 2018? If so, that would explain your perception.

But no, there wouldn't be much change in that regard in a year, certainly not without a catalyst, and no such catalyst exists.
