How would you propose to deal with the apathy of "I'm just one voice(vote)"? The frustration of I can't do/change anything; I'm just one person?

It's a choice. I need to write more about this. Forget about the "one vote might matter" argument. You can be involved or not. Just like you can go fishing or not. Just like you can work hard or be lazy. It's called being in life or outside. It's about the rightness of a choice, independent of knowable consequences. (In the aggregate of course there are consequences that are reasonable knowable and you will be part of that.)

I'm encouraged. I was at a weeklong event that features a wide assortment of personalities of political persuasions, some quite extreme. When one of the participants expressed his confusion regarding who should use which portapotties by putting up signs denoting gender, there was a backlash by a clear majority, and the signs were torn down.

Portapotties the first whiff of a new politics?

LOL, we were all very thankful when they came to clean them out.
