I think the below is an important part based on what I took away.

apathy, disenchantment, and desensitization are at the heart of the film, while also having the desire to actually see and know everything. Let's stare at the deadly car crash, but detach ourselves from actually caring.
I feel that the movie could potentially make more people care and want to get involved. Now the movie doesn't tell you which side to get involved with, but recent US history shows that more voters means more democrat votes. That is why there are all these programs to get young people to vote. You don't need to advocate a side, it will push it more liberal.
The majority of the US is pro choice, the majority of the US is pro gay marriage. Yet many of those who are the most disenchanted and don't vote are moderate or even politically on the left.
This movie could do some good, more so than if they just beat you over the head with "Republicans bad".
