New York Mayor Ed Koch put it best.
"If you agree with me 51% of the time, vote for me. If you agree with me 100% of the time, see a psychiatrist."
You don't have to like the candidate to vote for them.
Its a big difference voting for someone or actually getting out protesting.
I look at it this way. The GOP doesn't do a lot of rallies and marches, yet they have a lot of power.
They organize their ground game and get voters to the polls.
Oh yes, so few rallies.
It also helps that they have a dedicated 'news' channel vomiting up their propaganda 24 hours a day in waiting rooms.
Maybe we should start pestering politicians with asking when they'll invest billions in climate adaption to protect from flooding and drought. Except for USA where they'll pretend nothing is happening.
"Pestering" is nothing.
Find the ones who are doing something and give them full support.
You have finite resources. Don't waste time annoying people who are opposed, work full time for their enemies.
