    You made all that up. I never said nor implied it was the only thing you can do. But you should do it as it’s the most effective thing you can do.

      You’ve done it here, you’re doing it in others threads.

      Instead of telling them to vote for a candidate they barely believe in, why not recommend they find candidates they like, locally, state, etc and help them. But then in general elections, vote for someone who can win.

      It’s an entire extra sentence that takes less time than calling them whiny.

      You’re boiling the options down to a suck ass, “eat your dinner” message and if you want to prevent rightward movement, I think calls to action are better.

      We move things to the correct position by having candidates that make a compelling case for why this (waves around) isn’t working. Then voting for what we got when we must.
