Again. You can not shame people into voting for your candidate

America has to be the only "democracy" that shames voters for disagreeing with politicians instead of the reverse.

It's wild that people think they have more ability to change the minds of millions of disconnected voters than the one guy who wants their votes and whose job it is to respond to public sentiment.

Forget which side you think is wronger in their thinking. Trying to individually argue voters into compliance is pushing against the ocean.

Not on my scale as a regular dude or dudette

On any scale. Changing one mind who you know how to contact, even if they might ignore you, is easier than changing (or even contacting) millions. This idea that you're all going to get together and yell at all the "bad" voters that are upset over a US funded genocide in election-meaningful numbers is pure nonsense. And that's ignoring that yelling at people to support your team generally doesn't work.
