    I’m not talking about voting for public pressure. I’m talking about community organizing, protests, calling legislators, creating draft bills, etc. Civic engagement goes far beyond voting. I’m never going to discourage people from voting for their preferred candidate, but voting for independent candidates is not public pressure.

      I agree, which is why not voting for the current two parties is the least you can do. Absolutely do other non-voting stuff too. But for voting, do not vote for the current two parties. Simple.
