Doing both. The POTUS doesn't read Lemmy and go "haha these fools are gonna vote for me, I don't gotta change shit". To the extent you can influence that office at all, you can do it while simultaneously urging people to vote for the lesser evil.
340 million americans probably don't read lemmy either, wouldn't that mean urging people on lemmy to vote for the lesser evil is also ineffectual?
It probably is, but 52k DAU's isn't nothing. That's more than you can reach by phone banking.
I imagine the value is also that those people will talk to other people, right?
Building a movement one voter at a time? Does that sound right?
