    Being politically active is so much more than just voting. So many options to do more. You can write to your representatives or call them. You can donate to NGOs fighting for what you believe in. You can be vocal in your opinion on the internet or towards colleagues, friends and family. You can take part in demonstrations or even organise. And a lot of other options.

    The mentality of “I vote, what more can I do” is so defeatist and a huge part of the reason why the political right wing can do what they do.
