I've been taking this angle for years and it works like magic. Same with credit unions - most people hate big banks too and literally just need help getting started. "Vote with your wallet!"

The best part about direct action is that it helps the person employing it. Voting benefits the individual voter so little that they don't think very concretely about what will actually happen, and instead side with whichever tribe gives them more useful local allies.
