    so long as you don’t examine your own inaction too closely.

    Re-read you own comment, not for any argument or point I’m making, but just for your own benefit, you could learn from yourself once you realize you’re not above your own advice. If you wanna mock someone else’s effort, best be sure you’re actually doing something meaningful, because voting is not much harder than abstaining in protest. Both are interactions with the electoral system and both only impact the electoral system.

      I am literally advocating for civic participation in the system as a means of change, and I engage in civic participation in the system.

      They are literally advocating for civil war as a means of change, but refuse to engage in any behavior that would contribute to that goal.

      That you can’t see that one is hypocritical and one isn’t says more about you than me.
