I disagree. The non-committed vote had an impact, protests are having an impact, and there are many other non-electoral actions that can have an impact as well.
Voting for down-ballot candidates that will resist violence can also have an impact but voting only happens every so often, so in the meantime we should be finding other organized activities that are effective.
