i feel like if "threaten to not vote for politicians who don't enact policy you support" is off the table you should probably admit we already don't live in a democracy

i don't compute how we're supposed to make demands of our elected officials in any way other than threatening to not vote for them unless we have the money to threaten to withhold bribes

Partake in democracy! By treating your elected like infallible monarchs.
Get the vote out! But don't you dare organize your neighborhood.
So much about this arrangement is getting the politics out of politics, and now the planet is dying.
