Dear HNautes,
Politicians in Europe generally do not appreciate mass, repetitive emailing. It might even have an adversarial effect.
If you want to be helpful, please consider more strategic alternatives such raising awareness among the general public, writing thoughtful arguments, or joining specialized non-profits or political parties.
- JumpCrisscross 2y ago> Politicians in Europe generally do not appreciate mass, repetitive emailing Nobody likes this. A concise, thoughtful call or message carries a premium in the states, but only if you’re demonstrably a constituent. The reason is simple: it shows conviction. If you’re willing to pick up the phone, you might be willing to stump for an opponent. If you’re unwilling to do that, or are raving at the politician such that you would never be won over by them, you’re messaging you’re a lost cause.
