The issue is scalability though. That's why it's preferable to consolidate your base of people who understand the issues, push for logical policy changes that protect people's rights, and hope that over a generation or two, people realize that those rights are important and valid.
That's how the US Civil Rights Movement and most anti-colonial movements worked.

Given the state of voter id laws, I don't think we'd have gotten to equitable voting by today if we tried courteously convincing people.
