    It's a sad that people can easily grasp how their one vote means so little, but can't understand that acting despite that fact means so much.

Can you sell that point to us? The idea that Performing Action X is meaningful because performing Action X is not meaningful is a bit hard to follow.

What is different about voting compared to, say, donating a penny to a worthy cause? Other than the fact that the penny is actually worth 1ยข of support to the cause.
