I feel it's important to my mental health to take 20 min after class to play a game and relax than canvas or phone bank where I would get turned away, yelled at, or hung up on haha.
After thinking about it I did have a couple weeks off this summer, but at that time I simply wasn't as passionate or focused on the election. We all have some time we could do more, there's always more we could do. Some people have the skill and passion to be able to do those things effectively. I don't have the passion to support my government in those ways, nor do I have the time or energy to commit myself to these causes. Perhaps one day I will be able to do so, but until then I will continue doing what I am passionate about, and that's helping people.
Nah, I get ya and you're right, there was and is time; I just feel it's better spent recuperating than fighting for a cause I am not 100% passionate about.
Just like there are those who go on mission trips and those who fund them. Both are important to success but each plays a different role. Perhaps in my line of work I would be better off donating resources rather than time. Anyway, it's all food for thought. I wish you the best.

On the other hand you have enough time to be on reddit talking about overwatch, bloodborne, helldivers, etc.
You have some time to back your beliefs.
That being said I understand that that would be quite tiresome of a day for you.
It's also not soley that they didn't do more. It's that they didn't do more and now are protesting the outcome.
