People can have different opinions to what is important and what is not. If someone try to censor every online forum in order to protect people from cyber crimes and financially support North Korean government even though time and time it has been proven that it doesn't go well, fuck up all the housing crisis even more, but is the only candidate who (remotely) supports LGBTQ, I'm not voting them, which is exactly the case in my country.

There are other important aspects of people's lives and you can't just go around and say your priorities are wrong. You can however argue about the reasoning that led to said priorities and initial opinion, which is exactly what people are talking to you.
