I don't think it accurately describes a single vote. That's like looking at a large data set and only showing a single data point. The point is that there are A LOT of votes.
It doesn't read like a call to action to me at all... Reads like a doomer post, which is what comment OP says they're mocking but it definitely doesn't read that way.
Either way, I'm in agreement with both of you, but I disagree with the approach. I believe it's the opposite of the stated intent.
