If you know a certain group doesn’t vote in large numbers, why would you try to win their vote. If progressives actually voted in primaries or down ballot, Bernie would have won the primary and several other lower politicians would be progressive.

I voted for Bernie, but I actually vote in every election, primary, and fill out the entire ballot. I’ve had countless arguments with people calling themselves “progressives” that claim not voting is not inaction. The claim by sitting on their ass at home they are sending a message. And in a way they are, just not the message they think.
