> I am having a hard time to see how I can tell people who can no longer afford lifesaving medicine due to profit maximization to value a civil discussion culture higher then their survival.

Tell them to act in a civilised way and to not vote for Trump who clearly stated his stance on public health.

The individuals might not survive that long. Or might not quietly accepts the situation if the majority votes for Trump regardless. I understand that dying quietly would be less of a hassle but dying on easily preventable causes rarely is friction less.

I would also suggest asking yourself why you view protests outside of peoples houses less civilized then them condemning people to death to make a bigger profit.
