417. of course equal rights is a "special interest of a few"
some people have skin in the game and some don't.

Put in on a scale

+2, +1, 0, -1, -2

those really in favor, those somewhat in favor, those who are neutral, those somewhat against, and those really against. If you want to win, you need a majority. Which means convincing people who are +1 to -1 to come over to your side. Your determination to exclude those not as passionate about your own issue seems like some kind of political death wish.
