          They’re upset that a political party convinced them to support genocide and feel the need to lash out.

            Its just important to put the marks down on (digital) paper that it did not happen in a vacuum.

            They were presented with alternative ways of approaching these issues and rejected them.

        Stein is not now, and has not been for the last several elections, a serious contender. She exists simply to be a spoiler candidate for the left side of American politics. She has not moved the needle at all in terms of national policy - or even discourse - for as long as I’ve been aware of her career in politics. She’s an abjectly awful champion of a party that claims to be the champion of ecological causes in the US. This is coming from someone who cares about the environment a whole hell of a lot, but who also understands the infuriating idiosyncrasies of the American electoral system.

          Do you not find this ironic when Kamala was the first candidate to drop out in 2020 because she could not even get 1% of the votes?

          Stein is not a spoiler candidate. She is one of the few serious candidates in the race.

          Harris is spoiling the Democrats chances of winning by being an abjectly awful candidate and supporting awful policies.

            You evidently have a very different understanding of reality than I do.

            We’ll see how it pans out in about 36 hours + however the fuck long it takes whatever litigation and electoral bullshittery Trump is surely going to try to pull off.

          I don’t know anyone who thinks that she is.

          She exists simply to be a spoiler candidate for the left side of American politics.

          The Democratic party is the spoiler for the left side of American politics.

          This is coming from someone who […] understands the infuriating idiosyncrasies of the American electoral system.

          Maybe you do, maybe you don’t 🤷

        Everyone who supports Putin getting his candidate elected by running a sham third oarty campaign that purports to oppose genocide while doing nothing to actually prevent it, is.

      Mrs. Stein and Principal Putler were an the same table making babies and I saw one of the babies and the baby looked at me!
