    Nah, if Nader wasn’t here we wouldn’t have had Iraq, and if Stein wasn’t we wouldn’t have had Dobbs.

    The green party are fascist collaborators and deserve no deflection from their responsibility in holding america back in the name of their white left bullshit allowing the right to drag this country further and further off track in the name of “teaching those establishment dems a lesson.”

    We could have had better education standards, made headway on climate change, and avoided the 6-3 court taking away women’s reproductive rights, but nah, lets blame the dems who’d have stopped that shit for the Green Party being knowing spoilers upto and including taking RNC money to keep doing it.

    When we achieve the multipartisan pluralistic democracy this country needs the current greens will be wiped out and replaced, because they’re not a real party with real political goals, they’re a russian and RNC backed professional spoiler club who exist only to let the white left pretend the continued degradation of this country is the fault of the people out to halt or reverse it because,

    “well you didn’t make me want to vote for you as hard as this obvious straw-candidate who’s literally taking money from the folks out to destroy everything I claim to value more than rubbing it in your face that it’s your fault I’m doing nothing to help.”

    You folks still trying to blame hillary for Stein stabbing everyone in the back are the epitome of the “look what you made me do!” domestic abuser.

    Deny, Accuse, Reverse Victim and Offender,

    That didn’t happen. And if it did, it wasn’t that bad. And if it was, that’s not a big deal. And if it is, that’s not my fault. And if it was, I didn’t mean it. And if I did, you deserved it.

    We’re going to see queer folks be hunted for sport by the end of next year because people like you can’t just admit that shit is better when the Republicans are not let into at least one branch of government than when they aren’t.

    We literally have observable proof that the biggest improvements to life in this country come when the dems are given the margin to just do shit without having to spending months prying it from the right, but nah, let’s teach them another lesson by letting the Rs back into power so they can reverse Obergefell with a 9-0 majority this time instead!

    That will teach those old white folks that won’t be personally impacted at all and not just prove that the white left is not and has never been any sort of ally to the queer community!

      Why don’t you advocate as vociferously for ranked choice voting and proportional representation instead of political districts so we can get out of dichotomy?

      Nader and Stein are less of a factor than you think.

      In 2000, the butterfly ballot and Pat Buchanen caused more problems in Florida than Nader did, but the killer part was NONE of the Florida nonsense would have mattered if Gore had just managed to win his own home state of Tennessee. That would have put him over the top and Florida would have been a non issue.

      Same thing with Stein in 2016. Clinton was her own worst enemy talking about putting coal mines out of business which cost her Pennsylvania and then failing to campaign entirely in Michigan and Wisconsin.
