In a double boost for Donald Trump, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Friday afternoon threw his backing behind the former president in the 2024 presidential election while Jill Stein unequivocally stated she will not drop out of the race.
Jill Stein is either the dumbest person in America, or she’s being paid by Russia. God I wonder which it is.
Joining in on the Russiaphobia circle jerk.
Phobia are irrational fear. There is nothing irrational regarding Russiaphobia.
I think he meant -philia
So “Russiaphilia”
Note who else is at the table. I’ll give you a hint:
Two things can be true…
That is just Russiaphobia.
Preaching to the choir with that circlejerk.
You keep repeating the same stupid shit, we heard you the first time. Sit down.
okay so dumbest person in america it is then.
You will forever be known as “Putin’s Useful Idiot”
Russian operatives unite!
RFK Jr Jill Stein Jimmydoreisalefty
Or, just people that don’t wanna vote for Harris or Trump, so they choose a party they believe in. Ya know, some people do that without being Russian operatives. :)
But that vote goes right in the trash. Third parties can’t win in our system for practical purposes so the only effect is to take away votes from the side most like your own and risk empowering the party least like yours. Stein is basically supporting Trump.
Circlejerks unite to continue the Russiaphobia!
Russian operatives unite!
He was talking about you, not to you.
Yes. I do not consider myself as a Russian operative.
I am an American for the working class.
You’re not on Putin’s payroll but you are certainly a useful idiot
And how long have you been in this thread?
Hey heres a secret, the Russian government is an autocratic oligarchy and have been an autocratic hellhole for cebturies. They aint for the working class, and they never have been.
Soooo much Russophobia here lately, too.
It’s ironic to see how the party that often criticizes the other side for being hateful is now showing their own hate.
The real question is “Will the Greens break 1% of the vote this time?”
2020 - 0.26% (Hawkins)
2016 - 1.07% (Stein)
2012 - 0.36% (Stein)
2008 - 0.12% (McKinney)
2004 - 0.10% (Cobb)
2000 - 2.74% (Nader)
1996 - 0.71% (Nader)The two times they did, the rest of us got royally fucked.
Since we won’t support your right wing candidates and you can’t win without our support maybe its time to give up the failed duopoly experiment and vote your conscience instead of your fears.
Our maybe it’s time for you to grow up and realize all you’re doing is helping fascism win.
have fun losing. again.
She doesn’t lose. We lose. She’s so bad at politics that America itself loses whenever she plays the game. It would be hilarious if it weren’t so consequential.
this is why i take every opportunity to shit on people bleating about “vote third party”
this is why i take every opportunity to shit on people bleating about “vote third party”
Is that really a good use of your time tho?
if it makes people realize how dumb it is to waste their vote on third party, then yes
But do you think, with your attitude, anyone is gonna read that and go, “OMG, he’s soooo right. I’ve been totally wrong?”
OR do you think people have already pretty much made up their minds, resent you trying to make them feel stupid, and then it reinforces that they are doing the right thing because some people are such dicks to people who vote third party?
The hate and vitriol (and bullying) that I have received for voting third party, 100 percent reinforced that I want no part of the Democratic Party. Some people on here can be just as ugly and hateful in their comments as the Republicans are.
I’ve been called a Russian asset and/or Russian troll farm worker almost daily.
I was a third part supporter before, but after being on Lemmy for this last two weeks, I am even more convinced that I made the right choice!
(And yes guys, I am fine with your screen shots of how many posts I have posted, and the exact count of days I have been on. That does nothing to stop me. And does nothing for your arguments.)
There could be no 3rd party candidates running and we still wouldn’t vote for neoliberal fascists.
