      You mean magician Jill Stein, who randomly appears right before an election, gets a whopping 0.5% of the total votes cast, then magically disappears again until the next election?

      You mean we shouldn’t be placing our faith in these extremely reliable 3rd party candidates from parties that have no actual interest in becoming viable?

      That can’t be right. I’m going to go ahead and vote for a candidate that can’t give me anything because they literally can’t win or just get big mad and not vote at all.

        Don’t you mean magician Harris who dissapeared after her loss then only reappeared to sell her shitty book? Jill never disappeared she is still being vocal about what she cares about including the american gestspo ICE.

        Harris do not realize that if the american Hitler Trump succeed to instaure a dictatoeship she would be one of the first political prisoners to be kidnapped

      Jill Stein has aged like fine wine. Still on the right side about almost everything. But we do not hear any media talking about what she says anymore because the Blue MAGA narrative is that she appears out of thin air after four years and that must remain intact.

        Nobody’s talking about what she says because she has an incosequentially small audience and does nothing to build it up.

          Reminder that Jill Stein, the most popular 3rd party candidate, only got 0.5% of the total votes cast.

          Proving there is no viable 3rd party in America and won’t be for a long, long time.

            If she’s so unpopular, why do you care about her? She didn’t affect any election according to you.

              But your favourite candidate also lost but it’s not her fault according to you, it is everybody else fault. See how hypocritical you are?

                  You are complaining about people not voting for Newsom because Newsom is not popular but then pretend other people whine about their candidate being unpopular not being the candidates fault.

              Fr, funny how these alt-left mfers love democracy except when it turns out their candidate just doesn’t have the votes. If Jill Stein couldn’t win a majority of left voters via a primary, then how is she going to win a national election? And why can’t these alt-left parties ever start grassroots movements at the local level, instead they only care about presidential elections and just want to skip straight to the endorsement without winning any primaries, and if they can’t do that then they take their ball and go home?

                This would be funny if Kamala also never won a primary and was the Democratic candidate for the 2024 general election.

                Stop. You’re hurting their feelings and that’s going to force them to blow their vote on a 3rd party or not vote again, leading to more conservative fascism.

                You’re confusing them with logic. You’re going to boil their brains. Please have mercy.

                Because, like I said, they have no ambitions of political influence. Only virtue-signaling and purity-testing.

                  Bingo.

                  It’s the whole Palestine thing. They chose not to vote or vote 3rd party, which helped put the side objectively worse for Palestine in control, because they never actually cared about Palestine. They only cared about their own feelings. Their own self satisfaction.

            this is delusional speak. I don’t like her gaza “plan” but compared to trump she is better in literally every aspect. (remember you are literally comparing her to a fascist)
