The Green Party leader has hired a GOP consulting firm and worked with Trump-affiliated lawyers.
I don’t agree about voting third or not voting is for her that I shall not name, but I’ll concede it was not that long ago that I would have agreed. I’ve simply had a change in perspective.
Your perspective on this isn’t really relevant, and neither is mine.
Its pure math. Not voting Harris bolsters Trump, whether its a third party vote or not voting at all.
I would hope you would take time to consider that.
I will absolutely not, because its a completely false equivalency. Maga is so much more than accusing someone of shilling. It is in absolutely no way comparable, and is in no way an idea worth entertaining.
Its garbage. Its intended to mislead. And you, right now, are a perfect example of someone falling for it. You’re taking a minor item, which then becomes an equivalent of literally violent fascists who have no problem being in bed with white supremacists and christian nationalists who want a white christian nation.
No. It is absolutely not worth contemplating. That is absolutely farcical.
I hope you do mine, as well.
I always do consider what others say. I will not, however, waste time on those ideas which are 100% intended to mislead, especially those ideas championed by racist, hateful, fear mongering fascists. Those aren’t worth my time. I don’t think they should be worth yours either.
Have a good night!
Just wanted to mention (from another discussion on here) something I thought was relevant.
The Working Families Party is a social democracy and progressive party. What is key about them (and decidedly different than green) is that not only are they working towards better, they collaborate (and use electoral fusion where its an option) to side with Democrats to keep Republicans out, where by themselves they would lose.
There is actually a WFP member running under the Democrat ticket in my area, who already had my vote, and I didn’t even notice was a member of the WFP. These are the sort of 3rd parties who are actively working to make things better, and ensuring the far right doesn’t make gains. These are the sort of 3rd parties that are, imo, worth being members of.
You can check them out here: https://workingfamilies.org/
Their candidates, and the limited number they’ve endorsed that are Democrats (like Harris), are here: https://workingfamilies.org/candidates/ - you’ll see at the top of each state if they have an org in place, which they do for CA, CO, CT, DE, GA, NJ, NM, NY, OH, OR, PA, RI, TX, and WI.
You’ll see a big difference with them, notably the number of them who are running in local and state elections. Where they don’t have ballot access, they work with the Democratic ticket. Where they do, and where a far right win is not going to happen, they run as WFP. Philadelphia has a few members on their council.
Hope you take a look!
Thanks so much! I’ve voted WFP in the past and there are definitely candidates running as WFP now that will get my vote. Of course they’re branded as “radical leftists” and they are getting my vote. I don’t know when feeding a hungry child and spending money for decent homes and quality healthcare for our own people instead of blowing up other people and policing the whole world became radical, but it’s time to normalize it.
