man, they are really making me consider voting for Stein instead of PSL.

if I was more of a grievance guy, I would get some green party merch to wear the first brunch day after the election lol.

if local news interviewed me for a sound bite I would say, "I am a simple, traditional single issue voter: anti-genocide. It's just how I was raised." delivered with a shrug and then wait for the mimosa-fueled death threats to roll in.

it's the level of absolute derangement she causes in libs that got me. can't go wrong either way, neither the Greens or PSL is going to win (though there must be a tiny chance of 5% for the Greens if they're calling in VOA) but both send the message and for left of democrat reasons.

ownership class is smashing all the buttons on the superstructure right now and screaming "WHY WON'T THESE DUMMIES VOTE FOR THE GENOCIDE"

[-] pooh@hexbear.net 22 points 2 months ago

This is just propaganda to demonize the left. They’ll get their genocide either way.

If a third party candidate and their voters represents a threat to your election bid then here's a wild thought: Maybe you should court that candidate and their supporters, figure out what the key issues are they most care about, and consider adding it to your own platform?

Oh no, silly me: third party candidates are always jokes and illegitimate people not worth giving attention to right up until they become a convenient scape goat for all your own failings.

  • Third party candidates are insignificant jokes that you cannot take seriously
  • Third party candidates are pulling so many voters from us that we will lose the election

Completely coherent. Especially coherent to focus on third party candidates when there's only a few million people who don't vote (just barely over 50% of the voting population)

America is a very democratic country where 80 million people don't vote but both far-right parties fight for the 3 people undecided between both hitlers.

how dare a candidate affect the election

I hate it when every candidate except myself threatens democracy by participating in elections
