For once, I’m begging the GOP to shut down the government. God that would be so fucking funny if they sealed the deal for Harris.

And if you haven’t used it in a while, we recently made a blog post giving a rundown of the changes leading up to our most recent major release.

Can confirm that /c/vegan officially endorses the Trump/Vance ticket.

When people ask me why we put so much money into space research, I’ll point out that cosmologists might find a way to treat Laura Loomer’s bipolar if they ever find where all the missing lithium went.

He’s going to hurt your pocketbook*

Let’s be real here.

“I was totally going to ace that test until the crooked, very unfair professor told me I couldn’t look at my neighbor’s answer sheet.”

Oh, well gee, if Stein says the dinner was nothing in an interview and provides literally no evidence, then obviously it’s benign.

Like come the hell on, was your hope that people would just say “Welp, they’ve got a link to an article. I won’t bother to read it, but I’ll assume it’s strong (let alone any) evidence in favor of Stein. Case closed, I guess.” It’s kind of insulting that you think I and the rest of the userbase are actually that media illiterate.

worried about “eroding our democratic system”

Something a Trump presidency has proven to do wonders for and something that Trump has espoused a deep desire to protect.

Democracy itself is on the line. The man Stein is working to get into office incited a violent coup attempt on the US Congress, tried to steal the election in multiple ways, eroded institutions and norms left and right, and has expressed that he wants to make sure people never have to vote again which is entirely possible if he’s given another four years inside the Oval Office. I’m defending it because I actually understand what’s at stake here and that politics isn’t a stupid game. People in the US will die. People in Gaza will die. People in Ukraine will die. People’s lives – especially those of the poor, the middle class, and ethnic and sexual minorities – will be ruined. The US will take decades to recover if it ever even starts recovering at all.

Jill Stein is knowingly coordinating with the Russian government for the express purpose of getting Trump into office, and to that end, she’ll say whatever bullshit she can to draw leftist votes into a FPTP black hole.

Yes, Jill Stein should unambiguously be barred from running on the basis that she’s a knowing pawn in a Russian election interference campaign to get a pro-Russian fascist elected. Her entire job is to ratfuck the election to ensure it’s the last one the US ever has.

Ooooh noooo

the candidate you oppose most

Look at their comment history; 1600+ comments and nearly 800 posts in 29 days, all supporting a known Russian plant whose entire job is to siphon away leftist votes so Trump can win in swing states. The candidate they oppose most is whichever they get paid enough rubles to oppose, and that isn’t Trump.

They’re one of the people drifting around Lemmy who’ve been shilling the Green Party lately, never mind that their candidate is a Russian plant whose goal is to siphon away just enough votes to get Trump elected.

This exactly. When the “legal safeguards” only exist as long as they’ll hold up to scrutiny from a corrupt supermajority on a single unelected, unremovable body of 9 people whose authority is absolute, final, and does not require proper justification in any form, then the actual “legal safeguards” are that five people won’t initiate a coup. Which we saw absolutely already happened in 2000.

Funny that you can readily cite this statistic but don’t actually link to what those offices are. Out of embarrassment, maybe? Or maybe because it would show that the Greens are an extremely fringe third-party in no position at all to run a candidate for POTUS except as a Russian-planted spoiler for the GOP?

Wow, 143 elected offices is massive. Such prestigious positions as “Neighborhood Council”, “Conservation District”, “Town Commission”, “Planning Group”, “Park Commission” (Pawnee reference??), “Select Board”, “Zoning Board of Appeals Alternate”, “Water District Board of Commissioners”, “School Committee”, “Advisory Neighborhood Commission”, and gasp what’s this? The mayor of a California town of 22,000 people? Why if all of them banded together and moved to Connecticut (and somehow became popular with the residents there), they could collectively make almost 77% of an entire Connecticut General Assembly and literally no other offices including mayorships, governorships, all of the other state legislatures and the federal legislature, and all the god-knows-how-many positions in local governments.

Look at their comment history. Joined almost exactly a year ago, had maybe 5-ish comments. Then a month ago, Harris replaces Biden giving Democrats a solid chance at the presidency, and suddenly they now have around 200 comments, every single one of them being in /c/politics and promoting Jill Stein and conflating Kamala Harris with Republicans (e.g. calling her voters “BlueMAGA”).

I don’t care if it’s their intended goal or not; the actual effect of their rhetoric is “I want enough leftists to throw their vote away to a Russian plant so the US elects a fascist into office.”

They’re helping Trump win like they helped him win in 2016 by acting as a spoiler party, and everyone knows that Trump is a champion of the environment.

>Third-party fringe candidate who gets less than 1% of the vote having dinner with Putin, Trump’s national security advisor who was later arrested for lying to the FBI about his ties to Russia, and several major Russian political figures before an election in which Russian interference provably helped Trump win.

>The US president acting in an official capacity and meeting with the leader of a major world power.

“They’re the same picture.”

Boy, Russian bots Jill Stein stans are really tripping over each other to see who’s the biggest, dumbest idiot, aren’t they?
