    You mean Jill Stein who shows up ever 4 years, runs for the president, siphoning off 2 to 3% of the liberal vote over a single issue, collects a check, and then disappears for 4 years. That’s not a real third party, that’s a grift.

            No you didn’t. In a 2 party system that’s not how this works. You basically became a no vote and in a 2 party system, a no vote helps the party you don’t want the most.

            So what happened 45 became president and you got a even worse genocider.

            Do I like that my choice was a little genocide or a lot of genocide? No

            And I’m glad your feelings are soothed because you didn’t vote for genocide, but in the end did your vote help the Palestinian people of Gaza? NO

            In fact your vote probably made it worse

              I really enjoy when you libs explain a 2 party political system to me. Thank you!

              I don’t know if you’ve noticed but in the latest round of genocide, the vast majority of killing and damage was done under the democrats.

              It’s disgusting you appeal to the suffering of Palestinians to support your candidates who enabled the suffering. It’s honestly the craziest argument liberals pull out. There’s mass graves of babies in Gaza delivered by the weapons your president sent to a genocidal colonial project. And you have the nerve to say that my vote made it worse.

      She can’t siphon votes that were never going to the DNC to begin with. Where’s any of the DNC leaders right now when we have ice arresting and killing citizens, trump running all over the constitution, a house rep tweeted today that someone should tell trump to do his job, and if she’s not that someone elected into office to do just that. Jill on the other hand is actually attending protests in support of the working class.

          Was last in Wisconsin protesting against ICE. Trump is beating the drums of war, where are democrats that are actually in office that can stop it?

            Article. Proof that she was there. I just searched Jill Stein Protest, Jill Stein News, Jill Stein ICE protest, on 2 different search engines and got one news article that was from the Daily Kos asking where is Jill Stein. So unless you can provide independent verification, I don’t believe you.
