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.

[-] null@piefed.nullspace.lol 13 points 3 months ago

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

[-] IndustryStandard@lemmy.world 10 points 3 months ago

She should sell out to large donors so she can buy ads like the Democrats then you will like her.

[-] null@piefed.nullspace.lol 11 points 3 months ago

Whaaaa my preferred candidate is unpopular and it's everyone else's fault

[-] mrdown@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago

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?

[-] null@piefed.nullspace.lol 5 points 3 months ago

Did you rehearse that shadowboxing routine in the shower?

[-] mrdown@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago

What this has to do with anything?

[-] Bleys@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

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?

[-] null@piefed.nullspace.lol 6 points 3 months ago

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

[-] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

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.

[-] mrdown@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago

You lost because of the economy and borders. Genocide supporter

[-] Seasm0ke@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

takeaway could be "the democrats would rather lose to fascists than oppose genocide and gain third party voters"

[-] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 3 months ago

Which is the reason they (dnc) didn't release the post election findings. Of course their die hard supportors won't acknowledge or accept that

[-] monkeyjoe@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

They just said they found proof and didn't actually wanna release it. I'm sure that means nothing.

[-] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 3 months ago

They just said they found proof and didn't actually wanna release it. I'm sure that means nothing.

Proof of what? Their failures in general or something else?

Because they clearly don't want to acknowledge anything they did wrong to fix it

[-] monkeyjoe@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

The failures of their party. But it's not failure when they know better and actively choose not to, while shaming those who want it.

The DNC is controlled by the same capitalists as Republicans, they just pretend to be nicer.

[-] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 3 months ago

I still find it hilarious they say they will reach out to constituents more when for 2024 they just ignored the feedback they didn't like

[-] monkeyjoe@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

And any feedback was called unrealistic goals (to stop spending money in genocide and support policies that people like to hear).

[-] IndustryStandard@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

Nice projection of your own argument.

[-] null@piefed.nullspace.lol 1 points 3 months ago

"Projection of your own argument"?

What is that even supposed to mean...

[-] IndustryStandard@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

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.

[-] null@piefed.nullspace.lol 2 points 3 months ago

You are complaining about people not voting for Newsom because Newsom is not popular

I am?

[-] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

Cool comment.

Doesn't make Jill Stein electable.

[-] IndustryStandard@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

But it does for Gavin Newsom and Kamala Harris magically.

[-] prole 2 points 3 months ago

No need, just a few dinners with Putin, and suddenly she's flush

[-] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 months ago

Hello, senator McCarthy.

[-] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

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.

[-] mrdown@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

Also proving thst Harris lost because of the issue of economy and borders not anti genocide people

[-] kreskin@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

I love that "banned from the community" banner you're sporting. It makes every one of your comments into happy ones.

[-] monkeyjoe@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

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

[-] webpack@ani.social 8 points 3 months ago

didn't one of her campaign runners say that Kamala winning the election would be worse than trump winning.... imo Jill Stein is a horrible candidate

here's the first article I found on Google. like if u think Kamala and Trump are equally bad you might be delusional. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/jill-stein-sees-no-lesser-evil-between-harris-trump-interview-2024-10-07/

[-] mrdown@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago

Kamala praised hitler Gaza surrender plan. She is more pro trump than anybody here

[-] webpack@ani.social 6 points 3 months ago

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)

[-] mrdown@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

She agreed with trump plan and her plan was to let israel destroy the rest of Gaza

[-] Korne127@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Ehh, Jill Stein really isn't that great. John Oliver has also made a bit on her. Howie Hawkins was a really great candidate though

[-] IndustryStandard@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Establishment jetster John Oliver did a bit on her? Well then let me discard all the facts and activism Jill Stein has partaken in.

[-] Korne127@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Nah; that was just to show how easy it is to inform yourself before you spread nonsense like that
