Description: A picture titled “Russian plants” in a 3 x 3 grid with one of the grid items being Jill Stein, the rest are flora.
US Greens are damned traitors to democracy itself.
You can tell they aren’t serious by the lack of local political effort they put in.
(This post was accidentally edited in an attempt to reply to someone else, this is an in-exact re-creation of what the comment said)
Posting a link to a handful of names on sporadic ballots across the US is a dumb person’s idea of what “serious electoral effort” is.
Son, I am disappoint.
I remember that green party candidate in AZ a few years back had more funding from Republicans lmao.
They usually do.
What do you think a political party is?
If you think a political party (or “serious electoral/political effort”) is just “names on a few ballots,” there is no amount of crayons that someone can use to draw you a picture and get you up to speed.
Pick a candidate or GoTV organization to volunteer with for a while and come back after that experience.
Did do that, helped several greens get elected. The green party has more grassroots support than any dem pres candidate in history. You have billionaires, racist soccer moms, aipac, and no real humans on your side.

Do you have a source or was this bullshit pulled from your own ass?
Yes they are a much smaller political party, that doesnt mean theyre not putting in serious effort
Can't speak for many of the rest, but jade plants are from southern Africa. I demand geophylogenetically accurate memes.
You guys do realize that the whole world laughs at your inability to conceive proper left politics, right?
A) Jill Stein ≠ left politics B) “proper left politics” involves doing more than just running as a presidential candidate every 4 years funded by the political party in farthest opposition to your political agenda.
Alleged political agenda, just to make it crystal clear.
That's because we have a Russian plant at the helm of the only, let's be honest, sort-of-not-really viable third party in this country. We need an overhaul of our voting system to get out of this mess, like with RCV
Image thinking Russia is left-wing.
Imagine thinking that leftism is a coherent ideology, instead of an arbitrary list of disparate and often-contradicting positions.
Edit: lmao stay mqd, tankies.
Oh man! Making the russian flag out of her and using her hair as the white is golden!
It sucks that common mugwort is still illegal here in Indiana. Thankfully, there's a dispensary about 30 minutes away in Illinois.
What's with the focus on Jill Stein? Third parties aren't relevant and the number of people who vote for them is far overshadowed by the number of people who don't vote at all. There are better uses of time than this lame two minutes hate session.
Since Democrats are so corrupt they refuse to abolish the antidemocratic electoral college and have already lost two elections they had the majority of votes in.
Harris, while popular, is in a dead heat in several swing states with Trump and it's very likely she'll lose. Liberals think that having third party candidates takes away votes from Harris even through all evidence points to the contrary.
Since ~~Democrats~~ Republicans are so corrupt they refuse to abolish the antidemocratic electoral college and have already ~~lost~won two elections they had the ~~majority~~minority of votes in.
FTFY.
Because this is the time of year that Stein starts pushing herself as a candidate after doing nothing for 4 years, and this is an incredibly close presidential race where voting third party is dangerous. Stein herself is also extremely questionable as a candidate so of course people are going to talk about it. There is a vocal minority of Lemmings who are pushing Stein and other third parties very hard, so I can completely understand why others are pushing back with threads like this one.
What’s with the focus on Jill Stein?
She's a release valve for the Arab-American protest vote. Arab-Americans are concentrated in the Midwest. Kamala desperately needs the Midwest wall to hold in order to win the White House.
"Jill Stein is a Russian Plant" is going to become "Arab Americans stabbed America in the back" in a few months, particularly if Harris loses. We're just seeing the prelude to the anti-Muslim hysteria boiling up in the Democratic Party.
Libs seething that Greens won't compromise on genocide.
They're terrified, because the election is close and a reliable liberal voting block - Arab Americans - is increasingly disenchanted with a liberal leadership that's pandering to fascists.
If too many Deerborn, Michigan residents defect from the Harris ticket, liberals are going to be foisted with another four years of Trump. And then the Arab-Americans will be to blame, of course. Not the AIPAC lobbyists or the MIC merchants of death or the O&G land-thieves or the domestic white nationalists. Its those stupid Arabs and their pro-Russian Jill Stein agenda.
As a plant watcher, or whatever this is called, I can assure you that this chart will not help you recognised local flora.
I sat on a stinging nettle a few years ago when I had a mostly outdoor job. Now I am an expert in identifying them.
I must be too American to understand this one ^^;
Stien is the nominee for one of the worthless 3rd parties we have here. The only people who vote for her are narcissists who call trump Hitler but are okay with letting him win by throwing away their votes so they can pretend to be extra liberal. In some ways they are just as bad as trump supporters.
Divide-and-conquer just enough to let bush win, then trump.
It's because of these bOtH pArTiEs ArE tHe SaMe LoL mY pUriTeH assholes that we got the Iraq invasion, the Kyoto Protocol global warming agreement being ignored and discarded, the indifferent federal response to the Katrina disaster in New Orleans, children in cages separated from their immigrant parents, the sluggish response to Covid, etc.
The world an objectively worse place via republican excrement policies, none of which would have happened if these narcissistic assholes weren't enamored of the stench of their own mUh PuRiTeH! flatulences to see a clear and present danger in front of our noses.
In a way they're worse. At least MAGAs are open about being shitty people and don't pretend otherwise. Stein supporters will act smug and superior ("I didn't vote for Trump directly, so my hands are totally clean!") while they let Trump fuck everyone (Gaza included) over. They're so focused on what's happening across the ocean that they don't care about the dumpster fire happening at home unless they can use it as ammunition to push "BoTh SiDeS" bullshit.
This “Jill Stein is trying to spoil the election” makes no sense.
Jill Stein did not found the Green Party. If Jill Stein didn’t exist, the Greens would just choose another candidate. The outcome would be the same.
She is not an independent like Bobby Kennedy. Are you suggesting the entire Green Party is made up of Russian plants?
Wish tumbleweed was on there, considering how it was used to undermine American farms.
