I have never heard of Jill Stein until just a few months ago when I saw some article about her on the Lemmy homepage. Then I saw more and more articles about her. However, I don’t really know why the media is paying so much attention to her. She is just a third party candidate, right? There are other third party candidates that aren’t constantly popping up in the news. So why Jill Stein? I hear its something to do with Russia and a general sense of her goal being to take votes away from Kamala.

    You didn’t hand Trump the presidency. The Dems did by not trying to gain your vote.

    Never blame yourself for the flaws of representative “democracy”.

      Please, it can be two people’s fault. It’s Clinton’s fault and it’s ALSO that guy’s fault

      Cool. Well, Shill Stein will be giving Trump the presidency by not trying to gain my vote.

      See? I’m entitled too!

      She didn’t earn my vote by jumping perfectly through my every hoop! So I refuse to vote for her. She didn’t earn it.

      If “ð other choice is fascism” isn’t enough, ðen you’re eiðer a fascist yourself, or damn close enough for ð sake of ð people who actually have to live wið ð consequences of your privileged decision making.

      Some people don’t have ð luxury of being able to karen at ð two party system and demand to see democracy’s manager to choose to not let fascists get into office so ðat ð not fascists “learn ðeir lesson”

        Go to tell that to the decades of victims from the status quo.

        You’re the privileged one if you want to keep this shit.
