    If those “green voters” actually gave a shit about getting their candidate elected, you’d hear from them for more than 2 months every 4 years.

    But no, that was never the goal. Their goal was for Trump to win

      Green/PSL voters are literally posting in this thread. Maybe you have confirmation bias.

      And do what, canvas when there’s no election and get even more doors slammed in your face.

      Yeah the green party isn’t campaigning in the off season, but neither are Republicans or democrats because nobody cares. Half the people only pay attention to politics the week before the election.

        You know there’s more than just the presidency… Right? Right? Building locally gcssroots doesn’t mean showing up for the presidential cycle every four years. You understand this, right?

          IMHO the local communities on Lemmy are still way too small. So you’re mostly going to see discussion of national or global politics here.

              I’m not disputing that it’s few. I’m pointing out that this activity would be practically invisible to us.

        Then a 3rd party will never be viable.

            She got 782,528 votes or about 0.5% of the popular vote.

            You’re misrepresenting her votes by about 26 times less.

            Why is that?

            Wow, it’s almost like the goal wasn’t to get her elected, it was to make sure Harris didn’t get elected.

            Lolz!
