      you’d think that would be the obvious mindset people who “care about human dignity” would have, right?

      i think their argument would be that conditions will materially worsen for a significant propirtion of the population, escalating the chances of the working class to become conscious of their chains.

    Remember, when the social democratic Part (SPD) and communist Party (KPD) of late Weimar republic Germany enabled the fascist government of Hitlers NSDAP in 1933. All because they were too focused on fighting each other, thinking that after Hitler, who is sure to fail, they will get greater voter turnout in their respective favor? Yeah, this here has the same vibes.

    Spoiler: they did not get their turn or voter turnout because there was no longer a German democratic state (just to make sure us-americans not well-versed in international history understand)

      No, but I do remember the liberal government appointing Hitler because communism was considered more of violence than bigotry… But hey that breaks your point.

    I am absolutely disgusted by this. Basically they are saying they intentionally and knowingly manipulated Palestinian Americans and pro-Palestinians into allowing a Trump victory and the doubling up of the growing threat of a trans, queer and POC genocide among much more violence.

    You may have different opinions from me about the third party voters and the culpability they carry, but I hope we all can agree that Jason Call and company here are blatantly evil and have blood on their hands.

    Hoping this can be a moment of reactionary leftist unity. Fuck every leader who actively worked towards MAGA. I’m doing my best to organize and do damage control, but not because some dumbass Jill Stein employee told me to. You should too.

        i don’t thing it has to be a nagging feeling even :/ i think this tweet basically proves it

        i mean he basically says “yeah we did this so trump would win”

        like yeah it’s with veiled language but only about as veiled as musk’s “my heart goes out to you”

      I’m not sure where you got all of that info. The tweet and article I read mentions none of what you listed him admitting to saying.

      I point this out not because I agree with him; I don’t. I point it out because these types of responses are misinformation, plain and simple. And we have enough of that from everyone else.

      We are to be held to a higher standard.

        It is not remotely misinformation.

        Your comment is by suggesting otherwise. If the Green party in the US were actually a serious party, they would be involved in more than just the presidential election.

        So please. Stop spreading lies that the Green party is anything but what they are. Stop pretending they didn’t contribute to the rise of fascism. Stop pretending they didn’t contribute to a Trump win.

        And most of all, don’t pretend that they didn’t know Trump would go all in on genocide.

            There is not one member of the green party holding a federal office.

            There is not one member of the green party currently holding a state office.

              Correct, however there’s more than a hundred in local offices. You people always say of they were serious they’d start from the bottom, grass roots. They’ve been doing that. Your post is misinformation created by your billionaire owners to dissuade any effective organizing in any way that would hurt them.

                Utter and complete nonsense.

                They haven’t been doing it at all. They put all the money into the presidential election - which they can’t win - blatantly, and by their own admission across multiple years to take away from democrats.

                They are a spoiler party. Thats it.

                I have stated nothing but facts, and your response is “but billionaires exist” - what in the wild wild west are you even saying?

                Complete nonsensical garbage. Not interested. Goodbye.

    You’re right asshat, we didn’t “re-elect genocide”, we (see: your bitch ass) accelerated it. I don’t fucking remember Kamala telling us Gaza was going to be a resort and all Palestinians would never be allowed to return.

    Man, it’s almost like I was right about all those 3rd party fucks that wouldn’t admit they supported Trump and didn’t actually care about the people in Gaza.
