she’s not wrong
Nope. She’s right.
Jill betrayed her country. 🤷♂️
Why? Even if everyone who voted for Jill Stein, combined with everyone who voted third party, Harris still would have lost the election. That’s how large the margin was.
You all even lost the popular vote. To Donald Trump of all people!!
So exactly how did she betray the country? Because she ran third party? Which didn’t change the election results at all?
And do you know how many people on Lemmy are now suddenly saying that we need a third party now, because they feel betrayed by the Democrats?
You didn’t lose the election because of Jill Stein. You are just used to hating her because Lemmy told you to hate third parties while under the mistaken impression that they would spoil the election. But they didn’t spoil the election. The Democrats did. lol
I’m sooo glad I voted socialist and stuck to my values. No soul-searching for me after the election! I did the right thing.
Is this all you have going on in your life?
Well, you are here reading it, so is this all you have going on in your life?
You’re one to talk, Jill.
Do you realize that even if every person who voted for Jill Stein or any other third-party candidate had voted for Harris instead, Harris still would have lost?
The margin was big enough that, even without third-party candidates, Trump would have still won the popular vote.
So why are you mad at Jill Stein when her absence wouldn’t have changed the outcome at all?
Oh to be clear I don’t care about her. At all.
What I do care about is the Green Party under her leadership ineffectually doing anything anywhere. There are candidates from a larger variety of political parties active in state politics than ever before in my lifetime. Communists, socialists, democratic socialists, libertarians, constitutionalists, independents, etc etc etc.
But the Green Party seems to enjoy spending all their money, time, and effort to do literally nothing outside of putting Jill’s name on the national ballot once every 4 years.
If the Green Party truly stands for what they claim to, they should be trying to affect grassroots change every year.
Well they have run in local elections and there are quite a few Green Party officials out there. But they should def by trying for more congress roles too.

I don’t believe you 🤷
Jill Stein couldn’t govern a fucking paper bag lmao.
Well, in the end it didn’t matter. Harris lost by such a large margin, none of the votes that went to Jill Stein would have mattered anyway.
I mean, you guys lost the freakin’ popular vote to Trump!
The majority of the United States didn’t agree with you or your candidate. And they showed you just how much they didn’t like you guys by voting.
Trump won the election, and the popular vote; the Republicans won the Senate AND the House.
You and other democrats need to change your methods and your attitudes.
Your bullying didn’t change my mind, or the minds of all the voters who voted for Trump. Remember when you all accused me of being a bot? And accused me of being Russian. And said I’d disappear after election day? Or that I was a team of people posting “propaganda”?
None of it was true, and it was just bullying, and you guys trying to quiet any dissenting voices.
That’s why you lost, friend.
And I’m still here, having the best time of my life.
She could argue 2+2 is 4 and the reply remains “Fuck off, Jill.”
Why? Even if everyone who voted for Jill Stein, combined with everyone who voted third party, Harris still would have lost the election. That’s how large the margin was.
Harris even lost the popular vote! Seems like Jill Stein should be the least of the Dem party’s concerns.
‘We’re so fucked that a divisive plant wasn’t even necessary’ does not excuse this divisive plant.
No more than it excuses the other dozen contingency plans to steal an election for a fascist, if Americans could be trusted to show up against fascism. The Idiot was already filing lawsuits and ranting about fraud. That’s awful if it works. That’s awful if it fails. That’s awful if, fuck us, it’s simply redundant.
I don’t think she was a plant though. The Green Party chose her. Do you think they are all plants then?
