    Yeah, we tried that, in 2016. We saw: Trump won, stacked the courts, dismantled public services, rolled back taxes on billionaires and shifted the tax burden onto the working class, dismantled pandemic watchdog labs which directly lead to the pandemic, and that’s just scratching the surface. How did Dems respond? Biden.

    We tried it, we saw, it was an abject failure that played right into the hands of the far right. You’re either politically illiterate, or a bad faith actor trying to make the country mask-off fascist by splitting the left

      False. The Libertarians got over 3x the votes of the Greens. We didn’t try anything lol https://www.fec.gov/resources/cms-content/documents/federalelections2016.pdf

      No, we didn’t. A pathetic attempt to vote for Bernie in primaries and then have him tell everyone to vote Clinton is not trying. Had he told us to vote for Greens it would be different. You’re coping so hard to support Dems.

      Your strategy has consistently failed. You’re too stupid to realize that or you are working for the Dems.

        Alright dude, keep shilling for the far right. That is what you’re doing, whether you’re doing it on purpose or because you’ve fallen for the propaganda. Your strategy failed and we’re all worse of for it. If you keep advocating the same strategy that’s sure to fail, then you’re just a pawn for the fascists. I don’t really care whether you’re a fool or malicious, I’m done with this brainless nonsense.

          Oh the delicious irony.

          Your strategy failed and we’re all worse of for it.

          Just proved you wrong with a pdf, you know real life data in reality. Once Greens get 10% we can say we tried my strategy.

          There’s only one thing we know for sure, your strategy has consistently failed to oppose the Republicans, and you still support it.

              Dems are fascist capitalists so that’s you, not me. I’m the one that understands the basic definition of democracy and will express it by voting for someone I agree with.

                Are you smoking crack? Dems are a lot of unsavory things, but if you’re suggesting they’re equal to Republicans on the fascism scale you’re either unbelievably idiotic or a bad faith actor. The longer you talk the more you seem like the latter, so these responses aren’t even for you; they’re for the onlookers who might be confused enough to think your argument makes sense.

                Leftists: this person is either an idiot who doesn’t understand US elections, or is deliberately trying to help the far right. DO NOT vote third party in the general election, the only thing that accomplishes is splitting the vote on the left which actively helps the right. All this “Vote your conscience! Show Genocide Joe you won’t support him!” rhetoric is designed to confuse you so Republicans win the general election. They are actively making the country worse for women, minorities, and the working class, don’t let these trolls equivocate “Not progressive enough” and “Actively evil”.

                The Dems aren’t great but the Republicans are orders of magnitude worse across the board. There are many ways to support third parties and progressive candidates in order to benefit the left, voting third party in the general election is NOT one of them, and only HURTS leftists. Project 2025 is not a joke, if Republicans win this November we may not have another fair election again.

                  Leftists: DO NOT vote for Democrats. This person is a paid DNC shill or could be incredibly stupid, probably both.

                  The Dems were infiltrated by Republicans, and you support their right wing policies.
