    This is the reality.

    Keep talking about stein being “labeled” while everyone else is talking about the reality of her actions…

    She sits with Putin, she doesn’t get elected, and multiple times she only just spoils elections.

    You want to attack a “duopoly” but what has Jill Stein done other than reenforce the worst half of that duopoly ? I mean that’s her legacy. Reinforcing the system and making it worse not moving anything in a better direction. So why keep backing that person?

      I’m not voting for Stein—I’ve shifted my support to Rachele Fruit of the Socialist Workers Party, who aligns more closely with my socialist convictions.

      But I still stand by Stein’s efforts to shatter the stranglehold of this corrupt two-party system.

      You see, the fear you harbor of someone disrupting your precious status quo speaks volumes. Stein may not have won anything major yet, but she’s rattled the cages of power, and that’s more than most are willing to do.

      The legacy of fighting against the duopoly, of challenging the complacency that keeps the rich in power and the workers down, is one I’ll always support, whether it’s through Stein or anyone else who dares to defy the system.

        Nah I don’t have any worries about a precious system or who or whatever glass jawed bullshit you are clinging to.

        I am asking straight out, do you see her shattering anything by running in that system?

        What has she done to build a ranked choice coalition? Sounds more like she just happily participates in the very system you claim she “shattered”? Jill Stein reinforces the duopoly by participating in it alongside Putin and not offering any other suggestions.

        You are taking the biggest shill for the system and claiming them as a saint.

          It’s curious how someone supposedly so harmless can provoke such a strong reaction. If she’s truly just a shill for the system, why do her efforts to challenge it draw so much anger?

          Brother, again, I’m not personally voting for Stein. But I still support her aim to disrupt the duopoly—something that clearly has some folks rattled, despite their denials. And I have never claimed she is a saint. I’m voting socialist this year.

          And let’s be clear: breaking the system isn’t about instant success but about sowing the seeds of real change, which terrifies those who cling to the status quo.

            She does not. This fanaticism does. This is moronic cosplay that is so on-its-face logically flawed that it’s frankly kinda funny to explore and to just frankly keep asking you to keep talking…

            So this is how we “break the system”???

            By all means continue…
