Everyone defending Stein needs to ask themselves why in the world they would ask for votes for trump if you aren't voting green.
There's only one answer and just because you don't like it doesn't mean it's not true.
A-fucking-men.
They can say they're voting green because the Democrats are too conservative for them, but if that's their go-to excuse then I'd say it's time to dump them now no? The party they support is just a lie to get conservatives in office.
Funny how she only pops up during presidential elections and doesn't seem to give two shits about the green party during literally any other election.
I voted for Jill once, and then she came out against vaccinations during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic and I realized she was an idiot.
She's as much green as she is dressed in green - just empty platitudes for people obsessed with the "sanctity of their body".
I'm still formally registered with both parties, but I get invited to vote in the Dem Primaries way more often
We need actually competent third parties, just being on the fringe doesn't make you competitive
It seems your claim about her being against vaccines is false.

The rating says false, but the more you read of the article itself, and the many on-the-record things she's said in interviews throughout the years, the more clear it becomes that she talks out of both sides of her mouth; Perhaps so she doesn't alienate the anti-vax portion of her constituency.
Not surprising, to me, as she's historically been perfectly comfortable talking out of both sides of her mouth:
Jill Stein’s Ideology Says One Thing—Her Investment Portfolio Says Another
Look I'm not the smartest person but I genuinely don't know what the answer is. Can you tell me what page of the back of the book it's on?
It's on page 69420 huehuehue.
The answer is: she's either a puppet being paid to help conservatives win power by taking potential Democratic voters, or she genuinely wants to help conservatives win power by taking potential Democratic voters. There's no reality where she's progressive or "left" of anything short of fascism.
When every goddamn election is down to like 13 people in some swing state then every vote matters. An exaggeration of course but not by much...
Oh yeah I remember how the green party caused Florida to be just barely conservative in 2000 when the supreme Court blocked the recount.
It really sucks to see.

The supreme Court and Roger Stone stole the 2000 election in Florida. Al Gore had more votes once a proper recount was done. It was a completely stolen election blaming a third party is ridiculous
I got 2 downvotes so far but this is a sincere question
The answer is that Jill Stein is almost none of the things that people are accusing her to be in this thread. She didn't tell anyone to vote for Trump over democrats. She isn't Putin's puppet or a Russian spy just because she had dinner at the same table as Putin once. She never was anti-vax (i think she said people should be allowed the freedom to choose for themselves). She isn't a spoiler candidate and voting for her isn't a vote for trump.
All this shit is propaganda that's worked very well on democrats in the US.
Oh she's definitely a spoiler candidate, the question is whether she's doing so intentionally.
