‘Useful Idiot for Russia’: DNC Decides to Go Off on Jill Stein

i'm glad the "you're pro-genocide if you vote anything but 3rd party" morons finally shut the fuck up around here

edit: LOL

have you had ANYONE turn around and say " you know what, you're right!" on lemmy? or ANYWHERE?

gtfo russian cumfarts

Jill is here to collect some donations then disappear for 4 years. Again.

There’s photos of Shill Stein dining with Putin. How much more evidence do you need?

Stein’s campaign manager, Jason Call, said via email that “the Democratic Party has no respect for actual democracy or the voting public,” calling the attack a “tired and sad commentary on a party that refuses to serve the American people with good public policy.”

Yes, this is true.

“We’re seeing a desperate empire now. We are seeing a desperate colonialist settler empire whose ways of the world and whose control over the world has been lost,” Stein said as she inveighed against U.S. healthcare, housing, and military policy.

This is also true. But she has no shot at winning and is literally only capable of helping the orange bad. We need rank-choice voting. Until we get that, she should shut up and drop out. Especially with the threat of the orange bad.

Narrator: the DNC is correct.

Forget debates. I would pay good money to see an episode of Jeopardy with Harris, Stein, and Trump.

The people who vote for her seem like the useful idiots to me, she herself more seems like a traitor to the old values of her country and the purported causes of her party. She loves foreign autocrat dictatorships and there's nothing green about helping republicans win elections.

Jill has ruined a lot of credibility.

Universalmonk bouta flip a table.

I doubt anyone dumb enough to vote for Stein are Harris voters anyway. So now than likely a vote for Stein will be one taken for Trump. So Trump and Putin can waste all the money they want on her campaign.

They’re not wrong, but they could stand to recognize that some of their own policy shortcomings opened the door to her challenge.

Any of the Stein shills want to explain to everyone why Trump (among many other awful people/companies/etc) attorney Jay Sekulow was representing The Green Party in their case against the State of Nevada?

Anyone?

Jill Stein wouldn't say that Putin is a war criminal. You should really listen to how she dances stupid the interview with Medhi Hassan.

The fallout/optics from that blatant fear to speak clearly about Putin was bad enough it seems that she's now made a follow-up statement to lightly say the phrase, with qualification (after checking with daddy) and associating it only with Syria and refusing to mention Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

She is their stooge.

Jill Stein needs to go, condemning Putin should be the easiest thing in the world to do for any non-Russian.

The only place I ever see/read anything at all about Jill Stein is on Lemmy.

Anyone in this thread supporting stein is a bad actor. She will not win. Voting third party for a presidential candidate is the definition of meaningless and if you’re even vaguely left-leaning just vote for the non fascist-incompetence candidate.

If you’re genuinely set on voting for Jill Stein, ask yourself: how many other Green Party candidates have been elected to state houses and judiciaries around the country in recent years then stop and ask: how incredibly stupid are you?

Russia is bad and all, but she's much more directly a useful idiot for Republicans who are not only more directly focused on directly harming the people Stein's campaign is targeting, but have a significantly greater ability to actually accomplish it. No one needs to trust the US establishment that Russia is bad, they know Republicans and how they're bad.

Also, DNC, why are you making this news on The Bulwark? Way to undercut your message.

then stop bitching and unfuck your electoral system

All these articles attacking Stein my make people not vote for her, but they aren't going to convince anyone to vote for Harris.

Media Bias Fact Check | bot support

The propaganda has been on rapid fire lately, let me guess, they're actually becoming a threat to the American establishment?

Is the DNC actually trying to woo Stein voters? They could shift swing states into Blue States, but for some reason they think bashing her will get her voters?

Has the DNC learned nothing from 2016?

Fine, I'll vote for a different 3rd party candidate. Clearly the DNC just wants to make sure we don't vote for Stein and they don't have an issue with anyone but Harris, right?

It's funny because if Democrats just did what people wanted in the first place people would vote for them

If all you have is "Russia" lol

a vote for Stein is a vote for Trump

It's also... not a vote for Trump.

If Stein has 50% of Trump's votes, Harris still wins, by a knockout.

No news about third parties when they were not threat for red and blue

Seems a little cruel.

Her policies are far better than the DNC's, though I understand that part of being a candidate with zero chance to win is being able to say whatever you want without consequence.

I don't think there's any pragmatic reason to vote for Stein, since it's so incredibly important that Trump not win, but I think calling her a useful idiot isn't helpful.

Maybe she wouldn't be so popular among Muslims if, you know, Dems weren't erasing their existence. Just Sayian.

The DNC screwed themselves forcing a drug Baron on their public. Jill Stein isn't a traitor to the Republic like The Entire Democrat Party is, so she has a very cromulent chance, and a valid campaign unlike the Traitors to the Republic Democrats. Their scared ff Jill Stein because they made a shitty decision and it's haunting them that they forced it on us. Eat a bag of cheetos dicks, Traitors to the Republic garbage. I look forward to your trial.
