    There is a time and a place for n-parties in this crappy political environment we are subject to, but this election is simply not it.

    Which is the same thing that have said for the last 50 years. Every single election, it’s variations of. "Oh yes, there needs to be change. But not THIS election. THIS election is too important!

    50 years. So no, not believing that anymore. The time to do what I believe in is right now.

    It’s easy to get jaded, but it’s best to push Republicans out of the picture and foster a more progressive green party in future elections.

    Ok what about all the years that Democrats have been in office? Clinton was two terms. Obama was two terms. And all the ones before that? No, fam. Not trusting that any more.

    I’m not telling to to sit this one out or whatever - you do you, but I do ask you to think of what party you are actively trying to cannibalize

    Good, cuz I’m NOT sitting this one out. I’m voting for the party I believe in. The Green Party. And I’m not “actively trying to cannibalize” any party. What? How on earth are you getting that I am doing that, by me voting for the party I believe in?!

    I’m voting for Jill Stein. Because I like her. Because I like her values. That’s it. No grand conspiracy. I’m voting for who I want to. As is my right.

    Oh, and for conversations sake, I don’t care about this shame game they are playing right now. This is trivial nit-picking and neither newsworthy nor thread-worthy. Both sides, sure, whatever. There are greater topics like democracy, human rights, voter rights, labor rights etc that are on the table and this "both sides’ nonsense doesn’t not hold up.

    Agreed. Why people are focusing on this or the couch or calling people “weird” or whatever is beyond me. People, we have REAL issues to deal with. And both parties are scraping as low as they can to fling some mud. It’s crazy. lol
