@freemo I did and it does, you just refuse to see beyond your fantasy of Stein winning. I'll check back with you in November when she gets 0 electoral votes and 1-3% of the popular vote. </this>

@freemo You struggle to understand the reality of that illusion.

@freemo Your vote has the impact of 1 vote. Use it wisely so we don't end up with the worst possible president. The day after that, help the Green party win an election higher than small town mayor and begin building it into a viable alternative, and push for IRV in your state elections. All of that is better than popping up every 4 years smugly complaining about the presidential election candidates from your place of privilege.

@freemo So well over 100 years ago. Not how it's worked in over 100 years, but keep your fingers crossed.

I did but you ignored it. Scroll back up. You got confused by the thread.

@freemo Cute, when's the last time that happened? Your selfish, sanctimonious need for what you perceive to be perfect has real world consequences for real people. It must be nice to be in such a privileged place.

@freemo Is this the first presidential election for you as a voter? If so, please look at the history of third party candidates. It isn't at all realistic to think that Stein would get a single electoral vote when she needs 270 to win. Again, a terrible and barely democratic process, but it is the current process.

@freemo I was responding to this:

"Everyone voting for anyone other than Trump or Biden will probably be the most effective single action people could take. A full solution would likely require a lot more, but that will be the closest you get to a solution with a single act."

@freemo That wasn't me

@freemo That makes zero sense. Jill has no chance at all to win, Biden does. Your voting selfishly to feel good about yourself while ignoring the reality. We have the system we have, it's very flawed but it's not changing prior to November. Trump winning doesn't help Gaza, Biden winning may not satisfy your need for a perfect solution but it will be better. Your vote for her would be a terrible for people of color, women, LQBTQ+, immigration, the justice system, judge nominations, the climate...

@freemo Also a reminder, this is what gets Trump elected again.
