    That’s still a worthless strategy if those people can’t win right now, especially given the consequences of the right taking power.

    Can’t win if you don’t vote for them. Much better than your strategy of voting for genocide and then yawning at the death of thousands of children.

    You will find yourself incapable of convincing me that Trump is worse than Biden.

    Your votes for Democrats are what enables Trump to exist.

      They can’t win because no one votes for them. They peaked 20 years ago. Honestly, I’d have more respect if you were to simply eschew electoral politics altogether. That’s at least a more principled stance. The Green Party isn’t our savior any more than the Democrats are. At least the Democrats have a chance in this election, though, instead of some unclear future date which may never come. There are plenty of failed parties, the vast majority of which never got anywhere.

      Your votes are what enables Trump to win, rather than merely exist.

        Then vote for them.

        They peaked 20 years ago.

        Vote for another party then.

        Honestly, I’d have more respect if you were to simply eschew electoral politics altogether.

        That’s retarded. I have a vote and will always vote for the largest party with a good platform.

        The Green Party isn’t our savior any more than the Democrats are

        The threat of the Green party with your vote is the only way to pressure Democrats from the left. Your vote ensure we move right, great strategy.

        Your votes are what enables Trump to win, rather than merely exist.

        Republicans wouldn’t be in contention if The Dems weren’t freely and openly corrupt because you vote for them without question.

          I do. One with far better chances of at least limiting disaster right now instead of pie-in-the-sky notions of the Green Party coming to solve all of our issues one day. It’ll be too late by then.

          Your vote ensure we move right

          Certainly not when compared to the alternative of gassing it to the right under Trump. If you aren’t frightened by the prospect of another Trump presidency right now, you aren’t paying attention.

            Not that party, you’re voting for genocide, just accept that. There’s other parties like the PSL. Literally any left vote outside the duopoly is better than voting for right wingers like you do.

            You’re just naive and cant look towards the future, so in 28 you’ll be saying the same argument and complaining that Dems aren’t good. They don’t change because you vote for them, meaning they don’t have to change. It’s very obvious, you are very dumb.

            Certainly not when compared to the alternative of gassing it to the right under Trump. If you aren’t frightened by the prospect of another Trump presidency right now, you aren’t paying attention.

            Cry like the baby you are. Heard the same in 2016, will hear the same in 2028, either way you must accept you are a right winger and vote for a right wing party.

              Yeah, you just keep repeating the same absurdisms with no substance to help convince yourself you’re above others.

              You are dumb, you vote for genocide, you vote for the right, blah, blah, blah. Those are just words with nothing behind them, bud. I could say the same about you and be just as “correct” as you are. All you can do is lower yourself to name-calling because you can’t think of anything intelligent to say.

              You seem to be the one throwing a fit right now, so you calling me a baby is pretty rich.

                It is true liberals use the same arguments to elect economically right wing democrats, you keep falling for it.

                you vote for genocide,

                100% true if you vote for democrats who approve funding to Isreal, 3 bil a year.

                Those are just words with nothing behind them, bud

                Already sent you the links to prove that Isreal kills children, and how you vote for Dems that vote to approve funding billions to Isreal. You aren’t mentally capable of accepting that, it’s okay.

                You seem to be the one throwing a fit right now, so you calling me a baby is pretty rich.

                Go back and look at the book you sent because you’re triggered that someone calls out your votes for right wingers.

                  You’re here endlessly repeating the exact same talking points as seemingly your only persuasion, and yet you think that I fell for these arguments? Sounds like whatever political news “source” you use just makes the same talking points about the DNC instead of the GOP. If you claim that these arguments are necessary to “trick” voters, but you use them yourself to try to persuade me, then either you got tricked into supporting the Greens, or you’re trying to trick me yourself.

                  Your refusal to vote tactically doesn’t make you better or smarter than anyone else, if anything it indicates that your priorities are all out of order. It almost sounds like you hate Biden even more than Trump.

                  I got you to send a book right back lmao, all I had to do was call you too stupid to be able to. I wanted to see what I could write in about 10 minutes, the amount of time you said it would take to waste my vote. It was kinda fun.

                  If only we had politicians in the government right now calling for the end of Israeli aid. Oh wait…

                    Hypocritical of you since the only thing you have to say in response is “no this time I have to vote Dem because Trump”

                    I don’t spend money on sending my message out, Dems do, and it clearly worked on you.

                    Your refusal to vote tactically doesn’t make you better or smarter than anyone else, if anything it indicates that your priorities are all out of order. It almost sounds like you hate Biden even more than Trump.

                    I am voting tactically. Dems have to move left to get my vote. When they move right, they get your vote.

                    I got you to send a book right back lmao, all I had to do was call you too stupid to be able to. I wanted to see what I could write in about 10 minutes, the amount of time you said it would take to waste my vote. It was kinda fun.

                    Nope, I quickly quoted and debunked your CNN level talking points.

                    If only we had politicians in the government right now calling for the end of Israeli aid. Oh wait…

                    After consistently voting for it, and will vote for it next year as well. They care about killing little kids as much as you do.
