And this criticism of ‘the greens only show up every 4 years’ is in bad faith. The greens run in other elections as well, you just only hear about the presidential elections because that’s the only time they get some media attention.
This list has a bunch of school board members, city councillors, even a mayor on it. They do run in local elections, and even win sometimes.

No, it’s really not. The Mayor of Galesburg, IL, a town of 30.000 is the highest office any green politician holds in the US. This is fucking ridiculous.
By their own admission, only 130 Greens are currently in office in highly influential positions such as Zoning Board of Appeals Alternate or Cemetery Trust Fund Committee. This party is a fucking joke. And that’s the party whose presidential candidate accepts an invitation from Putin.
Noooo you must enjoy voting for our designated ghoul and voice your full throated support every day until November or else it’s basically a vote for Trump. Also, you can’t ask us to change any platforms whatsoever cause that’s divisive and a vote for Trump.
It’s really astounding to see how quickly Democratic sycophants mimic the MAGA folks they mock on the right. These are the same people that were telling those of us who wanted Biden to drop out that we were all secret Trump supporters paid by the Russians even though it was clear he was going to lose.
I’m going to hold my nose and vote for Kamala but I won’t shame people who can’t bring themselves to do it.

DNC komissars are using the same tactics, it is just politics 101… muhh side right, your side wrong bullshit while the two party regime is robbing us.
People who see no nuance are either zealots or paid shills aka bad faith actors, treat them as such.
Note how this conversion can’t be practically had in news or politics subs on lemmy…
It must be nice, being privileged enough to see who wins this election as a fashion choice instead of something that will affect your life.
I’m “lucky” enough to live in a state where my vote doesn’t matter at all. I’m completely free to not vote for genocide. What an awesome “democracy”.
