Lmao the green party isn't going to do jack shit. They're completely unserious about politics. They aren't even trying to build up an infrastructure in all 50 states that lets them get suffused into local and state politics. They aren't even aiming for Congressional seats, which would be necessary for an actual Green president to get anything done.
They're just anti science grifters who think wifi causes cancer, entertain vaccine skepticism, and demonize nuclear energy -- the latter of which could be a major asset to stopping global warming. Newer designs are even able to consume nuclear waste, meaning an anti nuclear position results in more waste than we would otherwise.
I actually had my local Socialist Party USA chapter kick me out, ban me from their facebook, and publicly announce that I'm a rape apologist because I wouldn't tell people to support an openly transphobic "Vaccines Cause Autism" Green Party candidate over Joe Biden.
Then support the PSL. I work with the Green party to improve it, because that's how democracy works. It's okay you don't understand that.
I'm afraid all of us don't have that much free time. But hey, if you can get them to stop being anti science and actually become a serious party, I'll consider them.
Just don't expect me to accept the Green Party's many imperfections. If you don't accept the Democrat's imperfections, then you should perfectly understand.
Send them an email and discuss your issues. They are the only voice in politics that supports the science of climate change.
Democrats don't have imperfections, they are fundamentally flawed because they are corrupt.
Until Stein vehemently recants her remarks about WiFi causing cancer, vaccine skepticism, and nuclear fear mongering -- or the Green party completely disavows her and those remarks -- it would be a total waste of time.
It isn't my job as an engineer to tell "the only voice in politics that supports the science of climate change" to stop endorsing completely anti science positions. Nor is it on me to try and correct a willfully anti science party. They need to show good faith, and they've done nothing whatsoever to suggest any of that to me.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2suVx9cDKw She is the one with a medical degree, so you don't have any authority over her opinion, sounds reasonable for her to make her stance out of concern, even if she is wrong.
I'm also an engineer, and that's why I use my knowledge to try to influence the party.
