Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

MODERATORS
ah, yeah classic green party shenanigans unfortunately. I have beef with the green party for this exact reason, but at least you're voting.
We have beef with Democrats too. They fight harder to keep us off the ballot than they do to get themselves elected.
based, we should unite, greens and dems together would change literally nothing, but not having the greens party exist would arguably be more productive :)
The only thing the greens have ever done is fuck over germany's power grid. (this might be a slight bit of hyperbole, but still)
Greens have a done lots of a great things at the local level.
We can't break into the national picture because Democrats and Republicans are corrupt, unfortunately.
honestly i could see that, local level greens government seems like the one place it would probably be effective. Maybe they should just stop running for federal positions and focus more on local positions.
The primary reason they can't break in is because the system is effectively two party, and everybody else is dead in the water to begin with.
One party, as evidenced by the fact that both parties rule as conservatives.
as compared to socialist/commie parties, yeah.
but the chances of socialists and commies taking power of the US government and managing to refactor the entire government is so low it will probably self destruct prior to that, so we should probably work within the bounds of the government we have currently.
As far as moderate lefties go, we've got a really good line up this time around.
I hope they're as good as you think they are.
well in terms of policy they're pretty good, tim walz and kamala line up pretty well, and they both have plenty of experience in the fields that matter. In terms of platform they've got basically the perfect media machine under them.
I suppose we'll have to see what happens when they get in office, if they do, but it should be a pretty good run.
