Libs seething that Greens won't compromise on genocide.
They're terrified, because the election is close and a reliable liberal voting block - Arab Americans - is increasingly disenchanted with a liberal leadership that's pandering to fascists.
If too many Deerborn, Michigan residents defect from the Harris ticket, liberals are going to be foisted with another four years of Trump. And then the Arab-Americans will be to blame, of course. Not the AIPAC lobbyists or the MIC merchants of death or the O&G land-thieves or the domestic white nationalists. Its those stupid Arabs and their pro-Russian Jill Stein agenda.
I still remember back in January? February? Libs were telling me that Gaza wouldn't be a factor in this election, because nobody really cared.
This isn't still true? What percentage of people genuinely plan to vote Green this election? Lemmy is the only place I've seen Jill Stein mentioned, at all.
They will 100% compromise on war crimes. It'll just be for ~~Ukraine~~ Russia rather than Israel. Edit: make sure I'm clear on who I'm talking about.
Why not neither?
Why not, indeed.
According to Jill she was there to...
So ironically she was actually there talking about a very similar subject in a way to this exact post, war in the middle east. Good to see she hasn't changed her policy, I guess.

Can I get a dinner with Putin where I tell him he shouldn't do bad things in the Middle East? Because as far as world leaders are concerned, Jill Stein is only slightly more important than you or me, unless Putin has a much more specific reason.
I bet if you were the Green Party's (or even the Libertarian's) nominee for the 2016 presidential race you could, in 2015, yes.
Probably not now but things have changed a little since then if you haven't noticed lol.
Dude, that statement above is brazenly self-serving. She wasn't there to do anything about the Middle East. You only get dinner invites with Putin if he expects to get something from you. Doubly so when Michael Flynn is sitting right next to him.

And? World leaders meeting with each other is not the problem. Jill Stein is not a world leader. She's barely anybody on the world stage.
Is this the best you got?
She was a presidential candidate, at least. You can deny that she's effective in any way and I will too but acting like she works at a Wendy's in Des Moines and is meeting him is disingenuous. You have fun though lol.
I'd pick a random worker at a Wendy's in Des Moines over her.
And you're saying that would be less weird because they're more of a world leader? Ok yeah makes sense.
