Also just following the green party a bit and educating your self about them... you learn that the green party is as focused on selfish personal horse race politics that deals with power plays, as the dem party (though on a smaller scale) instead of actual change.

This political cycle, Green party had a chance to radically push the Dems on palestine, by putting up a candidate that would drop out if Dems changed their position on support for Israel.

Jill Stein rejected it.

Just the fact they rejected it shows to me that they're not serious about actual political change. They just want to be a spoiler. They continue to only run in general elections instead ofnpushing in states.

So I guess i have no home party, but Ill vote for the lesser of two evils still.

This is incredibly dishonest. The Greens actually did the compromise thing in 2020 and didn't go as hard so Dems could beat Trump.

In return they got Democrats doing Genocide and AOC Pelosi now yapping about how Greens are "predatory" honest because they dropped in the 2020 polls.

Democrats can not do Genocide they don't need to Greens to bow down for them.

In return? Dems have always been for genocide. Joe Biden has been terrible for Israel Paleatine.

Dems are better on this issue than they ever have been (Biden excluded) due to activist pressure, no thanks to Greens.

Pelosi actuall said in March that we should limit sales to Israel. I don't think people realize how incredible that is.

Which is why Harris is saying she's going to keep sending bombs to israel to burn Palestinian babies with and she's signaling that she wants to start a war with Iran right?

Pelosi actuall said in March that we should limit sales to Israel. I don’t think people realize how incredible that is.

Ok... Did they do it?
