    She’s fucking siphoning votes away from the candidate closest to her supposed views, in a close election where the concept of democracy is at stake. Beyond-obviously. You think you just can just handwave facts away but you never will succeed at that with your campaign of bullshit. You want to imply the threat is that she can win which is laughable. Pretty much all of us see who Shill Stein is.

      “Closest” is doing a lot of work there.

          She’s kind of ideologically incoherent and I’m certainly no supporter of hers, but she is far to the left of both of them.

          Hitler-lite is closer to her position than Hitler-delux, but “closer” is doing a lot of work there.

            I don’t actually understand her ideology, but the other candidates are literally Hitler

            The Lemmy Lefty archetype in full form.

              Her ideology is just a mishmash of moral positions, I understand that just fine. I just don’t respect it.

              The other candidates want to do genocide and start a world war, though, which makes them comparable to Hitler.

                  I consider her policies moralist, I don’t think she has a theoretical foundation.

                  Many of her policies would be at home in a leftwing government, like the jobs guarantee and debt cancellation and the rights to food/housing/healthcare, but that doesn’t make them Leftist. These are just moral positions. I think they’re good, sure, but I don’t think she has a real plan to make them happen.

                  Workers’ party or bust.

            I don’t understand what point you’re making. My point was clear-- if you actually wanted a small fraction of Stein’s ideas to have a chance, you’d vote for Harris. Lemmy users can pretend all day that spoilers candidates aren’t real but that’s ridiculous, of course they are.

              Harris is running to the right of Biden in 2020. The point is to emphasize how far she actually is from Stein and that you’re using “closer” in a really loose way to hand-wave the gulf between them. Vote for Harris if you want, but I want you to know you are voting for Hitler-lite to stop Hitler-delux.
