    “The Dems are like the GOP but they don’t hate women and gay people” is less of a gotcha than you think it is when you don’t even deny that Stein is a fraud.

    Kind of just tells us what you think of those issues.

      That’s the thing about paint - sometimes it peels off of whatever shitty surface it’s covering.

          Pretending as if it’s a binary choice is the reason why liberals end up compromising with nazis in the first place.

            It is a binary choice on election day, and even if it you believe in third party viability on principle Stein is still a fascist stooge.

              Just curious - does compromising/working with fascists make you a fascist stooge even when you’re a liberal democrat?

              Just want to make sure we’re not operating on any double standards

                Nah, just a collaborator. Biden, for example, got to be president, which at least let him stop the fascist invasion of Ukraine.

                Stooges are like collaborators only they’re a complete joke that can’t even win a single House seat, and would let both Ukraine and Palestine be genocide by dictators.

                  stop the fascist invasion of Ukraine.

                  Lol, did he, though? And by the same metric did he also ‘stop’ the fascist invasion of Palestine?

                  and would let both Ukraine and Palestine be genocide by dictators.

                  Weird how those are still happening then.
