the US green party has *always* been a dangerous farce.
There is no Green Party anymore. There is only a con artist with ties to Russia running a conservative-backed psyop designed to siphon votes from actual progressives. www.salon.com/2024/09/23/j...
The Green Party leader has hired a GOP consulting firm and worked with Trump-affiliated lawyers
didn't have to be like this! even setting aside European PR examples, the Green Party UK exists in a first-past-the-post 2 party system and has managed to not act as a spoiler for the right, does solid local politics, and is not a Russian puppet. greenparty.org.uk/2024/02/24/o...
It is different now. GP has been an actual party, with actual competitive primaries & everything You can argue, & I think I'd agree, that it was dangerous farce then, too But now it appears it's been captured by a personality cult, & I'm not sure what that means, but it doesn't mean anything good
Exactly.
That is startling news. Ever since Ralph Nader in the 2000 election I won’t vote for a third party candidate.
It is hard to explain to European friends just how.... warped... the american Green Party is. I'm not sure if Canadians even understand (or if their version is just as mutated)
