    “Today we commemorate a year since the beginning of a genocide, so sad. Vote for me so the person who’s been illegally trying to sabotage peace deals can indirectly get elected and just glass Gaza already! Heard there’s great real estate opportunities coming up!”

          I’m no longer voting for Stein—I’ve shifted my support to Rachele Fruit of the Socialist Workers Party, who aligns more closely with my socialist convictions. As I have said multiple times. https://lemmy.world/c/swp

          But I still applaud Stein’s fight to break the stranglehold the Democrats and Republicans have on this country. It’s amusing how much people panic when someone dares to challenge the status quo.

            LOL - You realize Fruit is only on the ballot in 6 states, right?

            Louisiana (8)
            Minnesota (10)
            New Jersey (14)
            Tennessee (11)
            Vermont (3, as Independent)
            Washington (12)

            She’s apparently a write in candidate in 7 more:

            Alabama (9)
            Iowa (6)
            New Hampshire (4)
            Oregon (8)
            Pennsylvania (19)
            Rhode Island (4)
            Wyoming (3)

            But wait, I thought you were in California? So you really can’t vote for her anyway… Well, I mean I guess you CAN but it’s the same as writing in “Mickey Mouse” at that point.

              I live in a different state now, so now I get to vote for her! Which is also why I started a community, x.com, and Mastadon accounts for the party. Now I can be much more involved. And it’s awesome! :)

                Well, hey, props from moving from a dead end candidate to an even deader end candidate I guess.

                When 1% of the vote is just too mainstream! LOL.

                  If they continue their average of 79.2 submissions to Lemmy a day their submissions will surpass the 6,791 votes that Alyson Kennedy got for running as 2020 presidential candidate for the Socialist Workers Party (United States) on November 2, 2024!

                    Despite the fact that voting for them makes it easier for the person LEAST aligned with your values.

                    One person can beat Trump, they aren’t a fringe candidate.

                    Fortunately, none of the states where she’s on the ballot are going to be even close.

                    Louisiana (8) - Trump (2020 - 58/39 Trump)
                    Minnesota (10) - Harris (52/45 Biden)
                    New Jersey (14) - Harris (57/41 Biden)
                    Tennessee (11) - Trump (60/37 Trump)
                    Vermont (3, as Independent) - Harris (66/30 Biden)
                    Washington (12) - Harris (57/38 Biden)
