    A leftist that points out inequality inherent in the system? What a strange thing to encounter on Lemmy. I’m positively flummoxed as to how this came about.

      If you ask anyone from .ml, I’m not even a leftist. I am pretty dead set against Donald, whereas they (and Bibi) want Donald elected.

              Jill Stein is not going to be president. Your assertion is in bad faith or ignorance.

                  No, she won’t. And hopefully I voted for viable candidates down the sheet because I’ll have lost that vote.

                  She’ll be president if enough voters to overwhelm the EC’s red shift vote for her. Which will not happen with FPTP. There are 46 examples of this not happening over a couple hundred of years. Including her, specifically, in 2012 and 2016.

                you literally accused people who said they want Jill Stein to win of lying and actually wanting another candidate to win. that’s bad faith.

      Leftists carrying water for fascists? Definitely not a strange thing to encounter both on Lemmy and in history.
