Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

I'd love to see this person maintain this energy after the election. I seriously doubt it.
Yeah I have a feeling that they are going to disappear after November 5th.
Not to worry. They’ll reappear a few months before the next election cycle.
In fairness, there won't be much to post on in this area of topics once the next President-elect becomes the next sitting President.
What I'll be keeping an eye on is if this person posts after the election but before the inauguration, say regarding the news on recount events and such. Remember how long Stein stayed in the news back in 2016 because of the recounts?
And best of all, almost all of them (the posts) are on communities that they made themselves.

Clinton's mistake was campaigning in Texas instead of Michigan, not 'not punching left enough'.
If you want to win over green voters, maybe run on some of the popular things that the greens are running on instead of guilt tripping.
If you want a third party to not get hate, maybe don't vote for them and ask them not to be so horrible.
University of Wisconsin-Madison Elections Research Center Director Barry Burden ...
predicted Stein may not earn as many votes in 2024 as she did in 2016 when she "benefitted from progressives's dissatisfaction with the political establishment," particularly now that demographic appears "newly energized by the Harris campaign."
So the article points out both a hope for Harris supporters and also a valid counterargument to their strategy of trying to keep Stein off the ballot.
"This election is different than 2016," a longtime Michigan Democratic activist told the Washington Examiner. "Both Stein and West are threats to Harris in Michigan because they are appealing to Arab American voters upset over the Biden administration’s Middle East policy to vote for them rather than Harris."
"Studies of Stein voters show that many of them would have not voted or would have supported Trump had the Green Party candidate not been on the ballot," Burden said. "Memories of 2016 also ignore that the Libertarian ticket drew even more votes than Stein and probably hurt Trump more than Stein hurt Clinton."
I.e. in other words, instead of trying to keep Stein off the ballot (and offending these folks into staying home and not voting) Dems would be better off actually trying to win these folks votes by engaging with them and trying to give them what they want.
So again, hope for the Harris campaign, especially with the recent endorsement of Emgage Action, that these voters can still be won over at the last minute.
