Green politicians from across Europe on Friday called on U.S. Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein to withdraw from the race for the White House and endorse Democrat Kamala Harris instead.

“We are clear that Kamala Harris is the only candidate who can block Donald Trump and his anti-democratic, authoritarian policies from the White House,” Green parties from countries including Germany, France, Denmark, Italy, the Netherlands, Ireland, Estonia, Belgium, Spain, Poland and Ukraine said in a statement, which was shared with POLITICO ahead of publication

    because i don’t recall saying that to you “months” ago, i only joined lemmy few weeks ago after getting tired of ads and brigading everywhere on reddit

    anyway did reason these people gave for not voting biden don’t apply to harris ?

    infact we never even voted for her in this or 2020 primaries. she was picked over warren as vp because lobbyists blocked her as she didn’t took there money. she had like 200 votes compared to 3 million for warren. she is the dnc nominee because of superpacs and now we owe her vote despite her atrocious four years as vp ?

      And now you’re ignoring this part:

      people like you

      But I suppose if you take the part you did quote out of context, your righteous indignation works a lot better.
