    You guys do realize that the whole world laughs at your inability to conceive proper left politics, right?

      A) Jill Stein ≠ left politics B) “proper left politics” involves doing more than just running as a presidential candidate every 4 years funded by the political party in farthest opposition to your political agenda.

      That’s because we have a Russian plant at the helm of the only, let’s be honest, sort-of-not-really viable third party in this country. We need an overhaul of our voting system to get out of this mess, like with RCV

      Image thinking Russia is left-wing.

      Imagine thinking that leftism is a coherent ideology, instead of an arbitrary list of disparate and often-contradicting positions.

      Edit: lmao stay mqd, tankies.

          Correct; I think tankies pretend leftism is a coherent thing (particularly one that includes them) because it helps them infiltrate, corrupt, take over, and destroy leftist projects.

          The negation of this fiction is an attack against them for that reason.
