like Trump, she is VERY old
I wonder where she got the money from?
Uncle Putin?
Dick Cheney? Oh wait, that is the war criminal an actual Presidential candidate is campaigning with.
That’s a nice change from the genocide stuff!
With all this stuff about Jill coming out, it’s no wonder all the Lemmy.ml and Hexbears are so supportive of her. She’s a Russian asset!
What is the Russian word for Wumao?
I'm not saying she's not a Russian asset, anyone could be including the people spreading this rumor with no supporting evidence. It's become a joke online that Democrats will now call anyone they disagree with a Russian asset.
For some reason, on one hand Democrats will claim that peace negotiations between Israel & Palestine are a good thing, but how dare she say that peace negotiations between Ukraine & Russia are important too.
Jill Stein has called Putin a war criminal while Kamala campaigns with a war criminal (Dick Cheney).
Do you get paid by the word or paid by the post? If it's by the post, you should bother with all the nonsense.
If you have some magical proof that I'm a shill then post it, otherwise shut up and stop pretending that you're anything more than a thoughtless blue MAGA cultist.
Stop trying to make blue maga a thing.
blue MAGA
There's your proof. It's like a shibboleth.
Lol your defense of her is "anyone could be a Russian asset!" is like a textbook denial list. What's the next stage?
The next stage is for you to call me a Russian agent for saying something you don't like. Textbook denialism would be you presenting facts showing she is loyal to Russia, or working intentionally on their behalf, and then me denying it. Thus far your "evidence" is a Salon article with a headline that doesn't even represent the story and makes baseless accusations.
Nah you're just a lier, that's all.
I didn't realize I presented evidence of anything, but ok.
You haven't. That's my point is that the blue MAGA cultists here are claiming Jill Stein works for Russia but they don't have any facts to support it. They're mad that facts don't support their feelings.
When did "Dick" Cheney campaign for Harris? He said he was voting for her rather than the felon. That's it. Liz Cheney is the one who spoke at a Harris campaign, not her father.
He didn't. And Stein refused to say Putin is a war criminal. John Richard is in here lying through his teeth.
Yeah, you're wrong and spreading misinformation like the average cultist.

There are multiple articles showcasing where she has, but what you won't find is a single article of Genocide Joe or Kamala calling Netanyahu a war criminal. They're saying... You did such a good job killing all those women and children Netanyahu, here is a $8.7 billion dollar thank you check.
@[email protected], your thoughts?
I thought that username felt familiar, so I clicked through to their profile. Yup, already blocked lol.
I think he’s still under his temporary ban ;)
Awww…temporary? Why?
Honestly, I think the mods should be promoted to sainthood for the level of patience they've shown with Monk (who as of late runs what seems to be a community related to MGTOW but without the toxicity called MRTOW) is so beyond what I feel I'm capable of. I hope Monk appreciates the level of leeway they've been given here.
Is this MRTOW/MGTOW just mask-off incel shit? I think it would fine to ban that level of toxicity permanently.
I’m honestly not sure if sainthood is the way I’d put it. It feels negligent to me. But in fairness I’d love to hear the mods perspective on what they consider the threshold for trolling. It almost feels like it’s a secondary offense here. Like they won’t ban you for trolling, it’s got to be trolling aaaand [pejoratives|hate speech|etc].
Only 21 hours to go before we get graced with their wonderful presence again!
Blyat!
I'm sure the usual suspects will be along shortly to explain how this isn't what it absolutely, positively is.
Probably at the stage where it turns into ‘it doesn’t matter since she won’t win anyway, this is just a protest vote to show support for third party.’
Third party that are just Russians. What a pathetic way to protest.
Democrats: "If you don't vote for Kamala you're a Russian."
If you actively go to the polls and while you're there – instead of voting for Kamala Harris, the only viable candidate against Trump's pro-Russia fascism – you choose to vote for a Russia-planted spoiler candidate and you live in a state that's not safe red or safe blue, then yes, you are pro-Putin's regime, and you unequivocally suck ass as a person.
Let he who hasn't dined at the same table as Putin cast the first stone.
What do you mean that's everyone but Jill?
"Anything to beat the 'duopoly' of political parties, even if the party is tainted by neo-fascist dark money!"
Absolutely wild mental gymnastics lol
Our biggest offender would, but they're currently serving a 3-day ban for Sealioning (public mod logs are awesome).
Is there a link for this?
I never see positive posts about Kamala because centrist Dems know that there isn't anything they can post about her that will be actually appealing so their only tactic is to beat up on the anti-war leftist candidate as much and as often as possible
You're kidding, right? Right now, the front page consists of whatever stupid shit Trump has done recently, downvoted crap pushing Putin's favorite "anti-war leftist candidate," and positive news about Kamala Harris and her campaign.
What positive news about Harris? All I've seen is her make statements assuring the population that she's right of center
