Honest question. What do you do for someone who's sole issue right now is to stop the genocide? There's only one candidate going for that afaik, and it's not Harris or Trump.

Who would that be?

And more importantly, do they have a chance in hell of actually accomplishing anything meaningful beyond lip service?

Jill Stein? Unless I'm wrong. It's nuanced, but her position is to stop the genocide.

The Palestinian genocide, she doesn’t give two fucks about the Ukrainian one though.

I’d bet money she doesn’t care about the Palestine one either, but it sure does take votes away from Harris.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Yeah. I agree.

You know she has no authority to do anything about it right? She’s only campaigning on this issue because she knows damn well she won’t get elected. This flimsy promise is enough to keep many people locked up from voting for anyone besides her and her baseless savior complex nonsense. All she is doing is siphoning a lot of votes from the one person that will actually be given the authority to change things.
