Isn't Jill Stein's party the Green Party too? And Ralph Nader?
I guess there's no longer a question about what their political goals have been.
It's time to just identify them all.
Nader, Stein,....etc

(25,982 posts)Ruth Bader Ginsburg was much more than her SCOTUS seat. It's appalling to show such callous disrespect to the RBG as a person, not to mention the Ginsburg family.

(9,127 posts)Paid homage to RBGs support of womens rights, the ACA, the rights of governments to enact and enforce environmental laws and regulations and the rights of individuals against plutocratic oligarchy.
If this sorry little screed is typical of Green Party thinking, it is clear that much, if not all of the Green Party, has become a cardboard Potemkin village that exists to benefit grifters and divide progressives votes to the benefit of Republicans and so-called Conservatives.

Explains the lack of respect shown lately to RBG, less than 1 week following her passing.
Here they are in all their shameful truth.

(15,325 posts)They stayed silent in that knowing & are still repeating the same m.o. now in 2020.
Who's campaign was stacked with Stein mgrs?
Ya. We always knew it too.
THIS is why they ran their campaign against HRC.
This is what they wanted instead.
"Burn it all down", they shouted

(1,609 posts)People have had post removed here for " bashing progressives'' when criticizing the green party. I don't believe the green party is progressive at all but some people here do.

(15,325 posts)Whomever honors their words over our icon of Women's & Human rights, RBG, owes us some explanation.
These are the words of the NY Green Party.
Not mine. Ever.
I've posted no opinion of any other party.
These are their own words.

(15,325 posts)Yes, they had to issue a statement disparging RGB rather than honor her work.
Clearly by the words in the text from the NY Green Party, they don't believe RBG should be given creedence for her life's work in government.
They have declared that loudly in their statement.
I don't know how else to interpret the words of the tweet.
Perhaps someone else can address what they really meant because right now, it is damning & extremely offensive

The tweet is deleted now.. I didn't see what it said but from reading the thread it was fucking stupid.
betsuni
(25,610 posts)and compromised. In other words, establishment status quo. She believed in liberal values and in the fundamental structure of the system of government. Not revolutionary or transformational enough!
Also, they don't think the Supreme Court is that important in protecting progressive values, maybe for a few years more, but the population of the country is growing more progressive and will soon be reflected in state governments. Progressive legislations will replace conservative ones. So don't worry!
All nonsense of course.
Cha
(297,574 posts)Ridiculous. They have a "meme" & they're Sticking to it no matter how GD Stupid it sounds.
Please green party nutballs.. how's that revo goin' for ya?! Never mind I don't want to hear anymore of your Gaslighting BULLSHIT. Away with you.
Yes BIDEN is Our Nominee & he is VERY PROGRESSIVE.. he & Pres Obama actually got Things Done.. PROGRESS!
No thanks to assholes who sat home or voted for 3rd party LIES.
The Planet isn't that important to them, either.. nor are the People.. especially the poor ones.. and the ones who Putin's Puppet promises to take away their Health Care & Social Security.. like me & Millions of others.

(1,406 posts)I'll wait for someone to post the text of it. The Green Party has always been against Democrats as far as I can remember. If you thought they despised both parties equally, think again.
