You can read through this thread and easily find evidence as to why Jill Stein is

a) A bad fucking joke (no chance of winning)
b) A grifter (Koch money, Karl Rove and the Greens all go for tumbles in the hay together)
c) A quack (no, wifi does not cause kids brains to fry http://www.iflscience.com/technology/no-wi-fi-does-not-cause-cancer/)
d) and a complete fucking fraud. See the above.

Plus - she's a complete asshole, for saying Obama is no different than Romney and basically calling our President a war criminal. FUCK HER. Her current ads and statements make it clear, even though she has NO CHANCE of winning (even the fucking idiot herself knows this) her aim is to damage our Democratic nominee, which means her only electoral goal is to elect Trump.

Fuck her privileged, crazy, corrupt, lily-white limousine ass and the pouty little malcontent indigo kids that enable her.

You are telling progressives who do not support Hillary to fuck off Gore1FL Aug 2016 #35

No, I'm telling Jill Stein to fuck off. Are you saying she's a progressive? DanTex Aug 2016 #43

I am saying you posted a divisive OP and should be ashamed. Gore1FL Aug 2016 #51

No, if you are willing to risk Trump wining then you care nothing for progressive causes. Demsrule86 Aug 2016 #265

If the Stein voters are not progressive as people on this thread (and others) contend Gore1FL Aug 2016 #267

Any vote for Stein is a vote for Trump...one less vote for Hillary. Demsrule86 Aug 2016 #275

Or one less for Trump based on the argument that she isn't progressive. Gore1FL Aug 2016 #279

It does not work that way. Demsrule86 Aug 2016 #286

So they SAYYYYY. But when you walk like a duck, talk like a duck, & look like a duck... AgadorSparticus Aug 2016 #297

They are loooong gone. There's no catching that bus no matter WHAT we do. AgadorSparticus Aug 2016 #374

So then they aren't hurting Hillary by not voting for her if they were not intending to anyway Gore1FL Aug 2016 #375

Make no mistake. It is MEANT to hurt Hillary. But fortunately they are irrelevant. AgadorSparticus Aug 2016 #378

Yet we have to discuss for 3 days the merits of disparaging them... Gore1FL Aug 2016 #379

Because you drag it on. You are responsible for that. Congratulations. AgadorSparticus Aug 2016 #380

They are progressives. People are claiming Stein is taking them away from Hillary as voters Gore1FL Aug 2016 #385

I'll ask again, since you seem determined to ignore direct questions skepticscott Aug 2016 #459

What about for down ballot races? Gore1FL Aug 2016 #462

My argument is the same as the one I made below skepticscott Aug 2016 #465

So why take actions to drive them away? Gore1FL Aug 2016 #338

If you want them as allies and voters, why should they be driven off? Gore1FL Aug 2016 #369

The fact they are running ads in swing states shows they will never be allies Demsrule86 Aug 2016 #393

They are part of the liberal coalition that should vote Democratic. Gore1FL Aug 2016 #395

They are a seperate party and run their own candidates Demsrule86 Aug 2016 #487

You are going around in circles now. And I am going to call you out on your incivility. AgadorSparticus Aug 2016 #430

I am not going around in circles. I have said we should be civil. I still am. Gore1FL Aug 2016 #431

It is called TOS. AgadorSparticus Aug 2016 #433

I am familiar with it. In fact, there is a whole section on civility: Gore1FL Aug 2016 #434

Incivility is not tolerated when it is directed at democrats. The rest are free for plucking. AgadorSparticus Aug 2016 #435

You forgot about this part: Gore1FL Aug 2016 #436

Key words are Democratic coalition. The green party is not part of that. AgadorSparticus Aug 2016 #437

Yeah they are. Let me explain how the two party system for president works. Gore1FL Aug 2016 #438

Is that why the green party put out attack ads on the democratic nominee? AgadorSparticus Aug 2016 #439

I am talking about the voters, still. Gore1FL Aug 2016 #440

Quit hiding behind the word civil. You use it for your own agenda. AgadorSparticus Aug 2016 #441

I am not saying you are uncivil You are arguing that it's a good idea. I am not sure why. Gore1FL Aug 2016 #442

I didn't say it was a good idea. What I keep saying is that you don't get to tell people HOW to talk AgadorSparticus Aug 2016 #443

I am free to tell people my opinion. It's my opinion that calling people names is silly. Gore1FL Aug 2016 #445

You just like to harass people then. AgadorSparticus Aug 2016 #446

I am not harassing anyone. Perhaps you are thinking of someone else Gore1FL Aug 2016 #448

The only divisiveness is your dictating how people should express themselves. AgadorSparticus Aug 2016 #452

I am asking people to refrain from name-calling. The name calling is divisive, to be sure. Gore1FL Aug 2016 #453

They can call green officials whatever they want. You seem AgadorSparticus Aug 2016 #454

It's normal adult behavior not to call people names. Gore1FL Aug 2016 #456

You miss the point entirely. AgadorSparticus Aug 2016 #460

You consider suggesting that we not call people names here, harassment? Gore1FL Aug 2016 #464

It is called free speech. Quit harassing people here. AgadorSparticus Aug 2016 #472

Where have I harrased people? Gore1FL Aug 2016 #477

I am not defending the Green party. I am suggesting that being uncivil is not useful. Gore1FL Aug 2016 #506

It is also normal to call people names in their anger. AgadorSparticus Aug 2016 #461
