    They have existed for 40 years and never held federal office nor ever won state level office as a green and remained green . The 8 state level folks that have ever served in 40 years consist of hilarious shit like winning as a green and then switching parties and winning as a dem switching to green and losing.

    It is literally 40 years of continuous failure with absolutely nothing to show for it.

      It’s better than any other third party. And given you’re voting for the corporate destruction of the planet if you vote dem or repub, they’re the choice to go with if you’re not yet ready for PSL.

      Sorry, no one with a conscious can vote either dem or repub. That leaves third party voting for those that still want to waste an hour one every couple of years.

        It’s nothing. Absolutely nothing. Worth nothing. Accomplished nothing. It’s like its a wonderful life but as if George Bailey walked around town and found out that everything was as good or better without him.

            Voting Dem gave us clinton obama and biden 20 years where we didn’t have amazing progress but did make small movement in the right direction and avoided 20 years of abject stupidity. We are far healthier and more prosperous than if we spent 40 years pissing away our votes on nothing.
