U.S. Green Party, World Green Parties, Green policies, news, and updates on environmental, social, Green economic issues.
The two-party system is failing us. While Trump escalates nuclear threats against Iran, Democratic leadership refuses to take real action. We’ve seen this cycle before—funding conflict instead of demanding peace.
There is another way. The Green Party takes $0 from the military-industrial complex. We stand for international law and human survival.
Stop the warmongering. Join the movement for humanity. Join the Green Party 🌍🕊️
Whelp. I guess all we can do is make sure Trump wins then, amiright folks? I mean, if you gotta pick one, you may as well make sure as many people as possible get killed.
Or pick third party. Ya know, if enough people chose third party, then third party would have a bigger shot at winning. How has ignoring the third parties out there worked out so far?
What would that accomplish? At least in terms of electing a 3rd party president, that is? Without a single representative in Congress or the Senate, how would they get their legislative agenda passed? Electing a 3rd party as president, would result in a lame duck administration. Whoever actually controlled Congress would simply ignore the wishes of the president, and enact their own legislation...and the president would have no power to do anything but veto all of it. Literally nothing would get done for the next 4 years. How does that prove to the public that 3rd parties are even effective? If anything, it would prove the opposite.
If a 3rd party wants to even have a chance, they need to fill more seats starting at the bottom, and work their way up to the highest office...not start at the top, and work their way down.
This isn't even a matter of principle, either. Without 3rd party support at the state level, there's no guarantee that they'll be given fair treatment in local elections. All the shenanigans that the two main parties get up to, to keep 3rd party candidates out of the race, are because those elections are controlled by the two main parties at the State level. Until there are more 3rd party representatives in State legislatures, they will always be locked out of certain races.

Good! I want that to happen. So all the simps who worship the Democrats can see that the Democrats don't really care about working-class people, and that they are no different than the Republicans.
I already know that, but I want everyone else to find that out. Then people can finally start electing more 3rd parties across the board. Let's do it.
I'm ready for the Democrats to unmask themselves.
