      Uhhhhh kinda. I did vote for her once but let’s be honest it’s a protest vote more than anything. Much ink has already been spilled about how the system is hostile to third party candidates and why.

        I remember the 1980s when the Republicans were accusing their political opponents of being commies or “pinkos” or some secret agents of Russia, but I never dreamed that Red Scare nonsense would get resurrected in the Democratic Party. Pretty funny. You aren’t as different as you think you are.

          Um, except Jill Stein has verifiable ties to the Kremlin.

          Also, I’m not a fucking Democrat I’m a fucking socialist.

          Also, the red scare was in the '50s and '60s, not the '80s.

            Um, except Jill Stein has verifiable ties to the Kremlin.

            Stein was investigated as part of the probe into Russian interference in the 2016 election, and she was cleared of any wrongdoing.

            Also, I’m not a fucking Democrat I’m a fucking socialist.

            Sorry for the assumption. I heard Democratic Party talking points, so I thought you were a Democrat.

            Also, the red scare was in the '50s and '60s, not the '80s.

            Conservatives were still paranoid about Russian agents in the '80s. That was my point.
