    And the actual reason that Democrats are bloodthirsty after Stein isn’t about ‘protecting democracy™’ it’s not to prevent a Harris loss, or ‘splitting the vote™.’ It’s that if the green party gets 5% this election, they get automatic ballot access in all 50 states without having to fight for it every single election. It entitles them to public funding of elections. It would also grant them a podium at the Presidential and Vice Presidential debates.

      I feel like you are a connoisseur of awful ideas.

      Where do you come up with this stuff? You really put a lot of assumed beliefs/motivations on large groups of people. It’s like you’re deep in echo-chamber talking points designed to divide subgroups, but have never actually talked to “Democrats” or “liberals”.
