Why does Holla Forums despise the US Green Party?

they're lowkey anarcho-prims

I'm voting for Stein.

theyre the only major anti-capitalist party in the US so i dont really despise them, would actually join them if they can actually solve anything, but like said, a lot of their members are hippie tier bullshit, and they're FILLED with liberals who dont even try to pretend to be socialists

I don't hate them, but they're pretty spooky with some of the alternative medicine shit that even Stein's been putting out there. Obviously, there's occasional concessions you have to take in order to still support a good idea, but that doesn't mean they're perfect.

They'e the best in the U.S., but it's that hippie shit I hate.

I'll readily point out their flaws, but I don't despise them anymore than I hate any other bourgeois liberal party. Hell, I'm voting for Stein for the second time in my life this November.

I don't despise them, but they're basically the hippie party rather than a legitimate radical socialist party. The people I think of when I think of "Green Party voters" are people like John Sakars and Rain Florence.

This could change, and there's nothing inherent to the Green Party platform that would prevent it from become a legitimate socialist party, but the "old guard" of the party are going to be a bit of an embarrassment.

Also, they're not very well organized, partially because of the shenanigans of said "old guard". I read an article from their convention that said that one of their seminars was literally breathing exercises and new age spiritualist bullshit, and this was supposed to be some sort of political/organizing training.

Political class under a populist/hippie guise.

Damn it.
I always want to like them, but then they do shit like that. I don't know why that's important when people can do that on their own time.

Don't they have idpol crap like reparations in their platform too? I mean I'm still voting for them this fall but still it's sad they're the best we've got.

They are liberals

You are right. A socialist party in everything but name is the only way to promote socialism in America.

Any and all organizations within the US that reference communism, Marx, or Lenin are irrelevant larping faggots.

If you at all care for reformism, our only choice is the Green Party.

Baby boomers

Useless, reactionary and crypto-porky. Potentially Fascist.

Oh, I didn't know they were Stalininists :^(

What can I say?

I don't like Green for many reasons.

Stein thinks wifi might cause cancer and we should look into it.

Reparations don't bother me tbh. It's more of a symbolic gesture than anything, and it triggers the fuck out of reactionaries

didnt you get banned for denying global warming?

They are reformist pieces of shit. They only put "socialism" in their platform so they could drag B████ fags into their dead-end party.

Nah. I think it's a pretty ridiculous assertions. Whites shouldn't be responsible for crimes their ancestors and race committed in the past. It sets a terrible precedent. It's an awful double standard. That kind of stupidy just enables right wing reactionaries because it justifies collective ethnic crimes. It can easily be used to argue that all blacks should be the responsible for the actions of a few lumpens that happen to share their skin color. I'm mixed and I wouldn't support that shit outside of post civil war reconstruction where it could have done a lot of good.

I don't see it as holding whites collectively responsible, as everyone's taxdollars would be going it. It's more along the lines of the government being like "sorry we fucked up with bringing slaves here, sorry we fucked up during reconstruction, sorry we didn't divide up all the old plantations and give em to you since property distribution is a huge contributing factor to poverty…but here's a token to show you we feel really bad about it!"

It's not going to be interrupted is the "government" doing anything. It still taking money from taxpayers to pay people for crimes never committed against them from people that weren't responsible for the crime. It's unjustifiable.

I don't

Holla Forums pls go

Oh fuck you asshole. I only said taxpayers because he mentioned tax dollars in his post. I haven't made a single racist argument. Reparations are just silly in a modern context.

It's not as if "oh, slavery is over, black people are now on our equal basis!" considering the property disparity has never been rectified and the capitalist system accentuates these problems.

Again, it's a symbolic gesture that does nothing to change the system, so I'm not exactly for it. But it still amuses me to no end when reactionary whites get so butthurt about the topic, even though it has an almost 0% of ever happening at least in our lifetimes

Dude. Like dude. Did you know that weed, can like, cure cancer? Duuuuude.

Dude, don't you know that vaccines cause autism?

Dude, I'd say that homeopathy is just as legitimate as medical science, in fact I'd say it's even more legitimate because it's from nature and out-dates our modern institutions.

Dude, man, evolved plants are, like, the devil man.

Oh yeah, and dude, like, some anti-capitalist stuff.

Oh, and most sane and many insane people are pissed about global warming too dude!

[spoiler] Green fuckers.

that last bit of html is always a doozy

Yeah I never said that generation poverty hasn't left black people at an extreme disadvantage that's why I think reparations were completely justifiable and would have done a whole lot of good during the reconstruction period. I just think reparations in a modern context while just create more tension. Look at how effective Ronald Reagan's bullshit about welfare queens was among the white working class.

THIS

see comrades, there are much bigger problems with the Green Party than their stance toward capitalism

...

sex "worker"

Yes.

Except I don't deny it, as long as we talking actual stuff of getting +0.3-0.5 meters of water by 2100, not doomsday scenarios of planet exploding because someone didn't turn off the light.

What I deny is the Green. Not their many many theories, but practices. Specifically:
- their practice of hysterical alarmism
- their practice of supporting dubious theories
- their practice of harassing scientists they don't like
- their practice of spreading absolutely nonsensical beliefs (picrelated)

And, above all, their practice of persuading people that we should bend over, otherwise Capitalists will not save the planet.


Fuck this shit. Even if we get all the ice melted, but destroy Capitalism, I'll consider it a good deal.

wouldn't it be cool if CPUSA went from an sjw movement to an actual communist movement

Well at least all these people, and I've heard the younger portions of the greens are better.

fuck the greens the only do shit every 4 years fucking useless for any change
there are only 2 parts we can work with

In 2008 the Green Party nominated a black woman for president to run against Barack Obama. Most of them jumped ship and voted either Republican, or for Hillary in the primaries.

I cannot into formatting.
