MODERATORS
71.0% of voters in LA county voted for Biden, and 26.9% voted for Trump in 2020.
Under Biden, oil production hit a new record high, beating even Trump's record.
So instead of voting Green to reverse anthropogenic climate change, the vast majority instead voted for parties that accelerate it.
The role of climate change in the catastrophic 2025 Los Angeles fires.
The entire point of the "Leopards weren't supposed to eat MY face" expression is that the republican party, GOP, or MAGAts as I like to call them, fuck over their own constituentes and then MAGAts thank them for the opportunity. Voting for Biden over Trump is a lesser of two evils. There is no "voting green" in the USA, unless you have some sort of ultimate plan to overthrow the two-party winner takes all system. We dont vote democrat because we like democrats. We vote democrat because people who actually want to help the working class always get canned and thrown out by the bigger fish.
It's not only Republicans voting to have their faces eaten, per the definition of this community: https://lemmy.world/post/21640658
Democrats constantly vote to make the biosphere unlivable as shown by how their actions are accelerating anthropogenic climate: like the US producing more oil under Biden than under Trump. Cue surprised Pikachu when their houses burn down due to record heat, record wind storms, record fires which climate scientists have been warning about for decades now.
You can vote for the omnicidal Democrats who supply weapons to genocidal governments, or vote for the omnicidal Republicans who are worse than the Democrats, or you can vote to reverse climate change. In 2020 Biden got 81 million votes, Trump 74 million. 84 million didn't vote - if they voted Green to reverse anthropogenic climate change, they could've gotten a non-omnicidal president, won the house, and a third of the senate.
You failed to explain how you plan to abolish the two party system that makes voting "green" unviable in the US. Not to mention Jill Stiens ties to Putin.

There are enough people who couldn't stomach voting for the Rs or Ds, to vote for another party that wants to reverse instead of accelerate anthropogenic climate change. See post you replied to:

If Stein is tied to Putin, then another 3rd party should get people's votes instead - the smaller parties have less ballot access, requiring more write-in votes. What are Stein's connections? Seems like the SIC's report doesn't make it clear what she did wrong.
