I figure I'll vote PSL again like I did last time since they seem to be among the most principled leftist parties we have in this hellscape. I've seen a lot of support for Jill Stein but iirc she has some very weird reactionary conspiracy-brained views. How we feeling? Is supreme running this time around?

edit: to be clear I assume most of the based parties will not be on the ballot in most states, I've written in my picks before and I'll do it again KKKopmala knifecat

    The PSL is also anti nuclear, but in the "nuclear power is built on exploitation of mines in Africa" kind of way.

    Honestly, I saw an article recently that said China is building the equivalent of a nuclear plant every week in renewable energy, so nuclear seems kind of obsolete at this point anyway.

      They’re testing thorium molten salt reactors and those seem like a cool advancement in energy generation

        I'm not a nuclear scientist, so idk... maybe? But China has the productive forces already developed to implement solar on a massive scale today, and I think that's the example the rest of the world needs to learn from.

          China recently opened a thorium test reactor IIRC, hopefully they can make it efficiently scalable and start exporting them with Belt & Road stuff.

      also the USA has good places for big solar farms in for example california, no need for nuclear
