      Lmao for real. Yeah sure it's a protest vote, but spoiled ballots and meme write-ins don't actually convey a coherent message. You may as well be a crank as far as the lanyards are concerned when they're trying to figure out how they lost to Trump twice. A sizable socialist third party showing demonstrates that their strategy of courting "centrists" has consequences and the left will genuinely discipline them.

      honestly... psl fails the national question in their socialist reconstruction plan and has had quite a many blunders like that anti-mask video they deleted a while back. reminds me of the "ML" socialist democrat party in sri lanka that just got elected but supports the tamil genocide, in the impossible instance they gained power i worry theyd just paint the settler colonial state red by not having that indigenous vanguard or at least stressing their autonomy and choice to not play a role and still have mass amounts of land back. post stalin USSR had some of these problems too but because they basically function as social democrats i think current day bolivia or sri lanka is the better analogy. for the purpose of disrupting the duopoly i think the green party is the best bet at least imo no hate to my good friends in psl mostly just not a becker or claudia fan

      There are so few of us freaks that us voting for sinwar, nasrallah, xi or psl will not matter. Might as well have fun with it and maybe have a 0.0001% chance to scare some votecounter who might recognize sinwars name. Seriously, there are hundreds of us.

      And I say this as someone who votes for my countrys communist party. Maybe I will write in putin next time and make some russophobe boomer seethe.
