In reply to the discussion: So, apparently, Jill Stein is becoming a problem for Harris [View all]cadoman

Yeah it sucks to see that low single digit block of voters who should be voting for Harris and all she can do for Palestine--if they just had a bit more sense/education/wisdom.
But the fact is this voting bloc gets a bit of a high from "being different" and "going against the grain". It's part of their identity. We waste so much energy on them that would better spent courting low-resistance independents and undecided voters.
Pursue the people who have shown an interest in being pursued, rather than those who demand a platform shift that would render Harris unelectable.

I didn't either. It is just that this situation is beyond our control and as always Trump is worse.
