Why do people even care what a gross white supremacist thinks?
This is a real head scratcher.
Damn and after all Donald Trump did for him.
Very funny that this KKK leader endorsed the Green Party candidate because she was the only one anti-Israel. Something something horseshoe theory I guess.
Lol
You gonna lol at that while harris has been endorsed by cheney and tons of other fash trash?
I think it’s fairly obvious who the more fascist candidate is here. I think it says something that Trump is too fascist for Cheney.
Also, shoving Stein’s words in her face doesn’t mean OP agrees with those words, just that Stein’s words are particularly problematic at the moment.
Cheney almost certainly is concerned about Trump mismanaging US foreign policy, not his fashiness.
Yeah, 100%. Because it’s ironic.
Yes, because they understand what a threat to their own existence Trump is. They are doing it out of self interest.
David Duke just likes Jill Stein’s views lmao.
Cornel West 2024!!!
The funniest part about this is I had no idea David Duke was alive. He was the main villain of BlackKKlansman. Imagine living to see yourself get written as the villain of a hit movie.
Also, mandatory fuck David Duke and Jill Stein.
BlackKKlansman
TIL
A piece shit likes the smell of their own.
If you think this reflects badly on stein ask yourself 2 questions, did he endorse her because she’s also a white supremacist? Did she accept the endorsement?
The answer to the first is probably no since stein is a Jewish women so I don’t think she’d get along well with all the other white supremacists who think she’s sub-human. The reason he endorsed her was because she’s the only one who would end the war in Gaza and fight the “Jewish lobby”. If your a Zionist and believe that any action against Israel is anti-Semitic then yeah stein and Duke are the same. If you live outside that delusional world then you’d recognize dukes dislike for Israel and steins, (and most of the worlds) dislike for Israel come from two completely different values systems and world views.
The answer to the second is easier, No, her campaign rejected it and called him trash as soon as they heard about it.
So does this actually reflect badly on stein, or is this just the ravings of an insane person who’s trying to elect a Jewish woman to take out his imagined grand Jewish conspiracy? Critique stein if you want but this is nothing.
They share the same goal so it’s not a coincidence he’d endorse her.
Thank you for bringing logic to this thread!
I generally agree with you, but it does make her eat some of her own words as pointed out elsewhere in this comment section:
For real. If David Duke endorsed Harris, democrats would be crowing about it and saying they’ll take all the help they can get (see all the recent neocon ghoul endorsements).
lololol sure.
Yep!
Absolute bullshit
People weren’t welcoming Dick Cheney’s endorsement of Harris?
nope and you know that. they clearly said even these monsters think Trump is worse than their ideological opposite.
I saw quite a lot of “hey we’ll take whatever help we can get”.
🤡
A self portrait of the poster.
Are you suggesting that Cheney and Duke are equivalent?
No, Duke is a huge piece of shit, but Cheney has done immeasurably more harm to the world.
Edit: Ah, I forgot that to liberals, it is a greater sin to be an (uncouth) racist, than it is to be the architect for the deaths of a million people.
sHiTlIbS you mean?
Self identify however you want.
If one has more power, they are likely to do more harm in the world, regardless of how shitty they are of a human being. While I have no love affair with Cheney, he is not the absolutely piece of human garbage that Duke is.
You think that people here are defending Cheney, but really it’s you defending Duke.
What the fuck? Duke is a piece of shit absolutely, but Cheney has done real fucking harm to the world that you can measure in dead children. Cheney is worse by far.
What a load of bullshit.
At least David Duke wasn’t responsible for multiple imperial invasions.
I’m not defending Dick Cheney.
But you can’t try to argue that the Holocaust denying former grand wizard of the KKK wouldn’t do that if he was given the chance.
Hmm… I wonder why a certain user who’s been posting non-stop about third-party candidates for the entire lifespan of their account chose to ignore this particular article. One would assume it’s important for the voting public to know about this, no?
Here, I’ll channel my energy into a representative comment so you don’t feel left out.
“I’m not voting for her. You’re free to vote for whoever you want.”
“I didn’t write the article.”
<insert 40 paragraph spiel about fairness and lemmy always attacking them boo hoo>
You forgot to call me “friend” and channel punchable face energy with one of these 🤗 but I’ll give you an A for effort.
Thanks! :-)
Right?! Thanks, friend! :)
Here’s your chance. Defend the article.
They’re ecstatic to be on the same team as Duke, but as usual everything they say is meaningless bullshit with about the same value as a 10 second long wet fart
Stein’s campaign says it wants nothing to do with Duke, the former American Nazi Party member
Stein’s campaign manager, Jason Call, disavowed the endorsement and called Duke “trash.”
Dude, I didn’t even post the article. Maybe you can ask the person who did? Did you even look at the name of the poster?!
And what is there to “defend”? NBC News wrote an article that David Duke endorses Stein. I didn’t write it, produce it, edit it, publish it, or even post it to Lemmy. I have nothing to do with this article being on Lemmy.
Exactly what part do you want defended? That NBC news talked to someone? I’m unclear on what you’re trying to ask me to do. Thanks!
You constantly try to defend Stein and 3rd party voting. YOU posted the same exact article, remember, you linked to it. So I was giving you a chance to respond to the article on here that had traction vs your post that had zero. You didn’t, so that’s all I need to know.
What is there to respond to? I didn’t write the article. There is no rule that we have to “respond” to articles that we post or don’t post.
This article reported some political news. This is a political news community. So people post political news articles.
Not sure what sort of “gotcha” moment you are looking for here. Are you trying to imply that just because some racist wacko inserted himself into the news and said that he supports Jill Stein, that it has anything to do with me?!
Or what is it that you’re looking for from me? I don’t understand.
Dude, I didn’t even post the article.
Looks like I’m 2 for 2 already
Bingo!
Who are you referring to? I’m debating some “Harris needs to earn my vote. So it’s her fault if Trump wins.” idiots right now.
Unfortunately if I name this person there’s a good likelihood this discussion gets removed since the rules prohibit calling out bad faith actors, even the painstakingly obvious ones. So I’ll leave you with this: you needn’t look far to find that which you seek.
Hmm. I can think of someone who was recently accused of running two accounts. Something like bad mythical figure name.
Who got accused of running two accounts?
Removed by mod
My life got much better after I blocked that account a few weeks ago
You think that articles from Newsweek, AP News, CNN, The Hill, USA Today, and Reuters are “Russian propaganda?!” Really?
And why would I get paid to post news articles from news sites to Lemmy of all places?!
Absolutely no one likes you. Go away.
Well, if no one likes me, then shouldn’t be a problem for me to post here. And you can always block me too. Thanks! :)
I don’t have to explain anything to you ;)
Maybe a play on “omnipresent zealot”

I don’t know about you, but I’m saving this post for future citations.
and be sure to save this too:
Stein’s campaign says it wants nothing to do with Duke, the former American Nazi Party member
Stein’s campaign manager, Jason Call, disavowed the endorsement and called Duke “trash.”
Solid plan.
It’s almost like people argue in bad faith on the internet. Fancy that!
Omg 😱 you might be onto something!
Or some people just don’t agree with the echo chamber. Just because they don’t change their minds and vote differently than others, doesn’t mean it’s in bad faith. Thanks! :)
True, some people agree with former KGB agents.
Because it’s already been posted here and this community doesn’t allow duplicate posts. It’s also been posted in Politics Unfiltered.
I don’t know what user you’re referring to, but I’ve commented in this thread. And I posted another article referring to David Duke and Jill Stein. https://lemmy.world/post/20893592
I thought it was interesting, so I posted it. Thank you! :)
Ah so you were late to /c/politics. Well I suppose we all have busy days at work sometimes. You’ll get ‘em next time champ.
Wait, I thought Lemmy was under the impression that I post every 17 minutes, 24 hours a day?! And that I’m a team of people. Oh AND that I’m a bot.
So if all that’s true, how was I having a “busy” day at work?!
Look at you deflecting.
You average a submission every seventeen minutes and thirty-eight seconds and that’s public information.
Woah hey now all I said was you probably had a busy day at work. A little weird to bring up bots and teams of bad actors dude, chill.
People have said that about me. So I’m just wondering how all of those diverse viewpoints can be correct if I am at work and having a busy day.
I don’t recall having brought any of that up? At any rate, it seems like whatever your occupation is, it’s pretty stressful. That sucks.
I didn’t say that you brought it up. I mentioned that many on Lemmy say that about me.
My job isn’t stressful at all. Thanks, friend! :)
No, “Lemmy” isn’t under that “impression”. Are you trying to say your profile page is wrong, or that math is?
Stein’s campaign says it wants nothing to do with Duke, the former American Nazi Party member
Stein’s campaign manager, Jason Call, disavowed the endorsement and called Duke “trash.”
That is how it is done. Unlike Harris. Who went on a parade with Liz Cheney, and praised Dick Cheney for his work after they endorsed her.
Thank you!!
You do know that you need the other party’s voters to jump ship to win the election, right?
So why did Jill Stein reject David Duke’s endorsement?
You can also appeal to the disaffected Leftists jumping ship, or the non-voters. You don’t need to campaign to the right of your predecessor.
Dems already have the other party’s candidate.
I can’t laugh heard enough about this.
Someone should cross post this to a certain Satanist’s page.
Fake* Satanist
Unfortunate.
Luckily, I can still hear laughs.
ERMAGHERD dat typo!
Didn’t Richard Spencer endorse Biden in a game of 64D chess as a 5000 IQ play?
…
Still either way, Jill’s an Ableist Transphobe on Putin’s payroll and even if she wasn’t, she cannot win a single state under the current Electoral College so she could be literally the second coming of Christ and it wouldn’t matter.
He is not just any wizard. He is grand.
The grandest
And we all know Lemmy likes wizards.
I put on my robe and wizard hat.
I see a bloodninja reference, I upvote. 🤷
His hat is whack

Hahahaha. Of course he did.
Can we all finally agree that supportingJill Stein is being the 11th person at the table?
