The Abandon Harris movement that sprouted late last year out of the widespread outrage over the Biden-Harris administration’s support for the ongoing Israeli war on Gaza has officially endorsed the Green Party’s Jill Stein for US president.
The endorsement is the first of its kind for Stein and the Green Party, with the Abandon Harris campaign being the first major Muslim-led political group to endorse her campaign this election cycle. Last month, a smaller group, the Muslim American Public Affairs Council NC, also endorsed Stein.
“We are not choosing between a greater evil and a lesser evil. We are confronting two destructive forces: one currently overseeing a genocide and another equally committed to continuing it. Both are determined to see it through,” the Abandon Harris campaign said in a statement released on Monday.
Well, first of all, you seem to be the outlier, in my experience.
I have made accounts on all three of those lemmy instances and have been instantly banned from them for trying to have a conversation like we’re having right now.
Hexbear called me a “wrecker” and the others said I was a shitlib. Their patience is non-existent and their paranoia has become their personality. And it’s really off-putting to those of us who would like to actually discuss this stuff like adults.
Yes, we may call you guys “tankies” but surely you must have thicker skin than that, right?
I’d like to see examples, it’s easy to look that way.

To be fair, if you go in constantly arguing against AES, you’re going to get pushed out. The poster I linked was willing to be proven wrong.
I wasn’t going in arguing against AES. I was trying to start a conversation so that I could learn.
Based on the comments, you argued as though your preconcieved notions were valid and used far-right think tanks as evidence, that’s not a good way to learn.
My main issue was the attitude that I got back from them. Their responses were not reasonable like yours. They were sarcastic and toxic from the get-go.
They give back what they recieve in my experience.
