And you are crazy if you think the democrats or republicans would allow the green party to exist any longer if there was proof they were actually a Russian party, right?

The US famously only ever made one political party illegal, and it's not enforced now because it's unconstitutional to do so. The best they can do is what they are doing. Highlighting the evidence.

Not trying to sound argumentative, but I have only seen anyone post the picture with Putin at the table with the Green party nominee. Would you be able to reply with any other evidence you have seen?

She's always run on an anti-war platform. She's saying both sides are wrong for it. Theres a pretty clear statement she put out calling Putin a war criminal. The point she's trying to make is that America is hypocritical at best to even point the finger, which in a lot of cases is true.

Americans don't want to talk about the bad things their country might do internationally though, so everyone calls her a Russian shill. Much more likely that, then there is any truth in what she is saying.

At least she wants to talk about our shortcomings honestly and try to solve them. The democrats won't even be honest with the public to begin with in most cases.

That's not what honesty looks like. She's literally lying in all 3 twitter links.

Okay I'm not gonna prove that for you, go on?

Do you think being critical of the US makes you Russian by default?

I think its brave of her to take unpopular opinions like this, as an american.

Lmao TIL lying is just an unpopular opinion. No. Just no.
