    Because doing worse doesn’t mean they’re not still an imminent threat to our democracy.

          There are 10x more non-voters than Green voters in any given election. If you abolish the Green Party, all you’re doing is feeding those Green voters into the non-voting demographic.

          Why would any Green vote for a party that believes their organization does not have a right to exist?

            What’s your proof of this claim?

            I guess maybe you’re not being intentionally obtuse.

            The comment was about why democrats worry about losing to the Republicans due the green party taking votes because the Republican party is weakening.

            I was saying that the republican party weakening doesn’t mean they aren’t still a threat.

              Ah, my mistake. I thought they were saying the Green party is weakening. Greens have been steadily losing vote share since Nader’s defeat in 2000.

                Idk why you were downvoted for admitting you were mistaken. The internet is weird.
