(20,709 posts)First of all, I disagree that posts like mine are going to turn Green voters away from the Democratic Party. They might turn Jill Stein devotees away from me personally, but that's a different thing entirely.
On the contrary, the problem with Green voters is that they don't understand the truth. What I am saying in the OP about Jill Stein is factual. If Green voters actually cared about what happens to the environment, they wouldn't support the Green Party, because the Green party actively works to destroy the environment. And so, I would argue, if indeed Green voters are looking at DU in order to make their future voting decisions, speaking the truth about the Green Party is a good thing.
Also, my point about Republican voters stands. Republican voters are, in fact, potential Democratic voters. There are people who sometimes vote GOP and other times vote Dem. By your logic, we should restrain from criticizing the GOP too harshly because that might hurt their feelings. Sorry, I'm not playing that game.
