Vote.
You’re a fucking idiot if you think the green party holding bullshit positions in small cities in random places means anything. The PSL literally runs radical tenants unions that are capable of staging rent strikes. They’ve shown in the BLM protests that they’re able to lead people to break the law in protest. There is no current or former Green Party member who could rouse a crowd of thousands like Eugene Puryear did in Philly (no official count but it looked bigger than most Bernie rallies). They don’t have state power but they have people power. That’s something you need to understand if you want Socialism.
Literally the two Green Party candidates who are Chair and a Commisioner of the Rent Stabilization Board in Berkeley, CA have more power to effect the lives of renter’s than the like 50 tenants unions the PSL has organized in its history.
The PSL doesn’t have “people power”. If they had people power, I wouldn’t be looking at a map where they are only on the ballot in 13 states, when the primmary requirement for getting on the ballot is getting people to sign a petition. People didn’t show up the that rally in Philadelphia because Eugene Puryear and the PSL were involved, they showed up because it was a BLM rally in a diverse, left-leaning city in the middle of one of the largest protest movements against racism in this country’s history. Don’t confuse doing entryism with having power. No one was calling that rally the “PSL rally”.
While we are on the topic of Eugene Puryear, remind me, which party did he run under in DC, in between his two attempts to be PSL VP candidate?

Thanks for posting some evidence that the Greens are helpful to the working class.
