Green Party candidate Jill Stein is gaining ground among Muslim-American voters in three critical swing states: Michigan, Arizona, and Wisconsin, according to a recent poll by the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR).

Stein leads Vice President and Democrat candidate Kamala Harris in these states, with 40 per cent support in Michigan, 35 per cent in Arizona, and 44 per cent in Wisconsin. This surge in popularity appears tied to Stein’s vocal criticism of US support for Israel during the ongoing genocide in Gaza.

    Explicitly YES

    A vote fire Stein is a vote for Trump. A vote for stein is a vote for fascism.

    Yes. I explicitly shame this behavior.

    Shame.

    Dig?

        Yeah, pay attention.

        It’s a two party system as much as that sucks.

        Stein has no shot. None. You’re a fool if you think she can win anything anywhere.

        Candidate A from team blue sucks ass.

        Candidate B from team red is a million times worse

        If you’re abstaining to make a point or voting for stein because Kamala sucks, you’re enabling the greater of two evils by not actively voting against it.

        You want a third party? We have to start at the bottom and when we get a shot at a national presence Jill fucken stein ain’t gonna be there

          FFS I wish more people would get this. I understand that Kamala’s policy isn’t helping her but I don’t think they’ve done the math that a trump presidency would enable Israel 10 fold, he has made his stance very clear when it comes to Muslims and Israel.

          If you aid and abet a genocide you deserve evil to befall you

          I pray there is a hell for you, bleak and unending.

      The Muslim-Americans that refuse to vote for a genocidal regime specifically targetting Muslims is somehow fascist, and supporting Trump?

        Unfortunately, yes.

        Our system blows. But as it stands, yes, that is correct.

        The two party system should change, but until it does, you either vote for the lesser of two evils or you step back enable the greater of two evils.

        If you vote for stein you’re worse than most magas because deep down, you know better.

          Gotcha, so you’re the liberal that would rather close their eyes and cover their ears than actually try to regain those votes by pushing Kamala to sanction Israel.

            I’m no fucken liberal

            We should have cut Israel loose 30 years ago

            Kamala is as center right as she’s ever been, she’s a fucken cop ffs

            You think I wouldn’t rather be voting for somebody even a little left of center, let alone an actual leftist?

            That’s not the world as it stands, no matter how much you whinge about making Kamala be mean to isreal

            I could piss away my vote because Kamala sucks but what does that get anyone? You want change, dig in. We need to win local first

            You think it’s bad for Muslims now? What do you think it looks like if the fucken yahoos running around saying Haitians eat cats win again because a bunch of morons protest voted for stein.

            And seriously, Jill fucken stein of all people

              Voteblues are liberals, sorry

              We should have cut Israel loose 30 years ago

              Assuming it had to be founded, it should have been destroyed 70-something years ago

                Ok dude, if you define a liberal as someone that is voting for a dem instead of bending over for the immediate threat of literal fascism… you got me

                As far as Israel’s founding, yeah fine I’m not that old afaic the world fucked up by letting Israel happen but once they’re all there what now?

                I mean, I think religion is stupid but they’re still people, none of them should be subject to genocide and neither side is ever going to stop fighting because religion.

                So my question is how does voting for Jill stein make any of that better?

                What do you think a relationship between Trump 2.0 and Netanyahu looks like? You care about Palestinians and you want to risk a second Trump term?

                Come on dude

                  If this is your analysis of why the Israeli State is commiting genocide via settler-colonialism and why Palestinians are fighting against it, legitimately believing religion to be the driving factor, you were never doing any kind of Materialist analysis and thus at minimum reject the core of Marxism.
