Maybe Brace Belden was right when he said Green parties are always the most annoying.

I don't hate Jill Stein though.

That party never had any theoretical framework to make sense of anything, it's just moralizing. Add to this that they're mostly academics, many more-or-less successful or at least secure (highest average income of all the parties actually), the sort of people that read bourgeoise newspapers. This makes it easy to just point their holier-than-thou asses at the stupid and savage poors, the unenlightened sexist Muslims and the authoritarian foreign enemies.

I mean that happens to reformers in general but having no working class base and no theory lets you speedrun this.

Are you speaking of the German Greens, or American?

The US Greens are actually pretty consistent in their anti-US Imperialism for the past few election cycles.
