    strums guitar jill stein thinks autism is a “calamity” comparable with cancer, is ambiguously anti-vax, and called brexit a “victory” for the uk, and the green party platform is anti-sex worker and says that homeopathy is a solid alternative to medical care, so stop acting like stein is an ideologically pure alternative to the mainstream presidential candidates plays a few more chords, scurries offstage

H/T

She's since said that she's not anti-vax, but the rest applies. Plus the Green Party has been extremely reluctant to actually do the work of building a movement by getting involved in local or state politics: they pretty much show up every four years expecting votes just because they aren't Dems or Republicans.

So I'm not a fan.
