Blaming Stein voters does nothing to solve any of the underlying issues with our system. She's a useful idiot for the Republicans and a useful scapegoat for the Democrats. Blindly and simply blaming her and her voters is allowing the status quo as much as voting for her, it's a short sighted problematic worldview that is a distraction from calling those currently in power to do anything to change the status quo of our system.

Agreed. Be mad at the people preventing it.

How is this not "fuck the police" it's a camera, controlled by the police, to surveil people.

The people who don't vote will far out number those who vote for Jill Stein. Why do we let them off the hook when they would have a larger impact on the election.

Don't get me wrong, Jill Stein sucks, but don't blame her voters. Blame those who don't vote to blame those who blindly vote for trump because of "the taxes"

I am tired of blaming someone who gets 2% for when bad things happen. Blame the 30% who did nothing.

I realize a portion of those who don't vote are due to voter suppression, bring the fire you bring for stein voters to those suppressing votes, it will be a more effective strategy. Stein and her voters are an easy scapegoat.

Totally a bug to show ads, and not an attempt to see what they can get away with and then lie when there is a negative reaction.

Just because cars are a problem doesn't mean we should turn them into a tool of the police state.

The solution to speeding isn't to tell people they are speeding, it's to make people feel uncomfortable speeding via good urban design.

Absolutely not. When the board is looking into it, it's because they are not returning shareholder value and they are pissed about it. This will likely end with the C-suite being butchered.

We need to win by a lot more than razor thin margins, republicans are going to try and steal this one.

I've never understood why classic is "smart people music".

I like a lot of classic music, but I don't think it should be considered any more cultured or intellectual than any other music.
