If you support Stein make sure you don't look into her statements about Russia. It'll make it easier to continue supporting her.
“Russia’s invasion was a provoked response to the bigger, more murderous and illegal game plan of US empire - in which ‘overextending’ and defeating Russia is only one small part of the picture… In 2014 the US backed a coup in Ukraine led by far-right insurrectionists. The installation of the new government was a giant step towards the goal of adding Ukraine to NATO - and putting hostile bases and nuclear-capable missiles right on Russia's border.” – Jill Stein February 24, 2022
Should the U.S. provide military assistance to defend Ukraine from Russia? PUBLIC STATEMENTS "No, we should stay out of conflicts that do not directly threaten us"
this quote does not say what you say it says.
the only place i can find your quote is in a far right think tank called "third way" and the link they provide does not have the full quote they claim she gave. can you provide a source with the full quote?
30 seconds of searching found an entire speech where Stein blames the U.S. for Putin's unhinged invasion.
Stein is probably the worst candidate as far as Ukraine is concerned.
this, also, is not a source for that quote. your characterization that she supports russia is also not supported by what you just linked.
There is literally a YouTube video in that link of her views. Putin wants to keep what he's stolen. Stein wants peace with the current front lines as the border. Unless you agree with her in that I suppose.
demanding peace is not supporting russia. that video, also, does not support the quote that you bandied about earlier. can you source your claim?
