the Green Party doesn't do anything worthwhile until it's election season.
I think the green's run for what it has been is over with. They don't have a viable brand and are too paranoid of being co-opted (rightfully so IMO) to actually become one. We need a new party, and the time to start building it is now. I'll settle for a Howie Hawkins ticket just to try and get him to the debates but I'm down with the movement for a peoples party.
Better than stein
We just had 20+ options.Options are good - didn't say you have to vote for him
Options for the sake of having options has no intrinsic value.
I'm going to go with butt hurt Bernie voters this time around.
I'm sure plenty of Russian boys will be amplifying their message though 
I'm sure the whole attack-rolodex will be expended by November. We should make bets on the order they come outI'm going to go with butt hurt Bernie voters this time around.

I'm sure. They amplify any and all messages that contribute to Americans hating eachother

This election season is going to be retarded.
I doubt there will be very little discussion of actual policies.
I was joking back when the primaries started that this could look like "grumpier old men"
They’ve pretty openly worked constantly on issues of ecology and environmentalism/environmental racism for decades now. The turn to electoralism is a far more recent trend for the Greens.
I’d actually think the opposite - they’re the largest third party in the US - and all of the “movement for a people’s party“ has simply lead to the immediate liberal media Crucifixtion of DSA and the sloppy reintroduction of the Libertarians, whose ideologies exist from libertarian socialism to anarcho-capitalism and have never had a coherent message.

Imagine the full might of the US military behind the Taliban
They have been around for a lifetime at this point. And while I know what they're up against, they haven't made a ton of progress and unless they're able to court some serious celebrity they will continue dog paddling and offering up policies for democrats to co-opt and water down. I don't see them being able to attract a big enough crowd or coalition to do what needs to be done.
I think you can bypass some of that loser/joke stigma, do more towards earned media and scooping up people who like green policy but aren't excited about them as a movement with a new party operating as a container for the OWS/Sandernistas at the foundation.
Unfortunately...you need celebrity. Jesse Ventura would have been the most dynamic/viable green candidate that I can think off off the top of my head and even that's kind of short of what could be done if Bernie had decided to go third party. It just seems like a conventional party that will always be seen as the hippie section of the democratic party for them to peel off and steal from.
I think we gotta go a different route.
