is it a sign that you're a member of the compatible left if the oligarchy is funding your movement?

yet another example of why we need ranked choice voting or some kind of preferential voting system where it's not possible to "split the vote"
Tankie splitter.
West stated that he believed the Russian invasion of Ukraine was "a criminal invasion, provoked by the expansion of NATO, which is an instrument of U.S. global power" and described the war as a "proxy war between the American Empire and the Russian Federation".[97][98]
West's campaign received extensive support from Republican and Trump allies to stay on the ballot in swing states in hope that he would take votes from Kamala Harris.[126][127][128] West expressed ambivalence about the support from Republicans.[126]
So, Green MAGA. That was literally Jill Stein's strategy.
Jill Stein's strategy was to stroke her ego and raise money to waste.
The Green Party may be a serious enterprise in other countries, but in the United States it mostly just serves as a punchline.
I could see if we were to put ranked choice in everywhere, then start trying to mount things like the Green Party.
But instead we have a goofy candidate show up on the presidential ballot every 4 years, some with strange foreign ties and Republicans funding them. Almost zero candidates at the local level.
And we can thank them for things like W and donnie.
How much funding funneled from the Russians via conservative shadowy groups, too, I wonder?
Decades of sterling reputation thrown in the garbage bin… Cornell, why? Ego? Blackmail?
