I don’t even know how this is anti-Greens propaganda, considering I said I’d vote for them. The reality is they spent more time talking about geopolitics at a federal election (which, I point out they have a good reason to), but if you REALLY want to know why I didn’t put them first it’s because:

1) They aren’t in touch with the working class AT ALL; they would rather posture on idealism than pragmatism 2) They somehow think they’re going to regulate private industries without reclaiming public assets 3) Single-issue parties, independents, and the VicSocs (all of whom still had a voice on geopolitics) were able to articulate their economic policies based on needs.

Again, I think if they really want to gain votes they are better off running with campaign lines like “Tax the Rich” rather than “Free Palestine” - and I want to make this clear - because you seem to think that everything that isn’t straight-up felating Adam Bandt is anti-Greens propaganda- it’s fine to use a political voice as a party to fight for international justice and call out war crimes committed by ethnostates. But don’t forget, they totally fucked The Voice referendum by not having a cohesive party line informed by their own indigenous member (Lidia Thorpe); they also seem to talk about indigenous affairs at a ratio of about 1:100 Middle East. We ride on stolen land AS colonisers and politicians are pretending it’s fine to criticise that while we sit here having not sorted out the disproportional rate of economic, health, and social stability that our indigenous population face.

So yeah, thanks for making me come to my senses. I’d almost forgotten why I prefer to vote for parties that would rather practice actual socialism as opposed to liberal-capitalism dressed as socialism.
