Nice gotcha, but she’s not going to win, so she’s not practically a choice. “Vote for the lesser evil” is a good shorthand, but it’s still shorthand; the philosophy is to vote in a way that will cause the least harm. If your candidate has no chance of winning, then you aren’t doing that, since your vote is roughly equivalent to not voting. Voting for a third party only makes sense if you weren’t going to vote at all, and in that case it’s a better choice but still not the best one. Hope that helps clear up any confusion around the lesser evil sentiment.
Look i know that you don’t like it but to have ties with Vladimir Putin is less evil than being a fascist or supporting a genocide. If she lose things will be a gazillion times worst. The choice is limited buddy if you want to change the system you have to vote for the lesser evil.
According to the “lesser evil” rhetoric Jill Stein is the lesser evil candidate and anyone who doesn’t vote for her is supporting fascists.

False. Jill Stein has ties to Vladimir Putin and a republican marketing firm.
