You can be anti war and anti American hegemony without being pro Russian.
But Stein is explicitly pro-Russia. She has repeated Russian talking points about Ukraine, and only seems to want to handicap Kamala Harris, knowing damn well that she's aiding Trump.
"So, what we said about Putin was that his invasion of Ukraine is criminal. It's a criminal and murderous war," Stein said in response.
Explicitly not pro-Russian
Except the context of that statement paints a vastly different picture.
She was extremely hesitant to label Putin a War Criminal, and had to be walked into the statement.
Also, Jill Stein knows who butters her bread.
"So, what we said about Putin was that his invasion of Ukraine is criminal. It's a criminal and murderous war,"
Again Stein isn't Pro-Russia here.
