Movement for a People's Party imploding, and gloated over by Green flunkie Dave Schwab turd-polishing

The Virginia leadership of Movement for a People's Party all resigned Sunday, per this tweet (start of a thread) by Lisa Pfeffer, which I saw as a Walker Bragman retweet.

Reason? Nick Brana failing to exercise due diligence over antivaxxers coming into their Slack feed and trolling them. Antivaxxers who support the racists of the Canadian Freedumb Convoy. Per her thread, other states have joined?

The Green flunkie? Dave Schwab, who, among other things, claimed Greens would never invite a flood of antivaxxers.

Well, it has a flood of antivaxxers ALREADY THERE, Dave, so technically, you're right in that no invite is needed. Jill Stein, 2012/2016 prez candidate, played footsie with antivaxxerism in 2016, and played footsie then and since with other conspiracy theories like 5G cellphones. In the rank and file? I've seen a shitstorm of self-alleged Greens (if they've not officially withdrawn from the party over the Georgia GP kerfuffle) also support the Freedumb Convoy, and espouse antivaxxerism and the Gates (AND Soros antisemitic) conspiracy theories around it.

I've got the Twitter receipts from GP Tex-ass gubernatorial candidate Delilah Barrios attacking GP national's vax mandate stance of two months ago.

Having seen other dissident Greens spew scads of misinformation over this issue, I suspect she does, too. The link she posts is full of other nuttery, with claims that the likes of COINTELPRO infiltrated the GP's Steering Committee. I did check again yesterday on her Twitter to see if she's supporting the so-called Canadian truckers strike. As of now, she's not, but she's not a prolific Tweeter, so who knows? 

There's also Greens among those talking Nuremberg Code nonsense, addressed by me here.

Schwab IS a Green "flunkie." People like him, as well as the nutters, are why I'm an ex-Green. He responded to my "invited" call-out and I said he was technically right in that most of them were already here.

In another Tweet, Schwab said MPP backers should move to the GP since it's solidly left. 

Really, Dave? Are you ignorant of, or just ignoring, all the 2020 Jesse Ventura backers? Or are you dumb enough to consider Jesse a leftist, like you did Glenn Greenwald? (To be fair, Dave ain't the only Green that dumb. I think until relatively recently, David Bruce Collins thought Glennwald was a lefty.)

Meanwhile, whether "invited" or "already here," Schwab used my comments about Greenwald and more importantly Stein, to dodge the original issue of antivaxxers in the Green Party. My third-last Tweet to him was telling him that "my party right or wrong" is no better than "my country right or wrong." He then said he was always right, accused me of ad hominems as well as subject changes and went PR-smug. So, in two tweets back, I said HE'd essentially changed the subject by never answering the main question and that I was reserving the special Twitter treatment of first muting then blocking. 

What a fucking flunkie. What a fucking paid and official flunkie. He's like a higher-Peter Principle Charlie Keener, who 12 months ago didn't want to admit that Greens believed Jan. 6 was a false flag. Even though a number do. Schwab and other state and national party leaders probably should address that issue, too.
