There is a little-known far-right political party registered in Scotland, with politics similar to Reform. It doesn’t really operate as a party. It seeks no publicity, delivers no leaflets, does no canvassing. It lies low and does zero campaigning, avoiding attention, hoping not to be noticed … until polling day.
Its plan is that on polling day, voters quickly scanning down the list of parties will put their cross against one that superficially looks like the Greens. (1/4)

This far-right party is called “Independent Green Voice”. Do not vote for them by mistake. (2/4)

@steviferous bruh if somebody votes for things "by mistake", you shouldn't want their vote.

Because you (being perfect) have never been fooled by anyone, ever, so fuck anyone who does get fooled?
No. That’s not how it works.
We don’t want their votes going to con artists.
Give your head a wobble.

@mysturji @steviferous and I don't want people falling for phishing emails (as per my profession). Bad news: the answer to both those things is the same: take your time with the task, be careful when you do it. But once a mistake happens, you can't take it back.

@odr_k4tana @steviferous
I refer you to my post about education.
Instead of dissing them, maybe try educating them? Politely?
That might help.

@mysturji @steviferous I answer politely when I'm asked politely. The OP is not about education, this was covered in my exchange with others in this thread. People who cannot read have all the aid they need at the polls.
