(not a Labor member, much further left) Sorry, but at least Labor has some semblance of party democracy. Hearing about the Greens from past members, it’s a bloody top-down dictatorship where membership don’t get to vote on policy at all (well, they can “recommend” but that’s about it)

I’d strongly argue that the reason many Labor Left members aren’t members of the Greens is because the Greens are a feel good org that doesn’t actually listen to the membership.

Disappointingly, many Labor Left members seem open to the idea that capitalism is actively hostile to our well-being, but continue to support the party, even if it’s pro-capitalism, and pro-neoliberalism (it is these days, anyway).

I’ll still preference the Greens over Labor for jow, but they are not a serious alternative.

Any party that isn’t internally democratic is not a serious alternative.
