They appear to be a right-wing troll. I think you can safely ignore them.

I disagree. While they are not socialists like Corbyn’s labour was, they do seem to focus on working class.

I will predict the future for you if they win: will stay partners with israel, will stay agressive against russia, will stay cruel to the poor.

Oh yeah, we definitely want to be buddies with Russia. Fuck off with that. Won’t address that any further.
Moving past that: lots of things you could say about the Greens, but they’ve been vocal about their ideals and are seemingly committed. That includes being pro-Palestine and trying to help the working class and other minorities. Now that might change in the realities of governance, but writing them off as equivalent to Labour is pessimistic to an unwarranted degree.

So international relations now have two status: “provoking for war” or “buddies”. You have to tell that to diplomats all around the world, they been doing their job wrong from the start.
The people who own labour also own greens. Greens are just a backup plan, they will talk more the way people like to hear and all, but they will do the same things in the end. This is not pessimism, thats just how things are
