put all of your election posting here so it doesn't bother anyone else!

from @CoolerOpposide@hexbear.net:

For Agitprop purposes, I’m asking comrades to help aggregate any and all effortpost responses, critiques, or general thoughts that you have seen or written pertaining to yesterday’s U.S. election that you think have standalone value for discussion either online or IRL.

I made a post for that purpose here, and ideally it can be used not only for general discussion, but as a reference for well thought out responses in discussions about the election to save all of us some brainpower.

No shitposts please, as we’d like to highlight some comrades’ actual effort in constructing responses or analysis, but humor is 100% welcome to help make your point!

      The internet will destroy you psychologically. It is slowly destroying everyone's psyche in different ways depending on which dogshit social media app they use. They slowly converge into the similar kinds of weird online behaviors and this in particular is some kind of mod that thinks way too highly of their community.

      That is an incredibly doomer post for what is essentially a coin flip.

      If Harris loses, it's not because we were being complacent.

      Well, at least they admit their propaganda influences the election, rather than simply being neutral fans of those allegedly just trying to predict it. Way to go, libs!

        Weird since that is actually the main lib talking point (“We have to vote for Kamala or this will be the last election, end of democracy”)

      Have the sacrificed enough pigeons and fatted calves to appease the electoralism gods?
