YOU are speaking!

Have you made any poignant commentary on the recent election in the U.S.? Do you have a good response to liberals who are upset with the results or process of the election? Have you written or seen something as a comment reply/post that you think has standalone value? Did you see a new take or analysis you hadn’t previously considered?

Whether it’s a long idea with lots of context, or a short and sweet one liner, we want those thoughts aggregated here. This post is intended to be a resource for comrades to draw from when having actual discussions outside of Hexbear both online or IRL regarding the election.

Consider this a mini-effortpost aggregator. This is not for shitposts, but humor is completely acceptable if it helps make the point.

    Is there a way to force liberals to reckon with all the stuff they just stopped caring about the day Biden became president? Like the camps of migrants? A lot of them went full border wall with Biden. Now they're probably going to start caring again.

      I don't think this would be a fruitful line of discussion. They don't perceive themselves that way, so it just kind of bounces off and makes you unlikable (cause you're calling them a shitty person to some extent, regardless of whether you're correct or not).

      Focus on common ground, and you'll be able to stand on that ground and clean up that sort of stuff later on.

        Agreed. I think they're really deeply stuck to the "We're the goodguys they're hte badguys" and their evaluation of policy is at least as much about who is enacting the poliy as what the policy is.
