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!
r/politics speedrunning all stages of grief
Its not wrong, she was never a "good" candidate. The only reason she is a candidate at all is because fucking Biden's team tried to strong arm the run without a primary and despite his massive unpopularity leading to this clown last minute decision.
If Biden stays this would be the biggest blowout in history. Its not wrong, how do you compete while carrying the flag of one of the most unpopular presidents in history? You don't, you shouldn't have, if she doesn't distance herself from Biden she is a shit candidate.
Though I guess r/politics isn't willing to go that far. I guess she is bad because misogyny or something. Its 2016, Clinton was bad because of misogyny and not because she is also a ghoul.
Trump is also a ridiculous bad candidate too, he got shot and barely helped him.
People are still insisting that Biden isn't suffering from dementia and it's ableist and ageist to say he is and it's just like wut?
The total lack of meaningful party structure is very evident in all this. A real party probably wouldn't have let Joe run in '20 and they definitely would have forced him out in '22.
