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!

    it'll be interesting to see how the next decade develops. i predict an increasing rift between the political class and basic awareness of reality as they rely ever more heavily on metrics that demonstrate concretely how good the economy is under their own management, not even realizing that their own thumbs are on the scales. woe unto us all when some company starts offering to use "ai" to fill in sparse econometrics.
