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!

    On NPR this morning, there was a story on Latino voters. The guest opens the spot saying, "the top issue for Hispanics was actually the economy" and "most said that they were worse off financially compared to 4 years ago." The guest and host then spend 5 minutes talking about how the problem with Harris campaign's outreach to Latino voters was that they used the terms Latinx and progresista.

    Absolutely nothing will be learned by liberals.

      The economy was definitely the most important factor by far, but I'm guessing a large majority of Latino Trump voters do take issue with the Spanish language-defying term "Latinx".
