This should have been obvious because they are different words, but since we have people complaining that anything related to the US election should go in c/electoralism, it has become necessary to point this out.

Shitposting about Biden being a doo doo head is not electoralism. Electoralism in our context is attempting to bring about change using the existing institutions of a bourgeois democracy. The reason there's a sub for this is because not everyone thinks this is an effective tactic, not to protect the delicate sensibilities of everyone who doesn't want to hear about an election.

    Moreover, the solution is not to use c/electoralism as a containment sub for content you find stupid.
