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!

    i-voted PSL wasn't on the ballot so I went Green. Ignored all the other races because it was Dems vs Gop with various losers filling in. Voted on the ballot initiatives because there was some bail reform and schools stuff.

      Downballot Dems told me not to vote for them by either explicitly supporting genocide or being silent on genocide.

      Same. I ALMOST voted for the Republican opponent of the asshole Democrat who personally called the pigs in and got a bunch of us arrested (also the Republican didn't even sound that bad except for one or two little standard—pretty "bipartisan"—dogwhistles), but I refrained and just abstained instead.
