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!
the only bad part about (at least some of) the Democrats caring about Gaza again is that we all know that it's insincere. they didn't give a shit about hospitals full of people being hit by some of the biggest non-nuclear bombs humanity has yet conceived of under Biden, but now (at least some of them) are going to pretend they care now. and in 4 years if the Dems win then they will return to not giving a shit
I still think that liberals caring about real-world issues under Trump is a positive silver lining, but it comes with that distrust of them, because we've seen how their empathy and morality switches off simply because the president changes. how many will return to brunch when like, Klobuchar or Biden's head in a jar is elected president in 2028? I'm unsure how to radicalize these sorts of people permanently; then again, as Day indirectly says, perhaps the Democrat liberal base is barren ground from the start
