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!

      Maddow always has such a fucking weird, "I'm saying the most serious thing in the world right now, and you'd better be paying attention," manner. The way she always decrescendos and then leaves a brief pause at the end of every sentence. Very annoying. You aren't as serious as you think you are, lib.

        if you say anything with the right cadence, at least some libs will believe it's the most profound thing ever stated. Obama brainrot

        e.g. something totally meaningless like "in the United States of America, we not only honour our values... we value our honour. that's. what. it's. all. about."

        listening to Harris' conceding speech, and really 95% of speeches by Democrats in general, it was full of that kind of idealistic pseudo-profound nonsense that makes you feel vaguely inspired for a second before you remember that it's literally meaningless drivel and that these are the same people who send billions to Israel every year to mass murder Palestinians
