YOU are speaking!
Have you made any poignant commentary on the recent election in the U.S.? Do you have a good response to liberals who are upset with the results or process of the election? Have you written or seen something as a comment reply/post that you think has standalone value? Did you see a new take or analysis you hadn’t previously considered?
Whether it’s a long idea with lots of context, or a short and sweet one liner, we want those thoughts aggregated here. This post is intended to be a resource for comrades to draw from when having actual discussions outside of Hexbear both online or IRL regarding the election.
Consider this a mini-effortpost aggregator. This is not for shitposts, but humor is completely acceptable if it helps make the point.
Not to do apologia for misogynists/liberals, but I do think theres a certain strain of man and woman throughout America that is more than willing to have women at the table but not at the head of it, especially when there's a person like Trump who encapsulates a lot of what is perceived as masculine to our culture.
While theoretically possible, I think it's a stretch to say that that represents a significant portion of the electorate that isn't already voting Republican. The only real evidence for that idea is that Clinton and Harris lost, and there are plenty of other explanations for their losses. If you make the claim that specific to where downballot races don't apply, then there just isn't enough data to make that a reliable conclusion. It also feels to me like it's just a talking point to absolve the Democrats of responsibility for running bad campaigns.
Btw with Nevada being called for Jacky Rosen, that makes three female senators winning in states Kamala lost, and there's Ruben Gallego, a Latino, who's ahead in Arizona.
