The 🇱🇷 2020 🇱🇷 American 🇱🇷 Presidential 🇱🇷 Elections 🇱🇷 are the single most important political event since The Last Fascist was VOTED 🔫 OUT 🔫. We on the admin team see it as our duty to enforce the views of our audience by any parasocial means necessary.
As a nacho-socialist cabal, we see no path to revolution other than by focusing the majority of our leisure time on consuming bougie media. Media that is obsessed with the details of an election we decided our preferences on months ago, if not years ago. Here's the bottom line: Voting makes you a good person and not voting makes you a bad one. Don't believe us? Just ask Lenin:
A democratic republic is the best possible political shell for capitalism, and, therefore, once capital has gained possession of this very best shell (through the Palchinskys, Chernovs, Tseretelis and Co.), it establishes its power so securely, so firmly, that no change of persons, institutions or parties in the bourgeois-democratic republic can shake it.
We must also note that Engels is most explicit in calling universal suffrage as well an instrument of bourgeois rule. Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down, never gonna run around and desert you. Universal suffrage, he says, obviously taking account of the long experience of German Social-Democracy, is "the gauge of the maturity of the working class. It cannot and never will be anything more in the present-day state."
See? We can't let capital take control of this "very best shell"! Turtles belong to the people! And the way we do that is by voting for posts.

Fresh hits from r/politics:
BLM and the defund the police crowd killed Biden’s chances. And then black people stayed home and didn’t support the one candidate that was supporting them. Enjoy another four years of racist Trump, Black America.
Florida passed the $15 minimum wage and voted Trump and California passed prop 22 and voted Biden. I wonder if this is significant somehow. Naaaah probably not.
Got banned from /r/politics for saying "I guess Bernie wasn't the only unelectable one"
when was you when chapo dot chat was dies
I was sat at home posting in mega thread when discord ring
“chapo is kill”
“no”
F in chat for all those grifters that completely tanked any leftist credibility they had by shilling for Biden only for him to do no different to Hilary.
The Lincoln Project raised $67 million. Republican Voters Against Trump raised $10 million.
93% of Republicans voted for Trump in 2020, up from 90% in 2016.

This election is going to be decided by the supreme court. If the dnc didn't cheat in 2016, President Sanders could've appointed 3 justices. The senate confirming 0 of those 3 justices could've fueled a huge blue wave. Oh well.
