America you have shocked the world.

But seriously, it's barely a win for Biden which is the best harm reduction result with the best rebuking of him and chairman Daou is planning a revolution. Biden is ahead enough to get 270 if the remain vote isn't for Trump he'll increase his margin by small amounts. Now go read some theory.

If election day's got you in an emergency, you can find hotlines here


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.

    Thank you the last thread was literally killing the site

    also this went up as the pinned mod post in the /r/neoliberal discussion thread like an hour ago:

    Beyond agreeing with the below completely and utterly, I'd just like to let y'all know that, as a Hispanic user myself, I was very disappointed in the behavior of some members of this forum yesterday.

    We have to talk about this. I'm gonna keep this short. Last night a lot of you had some heated gamer moments in the thunderdome. This isn't much of an exaggeration. Calling for kids to be locked in cages based on their ethnicity, for example. I expected better. If I see any of that shit again, you're getting a 7 day ban if I'm in an extremely good mood.

    Have a good day.

    EDIT: To clarify, since a few people have brought it up: This was not exclusively people outside the sub. The mod team recognized a few of the people who made comments like this as regulars. I wouldn't be stickying this to the top of the DT if it was only people from outside the sub.

    lmfao

        Honestly this was the best possible outcome because Trump ate shit, the establishment and the media got completely embarrassed AGAIN, and despite Biden's victory the neoliberals can take no smug glee in it

      This is what happens when your “woke” politics is represented by people with Milton Friedman flairs.

        With over a thousand comments it literally couldn't load and was slowing down the whole site

        Like I tried to post that quote an hour ago but my post would not go through. I took a break to eat dinner, still nothing when I got back.

        Pretty sure the site is still tanking though

        The site doesn't do a good job of folding comments, so the servers work really hard when a lot of people are loading a big thread and everything gets laggy.
