I know I shouldn't get excited for Biden but goddamn it feels good to finally see these overconfident losers cope. I treat this like a team sport at this point.
If it makes you feel any better the libs are also having a meltdown over the down ballot massacre. So we get both brands of cope simultaneously.
Everybody's coping for the weekend / Everybody wants a little romance
Let it feel good now bc this is also the worst possible outcome for the left in the longer term. Bidens definitely going to cut social security and Medicare.
That is bad for working class people, for sure, but I fail to see how this is an impediment to socialist agitation and organising. The loss of sucdem bandaids in the midst of a pandemic may very well be the thing that punches through years of capitalist indoctrination.
Yeah but people who don't really pay attention to politics except for right before various elections will now only have Republicans to blame rather than being able to explicitly agitate against the Dems as an singular party.
If im honest I don't see your excuses as that much different from Dems always blaming Reps for their failures. The bourgeoisie is not gonna agitate against itself, its gonna have to be us who do it.
It's more that republican media is constantly agitating against their own party, whereas DNC media does not.
The media will go full Biden can do no wrong while blaming McConnell for every war he starts.
Yeah I was just on TheDonald.Win and it's insane levels of cope. Complete meltdown. It's coastal liberals 2016. There's like 100 posts on election fraud. There are just going to be pictures of random vans now for the next two months on every conservative internet forum.
They have an entire website named and dedicated to one slob that's going to have ended up serving one Presidential term. Cringe.
The interface here is actually better, though. Just dark mode and emojis alone make this place miles better than r*ddit.
Still tons of libs, though
Yeah, but you have to know about that option then go look how to turn it on. I'm trying to be lazy here.
idk what you're talking about, Citations Needed is very professional
one slob that’s going to have ended up serving one Presidential term
Tragic. Imagine being such a loser that you're only President of an industrial superpower for four fleeting years.
One silver lining of this dogshit election, no matter how it went: it was always bound to make a group of people I hate extremely mad and sad
It's actually made both sides really mad, for us this result is hilarious. Maybe this isn't the worst timeline, just the most ridiculous.
No it is the worst timeline.
But dialectical materialism let's us in on the joke that is the United States.
No we needed dems to take the Senate, or we needed Trump to win. This is the worst outcome even if it's also the funniest in the short term.
They're going to cut social security now instead of like raising the min wage and shit, or like giving us more time to organize for 2024.
Counterpoint: now we can blame both wings of the capitalist party for the inevitable material suffering that is to follow. What's coming is a systemic crisis in the neoliberal world order, and it's up to us to connect the dots for working class people and educate them.
It's going to be harder than it would be to do the same thing under one party rule.
Because low propensity voters and people not really engaged with politics will only hear the occasional line about how McConnell blocked Biden from doing "all these good things he truly wanted to do".
On the other hand, republican media will be railing against both McConnell and Biden, so conservative voters will vote in even more insane people.
Full party rule of dems gave more opportunity to agitate against them bc there was no one to blaim on failures but themselves.
Enter Republican Russiagate. Except Republicans will be in a position to actually punish Biden over it.
levels never seen before. truly terrifying. no one man should cope that hard
Young Republican nerds posting on 4chan are going to turn into 2017-era hysterical Russiagate libs for the next two to four years and I am having a great time watching it manifest in the aftermath of GA and PA flipping.
Levels of :cope: that were previously thought to be impossible are now on display.
They're now saying that Trump secretly watermarked all of the mail-in ballots with quantum bitcoins. I don't know what stage of denial that is.
Tbh I'm extremely unimpressed with Trump's strategy here. All he needed to do was come up with some almost semi-plausible legal argument to overturn the results in a few states and repeatedly hammer it until he created enough doubt that 5 supreme court judges felt they could go along with it. It probably wouldn't have worked, but it would have had a chance. Instead he's whining about all kinds of extraneous stuff like his observers not getting to stand where they wanted and the polls being wrong.
Donald’s biggest disappointment is the fact that he didn’t arrest Hilldawg
But I guess arresting the entire DNC is a bigger and better fish
Because they're secretly all fussy about the small hand jokes so they pretend to embrace it
