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!

I feel so angry and astounded at the sheer level of incompetence that was demonstrated last night. None of these people will lose their jobs.

A majority of them will not only keep their jobs but will work on the Democrat 2028 campaign, if this election is anything to go by. this makes total sense and is very smart if and only if you regard your job as maximizing money extracted from donations, with getting voters as an unimportant afterthought, and this is indeed the current state of the Democratic Party

The only ads I saw on YouTube were them asking for money. Not ONCE did they ever ask for my vote.

You should shoot for Jamie Harrison's job.
