Welcome to c/electoralism! politics isn't just about voting or running for office, but this community is.

Please read the Chapo Code of Conduct and remember...we're all comrades here.

Shitposting in other comms please!

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!

Wait how can they already know Trump won? Didn't it take weeks to count the votes last time?

Wonder what's going to happen with all the celebrities that endorsed Harris. Basically everyone of note in the music and film industry endorsed her lol, usually with the most hypocritical and Eurocentric logic around the issues of womens rights, LGBT rights, and the rights of racial minorities in the USA. Will their stans have anything to say about this blatant nonsense and disregard for the lives of those who are not American? Somehow Chappell Roan, who seems to have negative PR skills, came out looking the best on this.

All in all I think all the celebrity endorsements had a net negative effect on the Harris campaign, it gave the impression that she was being endorsed by the "liberal elites". That's possibly the last label you'd want for yourself when running against Trump.

Left my Senate and House of Reps votes blank because my state wouldn't let me write in anything. Democracy is when there are only two choices.

I feel like I am losing my mind just sitting in this Boiler Room waiting for polls to close so at least we get a change of scenery. Campaigns are a special form of torture sometimes... and yet people keep working them.

Imagine acting smug for 8 years straight only to get owned by a Squirrel.

I love hearing liberal boomer expats in my country grumbling that every poc man is to blame and that only women can be relied on. That poc men like getting abused and other weird shit.

Kamala bragged about deporting more immigrants than Trump. You think that won them over? You think having Bill and Obama brow-beating them helped either? Fucking idiots.

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.

melon-musk is posting neo-fash vapor-wave Hyperborean supercuts or some shit. Libs are very impressed because I guess it never really sunk in for them that Apartheid Clyde is exactly what he looks like.

[–] QuillcrestFalconer@hexbear.net 23 points 9 months ago

Hot take: the accelarationist will win. The accelarationist candidate is kamala. Things will keep getting worse, the Democrats won't get anything done, and this will take fascism into overdrive in the US.

Anyway if trump does end up winning it will be extremely funny.

It seems I'm going to be wrong and tomorrow I'm going to be dying of laughter
