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 @[email protected]:

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!

They’re addicted to “working class” as a synonym for “white”

Final report from MSNBC: Rachel Maddow, Joy Reid, Chris Hayes nowhere to be seen after Trump's victory speech. Both were last seen on air when PA was called for Trump. Seemed like they have taken the spiciest commentators off-air. Jen Psaki has taken the moderator role, and as much as I hate her, the girl is doing a commendable job, she's been live for >8 hours holding it together. Bunch of jabronis whom I don't know replaced Rachel, Joy, Chris Hayes, etc. on the panel. They are still whining. Poor Kornacki is still on, and Kornacki cam is still live. Let the guy sleep. It is not worth watching anymore.

Reddit watching the election needle rn

Liberal family said people need time to mourn. I said fuck that shit, if you couldn't expect the outcome then you're not informed enough. They said it's good to have optimism. I said it's delusion. Maybe I'm being too harsh but their reactions feel so performative

It's truly baffling that people could look historically at US elections and unequivocally say "When people are concerned about the economy, the incumbent party doesn't do well...........................................but this election it'll be different!" top-cop

The fact that the campaign didn't distance themselves from Biden will truly be studied for generations (who am I kidding, it probably won't)

The betting odds aggregators currently have Trump at 56% chance to win, Harris at 43%.

Trump is probably gonna take the win, and liberals everywhere will go on overdrive scapegoating russia, the green party, and muslim americans.

We'll see A LOT of meltdown posts, then after a month or so, liberals will start to point fingers at themselves and start shitfights with each other, and also act like they supported Palestine all along. Nothing breeds dissent like defeat.

Bernie Sanders wins fourth term in Vermont, defeating Republican Gerald Malloy

Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., won reelection Tuesday, defeating Republican Gerald Malloy and securing his fourth term in the U.S. Senate. At 83, Sanders will continue his decades-long career in Washington with another six-year term.

Known as a leading progressive, Sanders has championed policies like Medicare for All and a higher federal minimum wage. First elected to the U.S. House in 1991, Sanders moved to the Senate in 2007 and ran for president in 2016 and 2020.

Though he is an Independent, Sanders is expected to continue caucusing with the Democratic Party.

I never watch Hasan but have it on while working rn, he’s having a big cry about the epistemological crisis in America, which is totally missing the point. The far right aren’t to be convinced or won over, they’re to be defeated and made politically a spent force.

Trump will have essentially had three terms. Brandon spent four years doing nothing for the left. His only accomplishments were one justice appointment and some bullshit bills full of pork projects.

Democrats managed to lose an unlosable election even worse than they did in 2016. I almost feel bad for the liberals who wasted their vote on such a horribly mismananaged political party that has proven it's just as bad at campaigning as it is at opposing republicans

Hasan say “the system exists to perpetuate capitalism, voting is a lie” challenge. People on this website told me he was a socialist pipeline. Seems like a real good time to radicalise people

is it possible to have a not quite meme electoral system that selects for the guy with the least amount of downvotes?

Are we going to have an electionball watch party on cytube or somewhere? At what time do results start coming in?

Can't wait to get wasted and enjoy the inevitable decline of the great satan.
