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!

It never ceases to amaze me just how unbelievably incoherent the political opinions are of like 95% of this country. It really is on full display right now. Social media is unbearable. Left leaning people from all walks of my life who I thought would at the very least have to see past a little bit of Kamala and the Dem’s bullshit, just a liiiittle bit, are like no “the choice was between a queen and a monster and y’all chose monster” etc. Almost every person in my life has no genuine understanding of what it is they are experiencing or talking about. No curiosity to try to unpack anything. Critique and evaluate the information they are presented with. And honestly worst of all is that everyone is still, STILL, AFTER YEARS OF THIS CONSTANT CONFLICTING SHIT, at their deepest level, above all patriotic to this country. It’s lazy, pathetic, immoral, and deeply embarrassing. 95% of 330 million people, just outright propagandized zombie narcissists who have no fucking clue what they’re saying

I don't think anything, shall we say, "exciting" will happen, regardless of the result. 2020 was far more tense. Everyone seems so exhausted this time around.

I legit have people in my life who are taking this shit so seriously (and giving themselves anxiety in the process), and I’m honestly not sure how to respond. They genuinely believe that Kamala is a much lesser evil and will protect them more, and I don’t know how to tell them that’s absolutely delusional.

An important part of your leftist journey is deciding which obscure definitely not marginalized regional group you're going to be really really unreasonably racist about.

A bunch of "leftist" streamers are fearmongering about Trump at the last second. I think this is maybe the first time I've removed a post by Good Politics Guy from /r/BreadTube, because he's suddenly discovered that Trump is a Epstein-adjacent child molester and is fine with murdering journalists, and GPG is now screaming about Trump "ending our democracy". Asleep at the wheel until two days before the election? WTF?!

The Palestinian will achieve liberation through weapons and violence against the settler colonial state of "israel" and their allies the United States, whatever happens with the elections.

“The outcome of this election is not what we wanted, it's not what we fought for, it's not what we voted for, but listen to me when I say: the light of America's promise will always burn bright,” Kamala Harris told supporters at Howard University on Wednesday.

“We must accept the results of this election,” Harris told the crowd. “Earlier today, I spoke with President Trump and congratulated him on his victory. I said that I would help him and his team in this transition, and that we will engage in a peaceful transfer of power,” She added.

Once again, liberals are trying to blame George Bush on third party voters, ignoring the fact that the Supreme Court stole the election (and they let them get away with it).

I'm split on who wins. For a long time I leaned Trump, but these recent days... I think the dems might actually pull off the mythological "moderate" republican. Trump is weird, JD Vance is weird, Elon is incredibly weird, they're all cringy and Kamala is worse than most republicans, so maybe she gets them. On the other hand she loses a large amount of voters the dems take for granted, on account of her being a republican now.
I dunno.

some pulls from reddit-logo/neoliberal

I guess at the end of the day it’s all just purchasing power. Cuz even though the economy is killing some metrics, people can’t spend like it’s 2018 and so it’s “bad”

At least we won't have to deal with NATO anymore 🤷

Dems held on to anti-racism too long after the last election. They weren’t going to win voters by letting the far-left call every white person a racist, even people who were sympathetic to the cause. Best to just unify people and not listen to the far-left

The thing that bothers me is the Republicans aren’t going to meaningfully change anything.

Kamala ran a picture perfect campaign besides maybe foreign policy, anti-incumbency is a hell of a drug I guess.

Tonight might literally be the death of the neoliberal world order.

Bright spot for this sub, Hillary is no longer the worst performing candidate vs. trump

tell me about the rabbits, George...
