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!

She actually floated that for a few days but then walked it back. Presumably due to donor pressure or a terrible political team.

IIRC she was pretty weak on it even when she was supposedly "attacking price gouging" as a trial campaign strategy. They always have to equivocate and add a bunch of complicated exceptions and caveats and shit. Like her now-infamous "economic stimulus" for Pell-Grant-recipient "small-business" entrepreneurs in minority neighborhoods (for over 3 years).
