I genuinely don't know how the libs are surprised; they were the ones insisting to me that Biden was the only one who could defeat Trump?
electoralism
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!
No matter what they tell pollsters, there is so much racism and misogyny in America that I'm going with Trump. Especially in places like Pennsylvania and Michigan.
Biden only beat him cause he was just another flavor of white guy.
Let chaos reign. Let the seat of the dark god of capital lose its mandate and plunge into political upheaval.
Anyway, share your favorite chaotic scenarios or predictions for the coming shitshow. I only remember one.
Trump wins the popular vote but loses the electoral college. This one is cool because the political parties have to flip their programming overnight about the electoral college and we get to see new brainworms develop for how the American democracy was corrupted (how can it be corrupted if it was always an oligarchic dictatorship of capital?).
Will there be recounts? How many states will have stop the steal rallies to intimidate poll workers in non-hwite areas? Will Biden declare martial law when returns on January 6th 2: January 7th? How racist will both political parties get when they lose? Find out ~~next week on~~ over the next week and stay tuned until the season finale on January 20th.
I’ve been watching election coverage since about 7pm. Five and a half hours now. Not a single mention of Palestine as a factor. Not one. Pretty easy to see why Americans are so unbelievably brainwashed when this slop is what passes for news coverage.
I just want things to change. I can't do four more years like this. At least Trump was called out for being shit, I feel like I am going crazy these days talking about being "nuanced" on genocide. Everbody thinks they're so damn clever, yet all the do is repeat what the TV tells them.
When Trump suggested "buying" Greenland from Denmark he was laughed out of the room, had it happened under the current administration it would probably have happened.
Imagine if Covid had begun under Biden. I don't know if there'd been a lockdown. If there'd even been an acknowledgement of a pandemic going on. Maybe there would've, but seeing how the west is just whipped under the US under the dems, and seeing how the dems are just as psychotic as the republicans... I dunno. We'll probably get a bird flu pandemic in the next four years. I wish there was some other maniacal steward that could be handed the reins to mister bones wild ride.
There's a meatgrinder going on in Ukraine and if you even suggest we might have had something to with it... The climate is fucked and now I gotta argue that nothing is being done because of [whatever the TV said this week]. Remember all those toxic rail chemical accidents? Things have only gotten more shit in the last 4 years, but dare suggest it and you gotta look at a graph held up by some dork who you gotta walk thru all the steps of basic cognition, before they'll concede that maybe things aren't doing so good.
I'm tired.
All I can say is... lol, lmao even
Personally, I would have just not run a rabidly zionist and condescending campaign based on denying anything is wrong while increasingly ceding and more ground to the right
If we accept the axioms of the genocide calculus, it turns out that: |{ Americans | Americans who want to vote for 99% }| < |{ Americans | Americans who want to vote for 100% }| due to the Axiom of Americans Being Hitlerites Who Need to Imagine That They are Good People or something, idk I spend all day in Metamath and now my brain is melted
Proof? QED
Tbh I'm kinda happy with whoever loses. Liberals are skin-crawlingly disgusting, pretending they care about anything while endorsing genocide wholeheartedly. They deserve to utterly eat shit and face actual consequences for their gleeful slaughter.
On the other hand, chuds are so comically evil that it's hard to believe sometimes. They just genuinely believe that they are better than everyone and expect everyone to agree with them.
Ultimately, it comes down to who shits their pants hardest then they lose, and I honestly think the liberals would be funnier. Jan 6 was hilarious but will never happen again, Trump's energy has died down so much. But I really, really want to see liberal talking heads pissing and shitting on MSNBC about how the world has ended and democracy has died, only for Trump to be exactly the same as Biden. I want to see them say they're in the Resistance, which consists of posting epic dunks on Twitter and being racist.
No matter who wins, we all lose. But at least some of the losers will be very funny
Looks like she wasn't speaking after all.
She couldn't talk over those who scream from Gaza.
The exchange I had regarding this tweet that was posted as an Instagram post
White Woman: "Can we not put all white women into a box here? How about republican women."
Me: "Crackas doing their own spin on 'not all men' roflmao, really tells you a lot about em"
White Woman: "closed minded its okay"
Me: "You are literally doing 'notallmen' but for white women. Your comment is unequivocally that.
White Woman: "Boooooo 👎"
Me: "Looks like this cracker is salty!"
Then I got blocked.
The nice thing about this big loss is that they can't blame it on third parties.
They're still gonna, but they really can't.
It kinda sucks that despite it being extremely obvious why Kamala lost, Democrats will learn nothing from this and push even harder right. I can't see a world where they ever admit that they went wrong.
It's looking like Biden is gonna lose Miami county. Four years of continuing the blockade on Cuba for nothing
Democratic campaign leader walks out to say the candidate won’t be speaking tonight.
More echoes of 2016.
You get what you fucking deserve
"Harris still has multiple paths to victory. It's annoying it's this close, but there's not reason to panic."
r/politics entering the bargaining phase
Normally not much a chatter but need to vent. I don't even live in a swing state. I'm in as firm a blue state as you can get. Yet my family still feels the need to get mad at me for voting Claudia. As if there's some invisible number you have it hit and then the liberal fairy will give you good boi points.
At least voting PSL eases my conscience a little. If I voted Harris and she still loses I would not only contribute nothing to that result. But then I'd feel shit for voting for the genocide enabler.
Comrade flying the Palestinian flag behind the NBC reporter in Detroit
this is happening because kamala said "do not cum". america isn't ready for a pro orgasm denial president.
The Democrats have nobody to blame but themselves. You cannot beat Trump by running as a centrist and campaigning with Liz Cheney. You give people nothing. You promise healthcare reform and student debt relief and then don't do shit.
There's a reason Trump's "drain the swamp" lies work so well. People know both parties are controlled by their corporate owners, and they're sick of it. Trumpism has it's roots in disaffected working class people, they've just been convinced minorities are to blame for the faults of capitalism.
When material conditions worsen, people are more likely to embrace fascism, especially when there's no alternative but the status quo. If they had let Bernie run in 2016, he would've beat Trump then. But no, the Dems love the status quo, they love their corporate owners, and most of all they love genocide. End the Demokkkrat party.
My mom is simultaneously watching an election livestream while reading election news on her phone, and my dad is literally grilling
The war(s). The war. The fucking war. Oh my god. The war.
Another r/politics comment. Genuinely don't even know what they mean by this but it's probably a bad sign when liberals are going full Colonel Kurtz
Some news for you nerds
The Independence Candidate in Puerto Rico is ~~leading~~ in second place
Lmao someone in my class asked if this was the most polarized america has ever been and my prof pointed out that even before the civil war you had shit like bleeding Kansas going on
In the /r/politics thread:
I expected the chuds to come in here and gloat, you'd be doing the same thing if Harris had won. But the crying and pussyaching from all you libs is embarrassing. Politicians aren't going to save us. Go talk to your neighbors, get involved in your community. Buy a 3D printer and make untraceable ghost guns, distribute them to the unhoused. Start a garden. Organize. Do anything besides punching down and to the left.
I'm curious how much the libs (will) have down-voted this, but I don't care enough to hang onto or find the comment past the vote visibility cool-off period. Reddit is such shit.
Reposting in the proper comm. Accurate analysis of the election, best thing from bernie in a long time, but he still won't call Gaza a genocide
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.
I for and followed the request of the PFLP and didn't vote for a single Democrat or Republican. It's literally the least I could do
These bloodthirsty democratic party shitheads let Netanyahu lead them into a genocide and destroy their chances of winning key states. Amazing. Fuck these evil incompetent freaks.
People kinda told them to stop the Genocide, that killing people is bad, that unhinged bombing is bad, that arming "israel" is wrong especially in the middle of a Genocide, that maybe allying with iraq-war era people is not okay. People kinda warned them, but they didn't hear.
And there you go...
LMAO get fucked, genocidaires. I'm so glad the ghouls who embraced Dick Cheney lost
pulled out ol' reliable:
"did you vote yet?"
"Yeah, like 3 or 4 times now"
People are rightfully criticizing Kamala for running a dogshit campaign but not enough people are criticizing Skibidi Biden. What has he done as a president for the past 4 years to make living in America less miserable? Why would anybody vote for 4 more years of doing jack shit while the conditions are getting worse?
IF I HAD A NICKEL
FOR EVERY TIME
DONALD J. TRUMP
BEAT A WOMAN
IN AN ELECTION
FOR PRESIDENT
I'D HAVE
TWO NICKELS
WHICH ISN'T MUCH
BUT IT'S WEIRD
THAT IT HAPPENED
TWICE
Take the electoralism challenge:
No media or internet, and no active engagement in IRL discussions about politics, starting from next week, until you find out who the winner of the US elections is.
Those who make it to the end of the month without knowing get a gold star.
I really want the Dems to suffer for pushing genocide. But I know in the end they will just blame leftists and third party voters and not learn their lesson.
538-type redditors gooning over this Ann Selzer poll showing Harris at +4 in Iowa because her predictions have been within like 1 points of the actual result for the past few cycles.
Obviously that kind of performance would be insane so I don't see it happening. But I wonder if it's a sign that her odds are better than those currently represented in the polls and prediction models
All i have to say is
lol. Lmao
No wait i got something else: eat shit DNC, maybe NOW you fucks will actually care about an ongoing genocide (i doubt it tho)
"Look, I can admit it. We live in a democracy and Americans want Trump/ Republicans to have free reign. I'll hope for the best. Won't be protesting or organizing either. I'll just enjoy my money and privilege and a government that will now cater to me.
I do fear that the results will be very bad for the people that voted for it. But the people have spoken. God speed."
You've done it, you've broken liberalism down to it's bare essentials (courtesy of r/politics once again)
