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!

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.

Yeah part of what made things be more unusual in 2020 and January 6th was covid stressing the system and people. It's hard to know what will happen with the current material conditions. American elections will continue to be a farce but we won't know how until it happens.

Fair point. This is pure vibes but nobody has the energy of the last two elections. Wonder if turnout will reflect that.
