put all of your election posting here so it doesn't bother anyone else!

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!

My turbolib natohawk dad just went "keep your bags packed and money in your wallet in case you have to leave, the biggest shithead has just become the leader of the world" regarding Trump getting elected.

We are in Finland... wtf does he think is going to happen? How are these people real? How are these people this gone that they think the US president is the leader of the world. Unless they only count the west as "the world" (I assume it's this).

I didn't want to stir the pot by asking if nato is still a good idea or where he thinks we should go, Russia? Lol

Would actually love that. But as it is, I can't even do that with all this western freedom.

I really hope they open the border eventually. Was doing that trip on Allegro until they sold it off for parts.

LEAVE FOR WHERE?!

Haha I know right?

But I am pretty sure these are the "Trump loves Putin" brainworms. These people possibly genuinely think Trump will somehow aid Putin in taking over the world and smol bean Finland along with it.

Not going to ask about this though, it pains me enough as it is to realize how gullible and dumb my supposedly smart father is.

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

He thinks Trump is going to give Putin permission to invade Finland. Something Putin definitely wants or ever wanted to do.

actual lol at "We are in Finland" because at first I was under the assumption you were in burgerland but I guess I should've picked up on the lack of 'keep your passport in your bag' that is included with such lib warnings here i-cant
