Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:
Be civil
Jokes are okay, but don’t intentionally harass or disturb any member of our community. Sexism, racism and bigotry are not allowed. Good faith argumentation only. No posts discouraging people to vote or shaming people for voting.
No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
If she was campaigning based on how the world should work instead of how the world works then she wasn't playing by the rules of the game, and that's her fault, no one else's. It's like complaining about the EC after an election. The EC is part of the game. Part of the mechanics, part of the rules. If you know it's there going into the game, you ought to be playing a very different game than someone who doesn't know it exists.
(The EC should be removed, to be clear, but you don't run a presidential election pretending it's not there, and you don't run a presidential election you want to win without expecting to sell voters on yourself by some metric other than not being your opponent.)
And yes, since it seems you have to say this as part of every such comment now, I voted for her. But she and her campaign are absolutely not blameless in this outcome.
