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!
I don’t think Gaza is irrelevant to the election, it’s just that it’s only an issue that a minority of people (some progressives, many Muslims, etc) care about to the extent that it’ll influence their voting pattern. So in a state election with a small margin between Harris and Trump, it could be one (of several) deciding factors as to who gets pushed over the edge. It’s like saying that the Libertarian Party or Green Party is totally irrelevant in the election just because neither will win outright - their mere presence will at least somewhat influence who will become the victor in swing states.
That’s fair. Heard and agreed.
