This thread is for the Presidential election, my plan is to start marking wins as soon as they are called, sorted by time zone.
Some states are going to take longer than others. Polls generally close at 8 PM local time, but they can’t start counting early/mail in votes until after the polls close.
Wisconsin in particular has an interesting system where ballots are collected by MUNICIPALITY, not precinct, they have over 1,800 ballot counting locations and don’t report until ALL 1,800 are in.

It is.
I agree. That is essentially the root of my argument based on the circumstances, historical context, and available evidence.
This is not not coming from a place of arrogance. I’m sorry if you interpret my comments this way. I take no pleasure nor pride in providing the analysis that violent resistance to to a rising tide of fascism may be necessary in our lifetime.
I don’t even necessarily disagree with this. I just thought the population would be more sober minded about the threat of ceding democracy to a demagogue who now has unchecked legal authority to remake society in his own image. I was wrong. I will never make that mistake again. From here on out I will be significantly more militant about my ideology.
Most normal people don’t want to believe that this is the case. They don’t have to, they have had the privilege of ignoring it, for they are not the ones being persecuted. It’s background noise and if anything it turns them off.
People care about healthcare, education, cost of living, career prospects, inflation, basic rights, y’know stuff that pertains to them in their everyday lives. If the Republicans are the only ones pointing that stuff out and offering any solutions, even if their reasons and solutions are bullshit and serve bigoted ends, people will be swayed to vote for them and will doubt and explain away all the negative media because it’s unpleasant to think about.
Democrats just don’t seem to be willing to champion popular policy, and that is why they lost.
Anyways, seems like we’re only somewhat in disagreement.
I don’t think we are actually in disagreement at all. I agree with every single thing you just framed out in your reply. I believe were just explaining different pieces of the same premise using our own perspective as the prism.
Edit: Didn’t really intend for the alliteration, but I liked it so I decided to leave it even though normally I think that is kinda cringe…
