Biden isn't my guy.
I don't even trust the democrats to run a fair election.
However, I do have respect for the US constitution and the protections it has. The court system over there has clearly shown that there is absolutely ZERO evidence of these claims, and that they are just the claims of a madman, nothing more.
If you want to allege serious election fraud, you have to be able to provide some evidence of those claims.
If you want to allege serious voter fraud on teh same day as terrorists use it as an excuse to attack the capitol, you are being very foolish to say the least.
If you are a senator and you want to allege serious voter fraud on the same day as terrorists use it as an excuse to attack the capitol, and bomb the DNC and RNC, then backing terrorism is your official policy as a politician.

By the way, is Danglar still saying that it's all "political theatre" and that it doesn't matter? I don't remember his other positions from today, but he did say that Biden is retrospectively better than Trump and that Trump should be impeached.
Oh. So there was a breaking point.
That took a while though 🤣

zeo, it's all well and good to dispute election results even if they are legitimate. But you cannot invade the US capitol building to do so. I can protest about COVID restrictions if I were a dumbass but I can't go to your home and give you COVID while "xrcizing mUh Fr3EEe 5p33c4." That is more akin to terrorism.
The govenment of my country employed football hooligans to cause riots, attack police and stir people up. They had camera crews follow them and document the 'violent protests wanting to coup our democracy'.
Entering the Capitol was stupid, no doubt. But all you need are a few useful idiots to cause trouble and stir up the mob and a lot of them got caught up in the moment. I'm not suprised that there were people previously at BLM protests there, both sides have agitators. Now, were these people right wing fifth columnists at those those violent BLM prostest and they are where they belong now? Or are they left wing agitators? We will honestly never know, or by the time we find out no one will care.

As a side note, saying that the political theatre doesn't matter is a very strange position to have when basically all of modern western politics is just political theatre.

You do realize that even Trump appointed judges have consistently rejected him, right?

Left isn't even part of the equation.
Its center right vs far right. Not being far right enough is what beserksword doesn't like about Biden.

The stupidest part about these election fraud claims is that the strongest evidence we have of fraud tells against the Republicans: gerrymandering, mass voter purges, Trump's blatant attempt to sabotage mail in voting. They lost despite their attempts at cheating and now we have to recount and audit infinity times until we reach the desired result? Fuck off already.

I just saw that Chinese media was comparing what happened in Washington with the Protests in Hong Kong. It will take years to repair the damage your nation suffered last night.
I don't think my nation suffered damage yesterday. I honestly don't care about global opinion on the US, especially china's opinion lol. The US, despite its flaws, is still the gold standard in my eyes.
I am pro 2nd amendment
I am anti-green new deal/government intervention to deal with "catastrophic" climate change
I am anti-war
I am anti-imperialism
I am anti-reparations
I am anti-tax
I am anti-open borders
I am anti-business regulation
I am anti-central banking
I am anti-BLM and anti-antifa
No - I don't think a rogue Congress fearing the people is worse than Marxists decimating cities, including my home of NYC, and ruining lives and private property, for months on end.
Democrats, including Harris, across the board have enabled and supported riots for months, and gaslighted regarding the nature and effects of the riots.
It might be hard for you, to imagine, but a significant number of Americans don't want the US to turn into Germany, France, Sweden, etc. Myself included. I am incredibly thankful that my parents ended up in the US rather than some more socialist/welfare country with no gun rights.
By the way I'm well aware that Trump has violated a lot of the things I care about, like his bump stock ban or his 180 on central banking. He's a trojan horse by the left in my eyes (he is classic NYC liberal). But it's to a lesser extent than career-long crook like Biden and supercop Harris. And obviously trump's rhetoric is better for a right winger like me.
Most democrats (the politicians not the electorate) are the pinnacle of scourge in my eyes, and if I were forced to vote between Trump and Biden, it would be Trump 100 times out of 100.

Presure and fear of retaliation from the incomming government plays a very large part in this unfortunately.
Edit: in any case the vote should have been invalidated in all states using the dominion voting system and should have been repeated (normal voting, without the machines). Nobody would have contested the results after that

There's not a lot of bright spots of late. But I think this is one. Whatever you think of conservative judges, it's clear the US got conservative judges appointed, not Trump judges. Also, as passive and behind the scenes Pence has been the entire time, at least it turns out there was some constitutionalism (is that a word?) left in him when it came to the counting. We could've found a Trump yes man at a very inopportune moment (Giuliani?) which would've been quite bad. And given the turn over in Trump's administration, it's not so easy to survive. But he did survive and so it wasn't.
Is this all damning with faint praise? Yeah, I guess. But I find this all very depressing, so I'm grasping for wins here.

I neither posted in the election thread, nor voted for trump, but I still think trump is the lesser evil compared to Harris/Biden. Please elaborate. How can anyone be worse than this? I just saw that Chinese media was comparing what happened in Washington with the Protests in Hong Kong. It will take years to repair the damage your nation suffered last night. I don't think my nation suffered damage yesterday. I honestly don't care about global opinion on the US, especially china's opinion lol. The US, despite its flaws, is still the gold standard in my eyes. I am pro 2nd amendment I am anti-green new deal/government intervention to deal with "catastrophic" climate change I am anti-war I am anti-imperialism I am anti-reparations I am anti-tax I am anti-open borders I am anti-business regulation I am anti-central banking I am anti-BLM and anti-antifa No - I don't think a rogue Congress fearing the people is worse than Marxists decimating cities, including my home of NYC, and ruining lives and private property, for months on end. Democrats, including Harris, across the board have enabled and supported riots for months, and gaslighted regarding the nature and effects of the riots. It might be hard for you, to imagine, but a significant number of Americans don't want the US to turn into Germany, France, Sweden, etc. Myself included. I am incredibly thankful that my parents ended up in the US rather than some more socialist/welfare country with no gun rights. By the way I'm well aware that Trump has violated a lot of the things I care about, like his bump stock ban or his 180 on central banking. He's a trojan horse by the left in my eyes (he is classic NYC liberal). But it's to a lesser extent than career-long crook like Biden and supercop Harris. And obviously trump's rhetoric is better for a right winger like me. Most democrats (the politicians not the electorate) are the pinnacle of scourge in my eyes, and if I were forced to vote between Trump and Biden, it would be Trump 100 times out of 100.
I actually had to throw up after reading this.

And people get angry when elections get stolen, they get very angry when the institutions in place to stop it are all doing everything in their power to turn a blind eye. Why are you talking about stolen elections and fraud? It didn't happen. Because the people doing the election rigging say it didn't happen? Large swaths of election fraud cases being denied while blocking evidence from being presented at all is very much proof to anyone even lightly following the post election. I'm sure more people voting in a county than there are actually people living there and dead people voting is normal in Eastern Europe and Africa, but not in the US. Now, you can turn a blind eye because 'your guy won', but its the Democrats that should be the most furious at their politicians in this case. Sure, you won, but at what cost? It's all downhill morally from here on out. A biased 'factchecker' says nothing to see here, move along doesn't mean that the Democrat voters should move on. They should be the ones scrutinizing this election harder than anyone. You do realize that even Trump appointed judges have consistently rejected him, right? Presure and fear of retaliation from the incomming government plays a very large part in this unfortunately. Edit: in any case the vote should have been invalidated in all states using the dominion voting system and should have been repeated (normal voting, without the machines). Nobody would have contested the results after that
At least conspiracy theorists try to present (bad) sources. You just go around saying something happened with no evidence and deflect by making an even bigger conspiracy theory when asked about them.
You can do better than that.

what does your list even mean? just a bunch of vague descriptions that dont actually provide insight on what your priorities are. the only thing that is abundantly clear is youre a gun nut and would defend that at all costs.
the irony in your last sentence is outstanding

Because thats the way things go when the political system in countries start going downhill like this. Throwing out cases without even letting any evidance be presented is not normal. This is nothing for people that are already all in on elecrion rigging.

Imagine. If my parents hadn't chosen wisely I could be living in a country where I wouldn't have to pay my hospital bill and I couldn't own an assault rifle. The horror.
