Yeah it's really really frustrating that people got hooked onto this damn "the election was stolen by HACKING" when holy shit you guys that's almost impossibly hard and legal methods of skewing the vote through disenfranchisement have worked 10000x better for conservatives with no risk of jail time
SERIOUSLY like the logistics of hacking the vote are insanely complicated and would be really hard to cover up, while gerrymandering or getting rid of the fucking Voting Rights Act works just fine and is perfectly legal. The election was absolutely stolen, but not in a way that a recount is going to fix, and latching onto “hacking” as the reason Dems lost is just going to distract people. I get the appeal of the idea and also the desperation behind it, I get it on a very visceral level, but we need to plan for the next four years instead of trying for a last-ditch miracle.
