2022 midterm election results *** OFFICIAL THREAD ***

[ClaytonB]

I don't know about that. WE just had an election with no gains; Nordstream pipelines were blown up with Europe about to be heading into the dark ages and the same planned for here; billions have been stolen to be sent to Ukraine and, before that, for "COVID" and the biggest human trafficking operation in history is going on at our southern border, followed by the same in Europe. It look, to me, like the psychopaths are winning.

I think the imagery of the Wizard of Oz is an excellent way to understand the clown-"elites" -- they project this larger-than-life image but, when you peek behind the curtain, you see that it's just a frail old man. That's not to say that their power is "fake" -- obviously, they are moving the masses this way and that way. But it's a natural human trait to "fill in the blanks" of what we can't see, with what we are shown. So, when they show us images of lots of heavily-armed police and surveillance systems, it's easy to imagine "they already control everything and there's no hope." The reality is that they are gaming everything, and that's a big part of how they are able to apparently achieve this impossible degree of "hyper-competence". If their political tactics are so effective, how come we're not able to copy them and at least neutralize them? Well, it's because we keep trying to play the game "fair-and-square", and they're not even doing that. They're rigging the game, long before you ever get to the ballot-box, the game has already been rigged a million ways from Sunday.

Just think about Elon Musk's disclosure that Twitter may be made up of as much as 80% bots (a number he has not revised, even after acquiring the company). Based on my own reading and technological knowledge, I am of the opinion that this bot problem is much more widespread than non-techies would imagine -- I am comfortable suggesting that north of 50% of all social media platforms are farmed/bot/fake/scripted users and content. (I am excluding ads and just talking about the feed itself... but you'll realize that ads are also part of the machine once you understand how it works.) Obviously, the vast bulk of opinion-formation occurs nowadays through digital/social media. So, while you're handing out flyers door-to-door and sticking yard signs in people's yards, the opposition is firing off batch-scripts on an Amazon Web Services server to feed 100% fake content onto the social media feeds of everyone in your city, county, state and nation. It's no more difficult to seed this kind of fake push-content to the entire nation, than it is to do it in a local city (the Internet is inherently global).

The globalists are a paper-tiger. They're an extremely dangerous paper-tiger, but still a paper-tiger.

After slow-rolling the count for almost a full week, Alaska just had a ballot dump that put establishment Republican Lisa Murkowski behind by only .2% to MAGA Republican Kelly Tshibaka, previously Murkowski down by about 2%.

These big moves are a sign that they are both arrogant and desperate.
This is when they look most powerful but are most vulnerable to their own mistakes.

You can't be serious. These aren't moves, they are long term strategies. As for "desperate", one needs to feel fear to feel desperate. Did you know that psychopaths don't feel fear? That's a fact and it's what gives them such an advantage in whatever they do.

lol

True!

Now just wait a few days for the rail strike to hit.

What to Make of the Midterms?
The only 'red trickle' is coming from beneath Paul Ryan's legs.

To give you an idea of how badly the national GOP soldiered this whole cluster fuck:

That's by CD not county.

Excluding the few grey areas that have yet to be called, how much land mass is that by percentage?

70?

80?

More, that voted for GOP representation.

Raw House numbers look like this:

50,045,157 Democrat 47.5
53,664,484 Republican 50.9
Republicans +3.4

And yet because of the total fuckery of GOP leadership, net governor seats were lost, net senate seats were lost, net state senate and legislature seats were lost, and the US House barely, just barely flipped over to GOP control, which is not guaranteed yet, as a number of races have yet to be called.

Utterly fucking worthless.

 

[Anti Federalist]

Oh, and any state that initiates "ranked choice voting" will never, ever, elect a "conservative" again.

Associated Press, MSNBC, CNN and Fox have all called it for Warnock

No surprise there.

Only thing that surprises me (slightly) is that Georgia has now, three times in a row, voted for a black Communist for senator.

"The Long March" has paid off for the left, in spades.

What's left of this country that does not secede will look like Venezuela in another 20 years or less.

And, of course...everybody has kept their jobs or gotten promotions.

This is Trump's fault. There is no excuse for the shitty candidates he pushed in the primaries. PA and GA could have been won with mediioce middle of the road Republican candidates.

Meh...you're grasping at easy answers. Not that electing a slate of more Mitt Romneys and Lisa Murks and Turtles McConnell are any kind of "answer"

The real answer is much more complicated and much more difficult to correct.

It would have been a better result though. Controlling the house and senate would have been a preferable outcome even if that included middle of the road experienced Republicans in office. Did anyone really thing Walker or Oz would have been effective senators?

Secession is not going to happen. We are living out the modern version of the decline and fall of the Roman Empire.

 

[Occam's Banana]

Secession is not going to happen.

It may not happen, and may not be likely to happen, but I don't think it can be claimed with certainty that it will not or can not happen.

We are living out the modern version of the decline and fall of the Roman Empire.

An even better analogy is the decline and fall of the Roman Republic.

The parallels between present-day America and the late Roman Republic are many and striking - increasing degradation and escalating abrogations of mos maiorum (especially in regard to its political norms), massive and contentious expansions of enfranchisement, the financial and logistic difficulties of maintaining client-state hegemony, etc. (The only really "big" things missing are analogs of the Marian military reforms.)

If not repetition, then there is certainly a lot of "rhyming" going on. Rhymes have a tempo, though, so before we get to our version of Julius Caesar (let alone Octavian/Augustus) - and if you are correct that secession won't happen (or maybe even because it does happen) - then we're basically just waiting for a latter-day Sulla ...
