Beware the Republican Plot to Steal the 2024 Election
Beware the Republican Plot to Steal the 2024 Election
From Georgia to Arizona, Nevada to Michigan, Republicans are mounting an all-out assault on the election process that journalist Ari Berman refers to as a “five-alarm fire for democracy.”
History has proven time and time and time again, there is only one way to stop fascists, because they will ALWAYS leave you no other choice.
No mercy, no pity, no quarter.
Fuck these people. They absolutely mean you harm. Be ready.
53No tolerance for the intolerant.

What am I going to do?
Like, seriously, what specific actions can I take that will prevent this?
31So, here's the playbook:
They are going to try to challenge local elections to prevent certification.
What you need to do, as a concerned voter, is to be aware of your local process, from voting, through counting, to certification.
If you feel you're being disenfranchised because your vote is either not being counted or not being certified, you should be prepared to take legal action to halt their shenanigans.
Talk to your local elections officials, find out the process, and see if they have plans in place to deal with these challenges. If you have time, offer to help.
9Reach out to your representatives and ask them what they’re doing about it, then tell your family and friends and ask them to reach out to their representatives
8I want to know, too. And specifically, I want suggestions beyond just "vote."
2Save up enough to bus/fly/train to the capital in case of a need to have people to oppose shenanigans.
If you're in a swing state get involved in vote counting.
Hope?
6Encouraging everyone you come into contact with, using all online and IRL contact points, to vote blue!

-2Republicans: "Everybody watch out! There is a Democrat plot to steal the next election!"
Democrats: "Everybody watch out! There is a Republican plot to steal the next election!"
Do you people fucking hear yourselves?
-74Republicans:"democrats are trying to get ILLIEGALS to vote. We have no proof but ahhhhhhhhh!"
Democrats:"man do you remember how close they were when they were caught on video ACTUALLY STORMING THE CAPITOL BUILDING! I bet that they may try something else, like those fake electors, or....read the article"
54But both sides are exactly the same! Why can't you see that? /s

Literally why Republicans project.
They level the playing field by pointing the finger away from themselves for what they themselves are doing. It's no longer just them doing something shitty, it's everyone, or no one. It becomes the childish "no you!" response that kills any argument that could be had if someone from the opposition criticizes them.
20You can't be serious.
18Sigh. There's always at least one of these things in every thread.
4Republicans do a thing, baselessly accuse Democrats of doing that thing, so idiots conclude "oh, both sides are accusing each other of doing that thing, it's probably not happening."
