I better don't say anything here because otherwise I would risk a ban, lol. Words can't describe how ridiculous, disgusting and pervert this whole freakshow is. That's all what I can say here, Let's just pray all together that democracy will win (and I'm saying that as an atheist).

And yeah, this election was insane. It felt like a game when you're rooting for your favorite team. Pretty sure the productivity of US' workforce went down this week.

It was heading that way though.
I hope you do agree that Trump spreading misleading information about fraude without any proof, sending his followers a message to "get ready to fight", and his son literally stating a "war" would be good for America.... is dangerous behavior. He intentionally divides his own nation as a tactic to stay president. I'm glad a small majority voted for "decency".

yeah, no.
people have been screetching from day one how Trump is such a terrible nazi and dictator, yet @ every corner he has done nothing but abide by the courts ruling when challenged. the fact that he puts up a fight doesn't make him a dictator. He has continued to operate within the legal frame work set to him and getting your lawers set up for a "court fight" is not mutually exclusive to inciting revolution. So no, its not heading that way, pure hyperbole., stop reading demonstrably baised press taking things out of context.
Ikeep saying it, look @ a mans actions, not his words. (and I would advice the same for Biden or any other politician). electing someone"because he can talk so politely and smile so nice an decently" is precisely the type of vote-for-the-man not what he stands for that people generally seem to hate populists movements for.
as for proof, that remains to be seen.
couple of examples.
and thats not even getting into the potentially larger systems like "domination"
there's certainly plenty of signals to warrant further investigation, which I find a good thing. If Trump's wrong then he has an even smaller foot to stand on, and if right, well we wouldn't want democracy to lose now wouldn't we
They will start to be respected again and not considered the laughing stock of the West.
The entire sane world has breathed a collective sigh of relief that Trump is now gonna be replaced.
yeah, no.

The first two have been fact checked. The first is straight-up false, and the second is unproven. I don't know what to say about the third - haven't investigated much into it.
Look, Trump can cry voter fraud as much as he'd like. Clearly, those things are worth investigating. Want to know my guess about what will happen?
My guess is that, if voter fraud happened, it will affect Trump more than Biden. We had a similar case in the 2006 elections in Mexico. The losing candidate, Andres Manuel (who's the current president btw) cried voter fraud, and his supporters launched a nation-wide campaign with a catchy slogan. It turned out that Andres Manuel lost more votes than the winning candidate, increasing the margins even further.
