It's not satisfying, but I'm more interested in how the right wing propaganda machine won the information war. Going forward, I'm interested in ways to preserve democracy under the new administration and be competitive in the new information landscape. Bluesky is a good step.

Similar to my reply earlier; that's a very big claim to make without hard evidence. If there is something "there" that affected results, I'm sure it would surface. This theory has been spread pretty widely, so campaign lawyers would definitely be aware of the claims.

We need to avoid election conspiracy theories. Congress and the courts would of course be the constitutional avenues for challenges to his presidency... however unlikely it may be to get checks and balances from Mike Johnson or the 6-3 SCOTUS.

There are non-credible conspiracy theories about election fraud making the rounds on social media. Likely from foreign sources pretending to be on "our" side to spread division. Each state of course has thorough counting and canvassing procedures.

They'll join soon enough once enough people they want to troll are here. Luckily, with effective tools to ignore and without being promoted by an oligarch site owner.

So glad to see people moving to an open platform that doesn't boost trolls. Less food for them.
