I mean if you only saw and read Reddit during the last election campaign, you'd be ABSOLUTELY sure at the first half of the campaign that Biden was going to win, might as well don't have an election at that point
And then, after Kamala got into the campaign, again, if you only saw and read Reddit, you'd be, again, ABSOLUTELY sure that she would win, it wasn't even a contest.
If reality were downvotes, upvotes or massive bans to users posting against the thread zeitgeist, yeah sure, that would be what happened.
Hard to accept reality after that harsh wakeup call
