This is me coming to you all again to ask that you please tag your posts about the US election. Literally most of the world has no input on the outcome. Many of us a bored of it. Those who aren't can search the tags.
Signed,
The Rest of the World.
P.S. I'd be more forgiving if you posted about policies, but it's all sofa-fucking, dementia, racism, and cult-of-personality stuff. It's the most mind-numbingly stupid 'political commentary' I've ever seen.

Many Americans have spent the past eight years joining political cults: a common phenomenon in flawed democracies turning into autocracies. Americans must reject cult logic if we want our nation to survive.
This includes not building a political cult around Kamala Harris. A campaign is different than a cult. It is one thing to back a candidate and cheer them on. It is another to submit to a mindset of fear, deference, and servitude; to browbeat fellow voters offering constructive criticism; and to proclaim a politician’s every puzzling move either an Act of God or evidence of a Secret Noble Plan.
Americans created cults around Trump, Mueller, Garland, Pelosi, Garland, Fauci, “Q”, and Biden, among others, to the detriment of our nation’s health and to the benefit of grifters’ wallets.
- Sarah Kendzior reminding us not to fall for political cults

"It's pretty much impossible to go anywhere in Iraq and not be reminded of Saddam. Thousands of portraits of him appear on walls and in glazed mosaic tiles on concrete plaques. In granite, bronze, and gilded statues he holds a sword aloft; he prays; he rides a prancing stallion. Saddam smiles, frowns, fires guns, smokes cigars. He is depicted wearing a black leather greatcoat and matching trilby; in military uniform; in Arab robes, three-piece suits, and even, oddly, trekking gear. He is sometimes thin, sometimes imposingly muscular, occasionally fat, his face pouchy and double-chinned. He wears a judge's robes and holds scales in his hands; dandles small children on his knee; stands with bloodied sword over a mutilated serpent whose tail is in the form of a cruise missile. On one building, eight identical smiling Saddams are set together, creating an effect not unlike that of Warhol's 'Marilyn Diptych.'" -- Jon Lee Anderson, "The Unvanquished", The New Yorker, December 11, 2000
It's almost chilling how similar this sounds to the ridiculous propaganda images on social media used in the present-day United States to build up the MAGA/Trump personality cult. This is happening here.
