according to computer security experts, the US presidential election was likely hacked via voting software.

The numbers Trump achieved are non-credible.

If you are in a swing state, call up your Secretary of State and demand a manual recount.

    It is a little disheartening that the right will riot and everyone else is just like "I guess we lost. We don’t need to double check "

        Not in what way? The right was totally justified in their anger, it was just successfully coopted into Cheeto fandom. If the left did what they did (only better)then they’d be doing exactly what they should be.

        Moments like these are the real purpose for the 2nd.

      haha, yeah, even if there wasn’t so much hard evidence, you’d think the dems would demand a manual recount in any case, just to fucking take a dig at them.

    The state of everything is scary and it’s important to look out for yourselves and each other. Clinging to conspiracies is not it. Please reach out to those you trust for help.

    Edit: The community’s pinned post is an important resource.

    Edit 2: I’m sorry, I’m not trying to be a doomer. I just want people to prepare for all outcomes and to be safe. I hope I’m wrong and its important to have each other’s backs.

      I’m starting to feel like everybody claiming that this is a hoax are the ones in conspiracy theory territory. I mean your comment is gaslighting the OP.

      The evidence is damning, read the article.

      We all know that if musk and Trump figured out a way to cheat they would do it.

      And the numbers don’t add up. Just on the face of it when you look at the bullet ballots it’s obviously bullshit.

      And then cybersecurity experts explain how they did it. Read the article.

        You should watch the video. The guy claiming the ballots don’t add up doesn’t have any data to show as evidence.

      this is not clinging to conspiracies.

      did you read the article?

      this is court-based data that Trump’s lawyers stole election software and now there are millions of votes that have never been there before.

      this is hard evidence.

      If it’s true, it is a conspiracy just like the fraudulent elector scheme, that was a conspiracy and also real because of the facts and evidence behind it.

      this is not the time to go all defeatist.

        Look up the guy who wrote the article. He’s been crying wolf about stolen elections for two decades. This is his whole brand. He calls himself a “cybersecurity expert”, but he has absolutely zero experience in cybersecurity. He’s just fishing for atttention.

        The guys broke into an election office and stole software is a real thing, but it also isn’t evidence at the election was stolen. Just that Republicans stole shit from an election office after the 2020 election, and we all know that there were no shortage of delusional election-deniers convinced they were gonna find hard evidence if they looked hard enough.

        The software they stole is available online for everyone to see. The election data is also available for real experts to pour over. I haven’t heard a single reputable cybersecurity expert raise the alarm about this, and if there were real evidence, they would be blowing shit up right now over it.

          that’s incorrect.

          read the first open letter with the eight reputable cyber security experts raising alarm about this.

          people apparently don’t like that one guy from the second letter, you can ignore him if you don’t personally like him.

          there are many other scientists concerned about the fact that Trump’s lawyers admitted to stealing the voting software and 90% of the voters in the swing states used that software.

          The conservatives tried to steal the election in 2020 and failed, maybe they tried in 2024 like they said they would try and succeeded.

          let’s do a manual count and see if all of those votes are there.

          cyber security experts in good standing are saying a manual recount is a good idea, not just the one guy that you don’t like.

            Nah dawg, sorry. If you’re making claims that the most controversial U.S. election ever was stolen using a sophisticated cyberattack, and only 8 nobodies sign your open letter, you’re full of shit. Wake me when Krebs says something.

      Ah yea, random YT video from a creator that doesn’t even have 200k subscribers is totally a reliable and hard source of facts and information.

      It’s not a conspiracy theory if evidence is building.

        The substack author has 19k subscribers by that metric. That being said I don’t think we should use that metric.

        I don’t trust Spoonamore as a claimed expert. He has been making unsubstantiated election rigging claims for almost a decade.
