[FRIAM] Biden beats Trump

[uǝlƃ ↙↙↙]

Yep. The other thread talking about uniting us in the face of polarization seem to miss this point. One pundit expressed it well "You don't seek unity with your abuser." As Barr and a host of Republicans, including McConnell <https://www.nytimes.com/2020/11/09/us/politics/republicans-trump-concede-2020-election.html>, continue to hypocritically undermine the electoral process, any attempt to "unite" with them is akin to co-dependency with a narcissist spouse.

*After* the dust settles, Biden has no choice but to wrangle and hog-tie the bad faith actors into productive behavior. But until then, everyone who continues making unsubstantiated claims of fraud should be seen as what they are. Skepticism is a good mistress, but a bad master.
