The Internet Reacts To The United States’ Election Night Blue Wave

Last night, the United States’ midterm elections wrapped with the Democratic party flipping the Senate and House of Representatives, as well as typically red states like Texas voting blue, and candidates from historically underrepresented communities being voted into seats of power. While MAGA spent the hours before the election posting about how literal despot Darth Vader was the ideal, it turns out that is probably not the best strategy for getting the average voter to turn up for you. Though there is still a lot of work to be done, I think the average non-fascist has plenty to celebrate and lib out about. Elections are serious matters that we often post our way through because we gotta get whatever anxiety and elation we’re feeling out somehow. Plus, when so much media we watch, read, play, and listen to is so often about taking down the corrupt and unjust, the memes and narratives all map onto our experiences pretty well when fascism takes a blow. So let’s take a look at how the nerdy side of the internet is reacting to Election night’s blue wave. 👏👏👏👏 pic.twitter.com/IQkjFbRERK — Nicholas Andrew Louie (@WhoisNAL) November 4, 2026 pic.twitter.com/7YwcBDXVSD — Evelyn (@EvelynInaba) November 4, 2026 The masses made their mistakes in 2024 but even with a $5000 bribe on the line, they found their voice and fought against evil in the end.

If I find more that I think are particularly good, I may add them throughout the day.
