I think it's likely that a number of very disillusioned Dems are going to start questioning the validity of electoral politics over the next few weeks.

When I did the same, some years back, I was very lucky that the people I followed, followed back, and conversed with on Twitter (at the time) were pretty gentle with me as I worked through, basically, Anarchism 101 ("but what about burglars?" "you don't mean, like, ALL police, though, surely?" and all sorts of "yeah, I suppose, but..." that I had whilst I was unlearning a lifetime of propaganda - whether I was inclined to unlearn it or not, it was still *hard work*)
I hope we can be as gentle and welcoming to them as the people I spoke with back then were to me.
