I’m calling for responsibility and maturity and decency from someone who has held one of the highest positions in our government.

And this is why, to all those who tell me to suck it up and work to help Trump and this new administration succeed, I say: no. I will no longer help raise men up at my own expense. I will no longer participate in a state that deems discrimination acceptable. I will no longer sit and smile at the incessant sports…
I’ve already posted this elsewhere, but here it goes again, with updated numbers, because it will never be too much:
Trump may be president-elect, but he does not represent me at all. Those who voted for him do not share the same values as I do.
The referendum is clear: Americans don’t like women in positions of power, and will vote for anything at all against that, given the choice.
James Buchanan? Whose Presidency preceeded the Civil War?
I am not proud to be an American right now. Apparently most of the people here are hateful garbage, pig ignorant, or both.
I did too, only thing I can do right now...women aren’t shit in this country. We can kiss our health care goodbye. I guess we can try to take care of ourselves the best we can.
The free press as we know it is gone and done. Trump has already stated that if he wins he’s going to do everything possible to put them out of business. Then again, most of the mainstream media gave him a pass on his BS and liked him because he delivered clicks and ratings. They gave passing mentions to his scandals…
I’m having one of those “Man in the High Castle” moments when I suspect there might be another, brighter reality, but I’m living in this dystopian version where the world is on the brink of annihilation.
Anyone surprised by this shit has not been paying attention. Y’all think a black president makes us woke? This is what it takes to prove to you that this is our country?
This election has brought on so much PTSD. After being the victim of workplace bullying recently, watching a man bully his way into the highest office in the world makes me sick to my stomach. Trying to process this all has been really hard. I just want to hug my pillow and cry myself to sleep. Maybe the funny…
OMFG. I could not fathom this. America hates women and minorities. However, Trump is a flake so maybe he will stun everyone by turning back to the left. It’s our only hope.
I was going to write a long thing but I drank my sorrows away. I’m so ashamed. Me and my family are fucked. This wasn’t just about red vs blue, real shit was on the line. I’ve never felt so hopeless.
I can’t believe I was so naive. Fuck this country, for real.
I just told my boyfriend that I loved him a couple days ago. He said it back. I wonder if we’re still able to get married if it comes to that. I’m heartbroken on a thousand different issues.
Racism is real. Sexism is real. Xenophobia is real. Homophobia is real.
The image of Clinton, or even anyone, having to call and concede to and congratulate Trump on becoming president, is going to fucking haunt me.
Nowadays there’s so many layers of information on every frame it’s like trying to watch a damn Star Wars prequel. Is George Lucas directing?
So I’ve heard the “they let you do it” = consent argument a few times now and it’s so gross. If somebody is too scared or shocked or polite to punch someone in the face for unwanted physical contact, that’s not consent. It’s more like resignation.
