This is a really good thread that I've been reading and not posting in because I have nothing of value to contribute, but seriously I'm so loving sorry for this awful night and that you all have to live in this garbage country. I wish I had more to offer but I really don't know what to say that wouldn't sound even more empty than this already does.

Same man. I am so sorry for you guys. The white poor working class loving shot themselves in the head, they deserve what's coming to them. I am just sorry that they're dragging PoC, women and lgbt down with them.

Stay safe.

"Tiny Trains"

All my black family in the US is terrified, and my Ukrainian family in Ukraine is also feeling the same. This is really scary, I feel no smugness that many canadians apparently do. Also some of my ukraine family are muslim, so it's this perfect mix of trump absolutely hating my family all around the world.

I guess the new narrative is going to be that if Bernie Sanders were nominated, then Trump would have lost which is a pretty dumb narrative, especially since we aren't even sure that people of color would have turned out for him.

Black people didn't turn out for him in the primaries. That's the issue. The Alt Right was successful in making black people distrust the Democratic Party, and that has showed itself in how they/we vote. It would have been worse for him in the general, because at least older black women like Clinton.

for people asking what's wrong with america, the answer is simple. It starts with "white" and ends with "macy."

every (non-LGBT) demographic of white people voted majority trump. nobody else did. this is a whitelash and the fault lies squarely on white people's terror of PoC getting rights.

statistically it is more likely any white people you see tomorrow voted trump. think about that. think about how much they hate us (in the broad PoC sense).

there is no longer a justification for anybody to hesitate to say it- white people are racist monsters.

They will. The dumbasses that voted for them will be the ones most affected by the removal of Obamacare, thhe inevitable weakening of social security, medicare, the wealth transference to the wealthy by lower taxes, weakened worker rights, etc. And I will laugh and I sincerely hope they suffer, with every fiber of my being. Innocent people will die now, and it's all on their heads, so when they are breaking their backs working 20 hours a day and getting hooked on painkillers, and they are slaves to the corporate overlords due to weakened workers laws I will laugh. Reap the whirlwind you evil horrible fucks.

I don't remember if it was here or the misogynoir thread that mentioned that white-trans folk tend to have an easier time of things than trans PoC, but goddamn white privilege/fragility is a hell of a drug. I had to recuse myself from facebook cause i found out that a sizeable number of my white trans acquaintances openly supported Trump because he was the anti-establishment candidate and they were salty about Bernie and because Hillary was focusing on racial minorities (apparently ignoring the fact that in addition to those people, Trump would be awful for trans folk too). Just so loving pissed that they were so willing to throw Trans PoC under the bus like that, even if it was to be expected cause holy poo poo gently caress white supremacy. Between that and all the poo poo heads coming out castigating the Dems for not coddling white racists fee fees has me all kinds of salty, which is not mixing well with the existential dread and horror.

Let me tell you about log cabin republicans...

gay white men have been basically fine with most of white america for a long time and they straight up do not give a gently caress about the rest of the queer community except when the queer community can help them get something they want. they got marriage equality, so now it's straight back to voting republican so that they can get tax breaks on their "we're two white men" income.

I dunno. They are the same kind of person that is all "YOu are pathetic if you unfriend someone on FB over politics." and I have been trying to not post something akin to what you said in this post cause I am just so loving pissed. The circle she runs is super loving anti-sjw to the point they are racist.
