    I'm one of the _extremely proud_ minority who voted to deny authoritarianism. Despite my sadness & shock, I hold my head up high, knowing that I tried to do the right thing. I can look at my two daughters (26 & 8) & my son (24) in the eye, knowing that I have their best future in mind. My oldest daughter is one of the many transgender Americans who are now fearful of what's going to happen. I'm also fearful for her & the entire LGBTQIA+ community... along with so many women, immigrants, People of Color, and anyone else who will undoubtedly see their basic human rights trampled & stripped away after struggling for _so long_ against the denial of said rights. I do not have a large platform or millions of dollars, or the ability to join protests across the country... but I still have _a voice_ & an unbreakable will that demands a better world. I don't plan on giving up, and I hope that y'all won't either!

      Watching it from abroad, a German citizen and a PoC, I experience the USA with the fascination of horror. The fact, that this guy gets a second term is unbelievable. No matter what you can share with him, but if you believe in democracy, January 6. should tell you, that letting this guy into the White House again is a big mistake. I think the USA is literally doomed. And so is us, the rest of the world. The human society is in flames (so is the planet!), and a majority of American voters elected an evil entertainment clown, who likes to play with gasoline.
      We are collectively in a much greater danger than before the election of 45 as 47.

      Trump has NEVER said he’s changing any type of benefit Americans rely on. Health Insurance in the USA is a business & It’s the Insurance companies that decide what is & is not covered & the changes are due to the COST of the benefit or treatment they pay out. I know because I handled health benefits.
      Obama care was supposed to be the same as health care in Canada. IT IS NOT! Canadians DO NOT have free healthcare. They pay federal & provincial (state) taxes & ARE NOT penalized for not getting insurance. The bad part of not having private insurance, a doctor MUST refer you to a specialist & it could take days, weeks, months & years.
      Harris lied when she said Trump is connected to Project 2025. Trump is not mentioned in the 900+ pages, nor did Harris READ it. Her team decided to LINK all of Trumps policies to Project 2025 because & I quote: “it resounds within voters.”

I’ve witnessed were U.S citizens (1st of all I’m white who supports Kamala) In my university where I used to study I had classmates who were of different backgrounds - one was black and the other was Filipino. Throughout our time at the university, they were protected by individuals who openly embraced liberal views, who openly supports Obama, shielding them from harassment by Trump supporters around the Campus due to their race which they faced almost every school year, even after college, they dealt with a lot of hate crimes from Trumpists during his presidency (visibly shown in their Social Media) the Filipino individual lost a family member due to a hate crime attack during the Trump presidency, and guess what?They were openly Trump Supporters on their social media posts during the 2020 and 2024 election. When I asked (online) the black person what is her reason, it was “Jesus first”, while the Filipino girl responded “Because I’m smart” and shared a lot of posts in her social media, mocking the democrats’ love for togetherness (through her captions) and horribly edited photos of Harris and of the democrats from our university who had been always there for them (one of those liberals even spent money for her health care during the pandemic, if it wasn’t for it she’d be gone by now) and still went against them and democracy in general. I also heard several Filipinos for Trump, this is what they’ve bought back after liberals fought against Asian hate Crimes. All for the 💵 I HAD DONE A LOT OF RESEARCHES. NOTE THAT THE PHILIPPINES WAS KNOWN TO HAVE A NICEST PEOPLE, WELL GUESS WHAT? They have a lot of Trump Worshippers, for the sake of money, they even have I am racist t-shirts (I’ve seen Filipino locals wearing it during my trip to the Philippines) This shouldn't deter us from being the heroes we all have the potential to be.

Leave the complications to me. That way, I can simply help make your life better, and leave you to worry about the issues you find to be more pertinent to your immediate peripheral. Maybe you'd be more interested with inconsequential social issues that nobody agrees on.

      Throughout Obama's presidency, I felt a tremendous change in the culture, one where outright bigotry was shamed and things looked up for minorities. But you could always see these glimpses, that you hoped were just embers of a fire long gone. But after 2016, the bandaid that was the Obama term broke off and the festering wound started leaking uncontrollably. This election result is a demonstration of that, a majority of a population that previously hid it, are now in the open proudly celebrating their hate, selfishness, xenophobia, lack of empathy, and sense of superiority. It almost feels like Trump is a symptom of something already there, and it makes me incredibly disappointed in those around me, even (especially) family.

      I'm so sorry. it breaks my heart reading that! i am a white man from the countryside of the Netherlands. ever since i left i have learned how toxic the environment i grew up in is and going back to see some of my old friends is becoming harder and harder. sometimes people will feel comfortable to say the most horrible things because they think i automatically agree with them, and when i confront them they say they're half joking (but not fully) and that I'm too sensitive. they get angry when i tell them their jokes or ideas are based on racist ideology, but i see that they are hypercritical of non white people and almost celebrate whenever a non white person does something bad because it validates their beliefs. i cried when my friend told me: "Nobody beliefs they are racist here, but if I make one mistake in public I am no longer a person, I have become the physical manifestation of the root of all their problems." they are conditionally compassionate, which isn't compassion at all. i wish there was more that i could do, but it's so hard to make ground when there are so many hypocrisies. the oppressors convince the people that the oppressed are the problem, the perpetrator believes they are the victim. the challenges today are enormous but i will never give up the fight. much love and be well ❤️

      This is very true. It is very painful to admit one is wrong. It goes against our very nature. We will defend our thinking to the death before changing it. And this is true of the left, too. That is the core problem. 100% of the people in the country think 50% of the people are stupid and evil and none of us are in that 50%.
      From Psychology Today
      "Admitting we are wrong is difficult because we attach our sense of self to an idea, cause, or group. When we feel that idea about the self, our identity, is threatened, our evolutionarily-linked fight, flight, or freeze survival mechanism becomes activated. We defend against being wrong and fight to be right."

There is a greater probability of fraud then there isn’t. I wonder, nationwide, how many extremely partisan, MAGA election workers there are and how many kept it a secret? Represents the least risk since the fraud would then be distributed nationwide, no one place could do something like this, but a coordinated effort could. If there is fraud that’s where it would be found.

Add all that to a native distrust of experts, anti-intellectualism and intense racism and it’s easy to figure out.

My mom has been raging and fearmongering about Biden and then Harris, spewing sexist bullshit. Now they're trying to tell me to "calm down" and that "everything is going to be ok for abortion." Nah, I don't fucking believe them. Trump and his ilk have shown their colors, they've announced what they want to do. I don't want to visit for Christmas but my parents are trying to guilt trip me. I don't want to visit with fascists. The saying goes "A Nazi sits at a table with 9 people and no one leaves. How many Nazis are there? 10."

I am really worried for my trans friends overseas. I am worried for Ukraine. I am worried for the world in general. This fight is beyond borders and nations now, it's for the minds of people.

      then you're an idiot. this is the same drivel the left has been spouting for at least the last 8yrs, and what did it get you? You lost in 2016, but not by much. You won in 2020, mainly due to C19... then, with the same message, you got trounced in historic fashion in 2024 when the American people saw it was a mistake to go Biden over Trump in 2020. if this is the message you're going to continue to fight your fight with... be prepared for another loss in 2028. The American people just spoke loud and clear that this message is not the message they want to hear. You've now lost everything... house, senate, supreme court, white house, and amazingly... the popular vote too. the whole country just told you to F-off. This is your chance to change the message and get things right on your side, not run with the same thinking, the same talking points, etc. Any next time, you can't win any "feelings" votes by yelling "orange man bad" since his terms will be up. you'll have to run on substance, something the left has none of at the current moment. just feelings, and we don't care about your feelings.

      I mean, sorry, but he just helped gutting the rights of more than half the country!
      If he had respect for you, he would have listened, discussed, accepted facts which you no-doubtedly have given numerous times.
      But he refused to listen. I mean: "you can vent if you need" sounds demeaning in itself, isn't it? That's not listening, that's a deaf ear.
      So, I'd suggest F-U and stop. For your own sanity. Personally I'd let them come back only if they offer reasonable arguments and once they show "ok, now I get it" and start to show signs of decultivation (?is that a word?) they would be welcome. Under conditions of suspicion and trust that needs to be regained.

    As a Canadian I’m grateful, in a way, for,the result. Now the veil is off and we can all see the real America. More people want lower gas prices and someone who reinforces their negative impulses over decency, democracy and women’s rights.

      The cold irony, is that the president doesn't/can't even control gas prices...
      They don't know how anything actually works, and it made them all the more easier to con.

      @ I won’t lump everyone together but the majority of voters decided this monstrous subhuman was an acceptable candidate. Something is deeply wrong with at least half of your electorate.

      Personally, I think the fact that he's a rapist, a friend of Epstein who was on the Lolita flight logs 7 times, had an English translation of collected Hitler speeches on his nightstand, said he'd deport 20 million people, talks about de-naturalizing ppl, talks about "the enemy from within", and promised to be a dictator if he's president again (among a million other equally as fascist/disgusting things) is a much, much bigger indictment on society...
