Don't give up.
11 months ago
everyone You've no doubt awoken to the dumbest news you could have. The most disheartening feeling that the entire country is against you. The fear that your life is about to turn upside down because some people can't vote for a women, can't vote for lgbtq rights, can't accept abortion, and would throw us all away for the promise of cheaper eggs.
I'm sorry you woke up to such a horrible thing.
It's not over.
We are here. We are always going to be here.
They've thrown worse at us, and we are going to keep our arms locked and take everything they throw at us. They can try to break us all they want but they will fail.
Everyone who voted for this will learn quickly that they are about to be betrayed. Do not give them sympathy. Teach them not to be so blind, and give them the education they never got to see through the obvious lies.
We will have 4 years to defend ourselves, as we always have, and just as many to spread the information about what people never wanted to hear. We can continue to lift each other up. We can continue to fight.
Do not give up. Take a few days to grieve, do not give in to despair. Focus that anger and sadness and everything else into your armor.
It's time to fight once more.

The grieving process has started. All one can do is just take a deep breath and walk away. Take some time off social platforms and restrain one's self from watching the news or reading the paper. Just for a while and then come back again when one feels right.
Watching the news, reading anything to do with Trump's win will just entice the anger many feel. It's what he and his supporters want. They want to be in the limelight as much as possible, in order to torment and break our spirits.
Stay strong and keep faith. For as Rodger Walters of Pink Floyd once said: Together we stand, divided we fall.
ie., the government that just came into power is the one that wants me to hurry up and off myself just as my dad wanted me to.
I don't know how good you think the economy is about to become under Trump but you wont be happy, im sorry to say.
But please, enjoy your $.20 cheaper eggs.
Maybe it's time to reconsider tactics and methods if they haven't been capable to prevent eight years of President Trump.
My only assumption is that everyone is freaking out and scared, but that's not an excuse. You need to be treated fairly and be shown the same love as the rest.
Those people were tolerant and progressive and still they have had to see the town where they were born and grew up becoming a complete shithole and witnessing politicians of the so-called "democracy" have been screwing the country for decades with corruption and austerity. Some of them had to live under Franco's regime and I know one who is a grandchildren of one victim of the dictatorship. Imagine their reaction after realizing that all the fights and sacrifices were done for nothing.
I'm not telling you to sympathize with them, I just request you not to insult them. You have no idea how hard it is for them.
