Hi everyone,
As most of you know, Donald Trump has been called as the next President of the United States of America. Moreover, his party (the Republicans) have won both the House and the Senate.
A lot of us are feeling upset, scared, and maybe a little bit doomed. And all those feelings are perfectly reasonable: feel them, let it hurt, and then let them go.
Because we are going to be proven right, and we need our best fighters ready:
My teacher once described American democracy as a pendulum. When we swing left, within a few years, there’s a swing to the right and vice versa.
After T. Wilson, there was Coolidge. After JFK there was Lyndon. After Obama there was Trump.
BUT, over the last century, the pendulum has CONSISTENTLY shifted more to the left than it has to the right. Women’s Right to Vote has stayed long after Wilson. The Civil Rights Act persisted through even Reagan’s presidency. And, Gay Marriage has persisted through Trump.
History is going to make us win.
There are always going to be those who resist change because they’re stubborn. I don’t blame em; we’re Americans. Stubborn is part of our nature. But the desire to change will prove them wrong as time trudges forward.
So, today, I ask you to feel the pain of today and let it strengthen your will for tomorrow. Because we have a battle to win :)

trump supposedly getting shot and the guy missing it just feels like bolsonaro's "stabbing" during 2018. both of these guys are fascists, btw! there's some stuff pointing to bolsonaro having staged the stabbing, and then he somehow won brazil's elections. be VERY suspicious of what happened there.

Using "Legalize" as a term to cover up the theft of people's homes and livelihoods is expected at this point from the NYT. The "free" press is complicit in the manufacturing of consent to not only destroy Gaza, but to also annex the West Bank. Free Palestine.
