I am angry

A place for angry people to come and be angry about things without discrimination.

Also, a place for non-angry people to come and read and comment on angry people's posts. Don't be dismissive to ragers because I am notoriously generous with the banhammer.

Note: I say Angry People, not bigoted people. Being angry at people for how they are born will get you blocked with an astounding quickness.

Lastly: NO MEMES! USE YOUR WORDS! (Some exemptions may apply)

So me and my niece are part of an outgroup that is currently being targeted by the hard right, and my sister and I both legitimately fear for the safety of our family.

With the news Biden is dropping out, we are leaving the country.

To be clear: I LIKE Harris, I will be voting for Harris and whoever else is on the blue side of the ballot. But after that we are all getting on a plane because I think regardless of who wins this election, this country will go full concentration-camp fascist within 4 years.

The apathy that I see in my fellow citizens about all of the horrific things surrounding that fucking orange abomination tells me this country WANTS fascism and this time the GOP picked a narcissistic idiot, then next time they won't make that mistake.

So we're packing most of our stuff and shipping it off tomorrow to relatives, voting early, and staying in a sane country for at least a few years.

I hate that I have to do this, I hate that it is even a conceivable issue but some trumpfucker at a protest broke my nieces hand because of who she is and I don't think it's safe to be in a place where that becomes normalized.

People don't really give as much of a fuck about you as you may think they do. And those republicans care even less if you dont live in the US. Fwiw I don't think you’re going anywhere. Lemmy is full of armchair expats.

Why does this make you so angry? Just let them be. You just proved their point more if anything especially if your in the u.s.

Did you not read the part where I told you a shitbag broke my niece's hand?

I don't care what you think, this country WILL NOT be safe under republicunt rule for people like us. It already isn't.
