You know, I was trying to figure out how I feel about the results because like, I knew no matter which it would be, it wasn't going to be a big difference to me (both genocidal imperialists, ya know). But like, I think what I figured out is I have some secondhand anxiety about it? Like I have some anxiety about how other people are going to react to it, because people have been hyped up to such a degree to believe it's a world-ending scenario.

While not a world ending scenario, it's incredibly uncomfortable to have a president that knowingly hates my people for having the wrong skin color and would be perfectly okay with genociding us.

The only difference is optics. Liberals think it, fascists say it.

I agree, it just sucks to hear it openly
