Quote from takeva
I haven't seen any real facts about people getting attacked by real trump supporters.
Do you think that high schoolers writing hate graffiti supporting Trump on school walls, or real people denied services because of the color of their skin isn't an attack? Even if you say these things have been done before or that there are always incidents like this, I don't think you can say that the amount of incidents haven't increased because of Trump winning. Being able to laugh, and being excited, at the fact that people's lives are going to be a lot harder because of Trump's open racism and misogyny is privilege; being a person of color doesn't mean you're not privileged. I'm a poc first gen American and I know I am in a lot of ways.
And if you think Trump won't be able to do anything, just think about his cabinet. He'll be picking those people and those are not people you want head of the DOJ or anything else.
Also you don't know that none of this would have happened if Bernie had been the nominee, you only believe and hope so. Yeah, there were polls, put look at how wrong they were about Clinton and Trump. Saying that is just another way of saying I was right and you were wrong so ha ha. Btw, my state and my vote, went to Sanders in the primaries and Clinton in the gen. election.
TL;DR. Yeah, I'm not really #notmypresident, because well, he is since I'm American, he just doesn't represent any of my values at all. So I went with protest, secede, revolt, because I believe in doing something about the future of this country, if not specifically anything about Trump 'cause I can't. So not really protesting, seceding, or revolting, but definitely getting more involved with community and my state Democratic party. Looking towards 2018 even though that's probably gonna be rough too.
