My fellow Americans -
What in the fuck were you thinking? Are we really going back to the days when it's okay to grope women? To mock minorities? To claim that someone isn't American because of where their parents or grandparents were born - no matter where they were born themselves?
Do we not care about civil rights?
Do we not care about standing by our promises?
Say goodbye to The Voter Rights Act of 1965, what provisions remain, let alone any chance of replacing the ones the Supreme Court struck down. Say goodbye to the ACA. Say goodbye to the Federal Minimum Wage. Say goodbye to any attempt for a national policy for carbon emissions. Say goodbye to Net Neutrality. Say goodbye to Dodd-Frank, any of its provisions. Say goodbye to civil rights for all. Say goodbye to Abortion Rights. Say goodbye to the VA. Say Hello to more for-profit prisons. Say Hello to an expanded School to Prison Pipeline.
Say Hello to newer and more prevalent STDs as more and more clinics get shut down. Say Hello to a new Jim Crow era. Say Hello to more for-profit prisons. Say Hello to an expanded School to Prison Pipeline. Say Hello to faith tests for citizenship. Say Hello to even more insane ID requirements that still won't let people of color vote.
And especially to those nominally Christian assholes who voted for The Hairpiece: You have just made a deal with the devil. You have made it clear that theocracy is all that matters to you, not mercy, not justice, not liberty, nor any other virtue. I no longer am going to pretend you're not a font of never-ending hate, out to destroy everything and everyone I care about.
