Im just a terrible person. I walk wrong. I talk wrong. I breathe wrong. I exist wrong and everyone around me makes sure I know it. I don't think suicide is a choice that is worth making but I do eagerly await the sweet release of death sometimes. I just needed to vent and you all get my sadness right now.

Politics is having differences of opinions on how to go about fixing your country. Trump isn't politics, he's a racist, fascist bigot. If you guys want politics you can come together and we can get rid of this threat to democracy together, so we can get back to politics. But a guy saying my race is garbage, sub human and deserves to be exterminated is not politics, it's bigotry.
