I am honestly ready for all the torture Trump will give us. Let people remember what a Trump presidency was like. We are completely at his mercy, and I hope that the GOP gets the karma they deserve for supporting the not-so-figurative anti-Christ.

First time I've ever been ashamed to be American

We don't know their age or experience. Unfortunately, there's going to be plenty of opportunities to catch up.

It also makes sense from the perspective that this time, the fascist might even win the popular vote. I always had that to fall back on at least.

Coming from a 3rd world country? You ain't seen nothing yet. Trump will catch us all up to speed on how it's going.

"First time?" meme

I'm sure not. I've voted against the Republicans every fucking time, but I'm still a prime target for their future concentration camps.

It's so reassuring to see people ready to just throw their arms up and watch innocent people have their rights stripped and their lives brutally ended.

I'm ashamed to be sharing the same solar system with half the voters in your country.

Schadenfreude is a helluva drug...

What, all the other absolutely absurd U.S. atrocities, at home and abroad, didn’t do it for you? Man I’m ashamed just to be your neighbour and for having our own dipshit Conservative politicians that like to cosplay as Republicans.

Good Lord, i'm not sure you understand my position at all. I immigrated to the U.S. from a 3rd world country. You have no idea how privileged the USA is. My family and I were at the bottom 50% of the FPL. Because of the graciousness of the federal government's grants, I was able to get through college, work in research, and attend medical school. None of that exists where i come from. We are pissing the blessing of a working democratic system away in favor of turning it into yet another authoritarian camp.

Well of course I didn’t understand that you’re an immigrant, you never told me. Doesn’t much change my point but you can’t very well be upset because I didn’t know something I couldn’r possibly have known.

The U.S. is the shittest developed country. People flock to it because it’s well know and sells all kinds of shit but it historically engages in some the most heinous shit it can get away and doesn’t even have the stones to admit it. There are many developing countries which they have an active hand in destabalizing, maybe even where you’re from!

The U.S. tries really hard to sell itself as the leader of the free world but most of what it actually leads on in thay sphere is racist incarceration, illiteracy, and gun deaths.

I’m glad it’s worked out for you, we take what we can get, but the things that country has done can’t be ignored because you managed to get through it.
