I'm someone who's trans, who voted for Harris, who tried to make sure everyone around me understood that Trump was a fascist (it didn't work). I've had way too many Europeans and Canadians try to tell me that I should be taking partial responsibility for Trump. I've had way too many people from Europe and Canada tell me that I should just get over it, grow up, and stop being hysterical about what's going on, while immigrants are being rounded up and sent to totally-not-concentration-camps in Guantanamo Bay. This is called "victim-blaming" and it's a disgusting practice and quite honestly, fuck them too at this point. If they wanna be on the wrong side of history, that's their choice.

Imagine telling the immigrants, Jews, disabled or LGBT during the Holocaust that it was their fault that Hitler was rounding them up and putting them in concentration camps.

What an absolutely disgusting attitude and it shows the true colors of Europe and Canada. The most upsetting part is that I know that once this is all over, they're gonna be sitting there crying crocodile tears while pretending that they knew nothing and nothing could have been done.

Edit: meanwhile I have a couple south american friends who are trying to get me to move to their respective countries because supposedly people in most south american countries don't actually give a shit about your sexuality or gender; it's only the corrupt-ass American puppets who give a fuck. Surprise-surprise. Also, if true, so much for the anglosphere moral superiority complex lmao. I'm very tempted to take a long vacation to visit them and test the waters.
