But… Do you want to? I don’t feel like this is a country I want to contribute to anymore. I’m not going to leave (because that’s very impractical) and I’ll still support myself, but the goodwill I had towards my fellow Americans is very much diminished.
It’s easy for me to say that because I could leave if I needed to. The situation is very different for the people who can’t. Maybe I should have more concern for them than I do right now, but instead I just keep thinking how one upside of Trump winning the popular vote is that whatever happens, most Americans will deserve it.
I hear you for sure, but keep in mind “all americans” is still barely a plurality of registered voters who voted so far as we know.
Sure, that number goes up the more cynical one is. Which. Yeah. But still.
Plenty of good people, kids, women who are married to assholes and so on need to have support because they didn’t ask for this and also it’s very wrong.
