    I hope you don’t come to regret this, I really do. I’m not from the US but I’m afraid of the consequences this election will have on the whole world.

      Why would I regret it? Fascism didn’t just pop up in 2015 when trump announced he was running, fascism has been here since we genocided the natives in our push for westward expansion. Hitler loved our history and wanted to learn from us!

      As a visibly queer person I’ve experienced the “fascism” liberals are freaking the fuck out about since I was a child under every single administration.

        I think you’d regret it if it gets worse. It’s not because fascism has always been there that it can’t get worse … As fucked up as it is, and I’m sorry to say this; but if the non-queer liberals start experiencing what you’ve experienced your whole life, I would bet big that queer people are gonna have a much tougher time.
