Don’t get me wrong, I’m pissed at the people who voted against themselves. The first time we could give them the benefit of the doubt that they didn’t know what was coming. Now they do. Their jealousy, pride, narcissism, sexism and racism took us all down. This is the R’s (that includes Russia), the trump voters and the media’s fault. No one else’s.
The billionaires and Russia won. We’re sorry Ukraine, Taiwan and any other country we’re going to abandon. We all understand why you’re super pissed, we are too.
Here are the 5 stages of grief for the US and how we’re not great anymore. How we’re actually racist, sexist POS:
Denial
Anger
Bargaining
Depression
Acceptance
I personally am at acceptance. No liberal tears here. I hope the least amount of people get killed, raped, separated from their families and tortured. I don’t have a lot of hope on that front. I’ll help where I can.
If you voted for him, I just don’t give a shit about you anymore. Nada. Good luck.
As someone who’s lived slightly more years than number of deaths of friends, loved ones, and relatives on both ends of the generational spectrum, I’d never agreed with the “order” of that metric (which is, thankfully, becoming recognized as entirely unhelpful at best).
Salient point, before I’m too stoned to convey it: seek your joy, and hunt/craft/attain it. Our collective ability to uplift each other begins with self-care, and we owe it to each other as much as to our own selves. 💜✊🏼🖖🏽
Thank you and all others in this thread. If nothing else, leaving Reddit helped me find a community of compassion that isn’t designed around continuous engagement.
We fight on.

Said stages are not a ladder/linear progression, FWIW.
That’s a good point, you jump around and combine. Sometimes within an hour. I think I’m at acceptance full on though.
