Bingo. It’s bleak but believe it or not, talking about it with others who see it too, helps. Thanks.
I’m a parent, so got no choice but to get to work and see what the fuck can be done. I truly did not believe this shit would come to pass; when folks would talk about leaving the country if he was elected, I’d joke that I’d stay and join the underground. Well, guess it’s time to start digging.
No one ever does. Then it happens. And history is there to tell the story and warn us, but apparently the majority of Americans didn't bother paying attention in history class.
For the sake of your kid I hope you live in an area that's willing to push back and maintain a strong public education system and rights for its citizens. And do whatever you can to resist while staying safe.
