I am going to be very disoriented, myself. I’m gonna have to start going around just talking with some people who’re probably going to be worried as hell. Especially if they’re women, LGBTQ, hard working laborers .etc who know and feel like their worlds are going to be broken into pieces.

While I won’t immediately leave the country, I’ll just be weighing in my options going into next year about where I could possibly go. I’ll probably be avoiding social media except for my circle of friends to avoid all of the celebration of the maga crowd. Probably will go on auto-pilot for a while, muting the world and having extreme contempt for America.

      I think since he’s threatened anyone who votes for him, we all now are eligible for political asylum.

        Quick reminder that anyone who had ancestors that got their german citizien ship removed by the nazis has the right to reclaim it.

        I think you mean against him, but regardless I think that asylum claim would be an uphill battle in many countries

      It’s not something anyone can just do. America’s borders are more open than a lot of countries’. You have to apply, and it can be a multi-year process even if you do get accepted. It can cost money too.
