Okay. Shitposting about the Republican win over. Let's have some real talk.
That fear and anger you're feeling right now? You're not wrong. This is an angering time. And a scary time. But that fear and anger? That's energy. That power. That fight or flee feeling from millions of years evolution is there for a reason. It's saying do something or get out of Dodge."
I encourage you to USE that energy to do something. Don't let it pass. Be angry. Stay angry. AND GET INVOLVED. Start with your community. Use that anger to join a local non-profit that will make things better. Get involved with your local government, in any way you can. The way out of this starts in your neighborhood. Make your change in any way you can.
Think you can't do it? I didn't think I could. I had no money, and no job. And I did it. And the change we made was good.
But there's also flee. And that's also understandable. Sometimes you've got to leave an untenable situation. Get started. Get your passports renewed. I'd highly suggest you do that NOW, so it's porcessed before January 20th. Talk with your friends and family in safer states. See who can take you in, where you can get or create a safety net. Research the resources where you think you'd be safe. They can help.
If you're scared, if you're angry, you have every right to be. Use that energy while you have it. Make the world around you better. Get to a better world if you can.
If we stick together, we can make it through the next four years on a local level. And if not, we can find a place to survive. Because we must survive. And we must make this a better place.
Good luck. I have faith in you.
