How are people ok with this? (self.EnoughTrumpSpam)

quickthrowaway234713 が 投稿

Yes I am using a throwaway account because I am scared. I am a muslim man now with a president-elect who has gained power on a platform of support of white supremacy and islamaphobia.

The first day I was distraught and sullen. Today I am angry at the fact that half of America is ok with such hatred as long as they get a tax cut. I am angry at people telling me to give him a chance. I will not give the opportunity for a snake to bite. I don't know how people rationalize that it's ok other than maybe a coping mechanism? Or probably because they are not one of the many minority groups which he targeted throughout the campaign.

Please help me calm down. I can not go into work lashing out at every white man who makes comments about how nice he's being.

As a bonus, they won't be getting that tax cut they were hoping for. They're literally just filled with hate.

Some people were protesting last night. And they are trying all kinds of random petitions today. Many are not OK with this. Also the voter turn out is 55%, just told by another redditor in my feed, so that means only about 25% are supportive of this, another slightly larger 25% are not ok with this, the rest 50% is unknown. Dont forget there are also millions of illegal aliens and resident aliens who live and work around you but have no say in this matter.

Democracy sucks. I'm sorry. It really sucks sometimes.

Hopefully our checks and balances will be enough to protect your rights.

    I wish I could comfort you but I can't. Islamophobia has been legitimized and turned into official government policy.

    The best possible case is if Trump does what Canadian Conservatives under Harper did in 2013-2014, when they made laws banning beheadings and multiple marriages as a petty gesture against their phantom imagination of what Islam must be like, even though obviously both those things are already illegal. In that case no one is affected and fools will be sated with pure nothingness. (Canada still has a healthy and vibrant Muslim community.)

    Sadly, Islamophobia has been prevalent in the west for 10+ years. Coward politicians stoke tribal fears to preserve their golden toilet seats. The silver lining is that there's hope the left rejects it soundly from now on, whereas before I've seen plenty of western leftists being Islamophobic as well (think France).
