I ended up over on Reddit looking for some info about my 3D printer when I saw this in the links. To save you from having to go to that trash heap, I’ve pasted it below. I just wish people would have a more open mind to listen and research to people like us who have ‘woken up.’ My brother was one of these people until a couple of years ago, now he sees just how rediculous it all was, and he’s apologized to me, saying he thought I was crazy, but turned out to be right about everything. Anyway, I thought this was quite interesting because Biden literally did everything he’s afraid of

Trump and his 1% buddies are openly threatening to dismantle the government, denaturalize/deport immigrants, threatening political opponents, and tariff our imports to further inflate our economy until it pops. I’m here getting ready to go to work… it’s just surreal. All the warning signs for a fascist hitting office, and some are fucking cheering! The US, a keystone in stomping out Hitler, just elected Cheeto Hitler and it’s driving me crazy.

A lot of people are saying keep your head down for the term and it’ll blow over, but how can I when Trump has all the tools to “Legally” throw away future elections. When he’s threatening political opponents, any queer person for just existing, legal immigrants, public services that MILLIONS OF AMERICANS NEED TO SURVIVE. The wealthy continue to squeeze the US like an orange peel, either for self interest or foreign influence. It’s baffling…. And I’m still getting ready for work.

A lot of people are tired of the meat grinder the is living in the USA. Hell the Healthcare Shooter is an obvious sign of that. But the spirit of the workers, the day to day laborers, feels broken. We’re all dependent on our jobs and public services to survive, unless you have enough money to “fuck the system”…. And I’m getting ready for work.

I’m just fucking tired. Tired of being scared. Tired of worrying if me and my husband are gonna be arrested and executed in a few years because we’re gay and love each other. Tired of struggling to find higher paying jobs only for cost of groceries, expenses, and medical care to rise. Tired of the media not calling a leopard a leopard. Tired of ignorance and hate being disguised as religious righteousness. Tired of blatant hypocrisy. Tired of people worrying about the cost of eggs, instead of half the government openly welcoming Fascism…. And I’m getting ready for work like so many others.

Why?

Because I have rent due and bills to pay. Just like my neighbor, just like my mom, and just about everyone here.

Edit: to all the comments saying I’m being hysterical. I hope I am. I hope I’m proven wrong. I hope nothing goes wrong the next few years and we move on with the next guy in office. Because I’m terrified if I’m right
