Listen. Under Trump, people are gonna die. Poor people. Disabled people. Gay people. Brown people. Most won't be here, in this country, but a lot will be: children who can't access proper healthcare, disabled people who continue to be forced to survive on the pitiful stipend we give them and nothing more, and Arabs -- and people who just look Arab -- who are gonna get fucking lynched because the sort of people who hate them just for existing are gonna feel validated, are gonna get bolder, aren't gonna be so afraid to act because, hey, enough people support them that Trump is in the White House. We're seeing the violent arm of the global right wing being increasingly emboldened by global politics. And once it becomes acceptable to do that again, well... "Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me."
Hillary? Yeah, some will still die, but they'll die at about the rate they currently do, and things might get marginally better, as opposed to Trump, whose policies will be actively detrimental to the lives of, if not millions, certainly tens of thousands. World events throughout this political season have left me more and more convinced that his dangerous brand of xenophobia and right-wing economics must be stopped here and now.
