i really feel you. it’s hard to sort the legitimate Hillary criticism from the misogynistic garbage. i volunteered for Bernie’s campaign but I don’t think Clinton is as horrible as most people in my tumblr circle believe. i don’t think she’ll be a revolutionary president but i trust her to do a decent job.

Exactly. As I said, I split my vote, I was super into Bernie for a bit, but it was actually once the really gross anti-Hillary stuff started to pick up that I was like… nnnnnnnnn… o. 

We need all kinds of change but let’s be real here, the office of President is not where that kind of change has ever really come from. I am still hopeful that people will be galvanized to vote down the ticket. Maybe the messy and horrible implosion of the Republican party will allow meaningful change to happen in that direction instead. I don’t know. Shit has to change but Trump is not the way to change it.

I hate literally everything political I’ve read this entire election season. I am old enough that I had already been voting before W came into office and some of the most vivid memories of my life are the sickening horror of him actually getting elected. We thought he was a joke. And all sorts of centrist bros condescended to me and were like get over yourself it won’t be that bad.

Guess fucking what. It was that bad. Tens of thousands of people have died. There’s-no-real-difference-between-candidates my hairy asshole.

When the Left splits its vote, the Right brings about the fucking apocalypse. I am not fucking around. I am shitting myself.
