per Decision Desk, it looks like trump won. I'm starting to see a few outlets like NBC call Pennsylvania for trump, too.

as a trans woman, i'm fucking terrified.

yeah, if you voted for trump this election, after everything over the last ~9 years, you're fucking evil. straight up evil. lots of people, worldwide, are going to suffer because of this as the world falls deeper under the influence of fascism. take care of yourself, take care of your loved ones, form communities, and be prepared to fight for your lives. we're going to need each other if we're going to to make it through this

I would like to think blue States will put up a fight. But I guess it depends on project 2025 and how they react to that.

If they let it happen, then idk I guess that's that.

    They will put up a fight. They will fight like Democratic state senators in Oklahoma. They will fight like the Weiße Rose. And then they will lose.

    They can't fight federal law, and they can't fight against an uncaring, sociopathic GOP majority in Congress.

    I mean, when federal law has been manipulated and tampered with, I think the question becomes, will people allow it to happen, or will they resist?

    And at that point, I have no idea. You would be looking at mass protests and / or civil war at that point. They're either going to have to be ready to literally fight for their rights or just give up I guess. If there's no way to fight it "legally" (I use this in quotations because the GOP seems to want to change the rules so nobody can oppose them), then I suppose those are the only other two options.
