    I’ve made peace with either result. I’m definitely wanting for one side to win and I’ve already done my part by voting early… in a Red district in a Red state, so my vote is essentially meaningless anyways, though there’s a local gerrymandering issue that hopefully gets through that can help. Otherwise, whatever happens, happens. As hard as it is to see positives, I’ve tried to think about what opportunities might be available should the unthinkable happen, there’s some potential upsides for me personally, so there’s that. The rest of the world will go to hell in a handbasket and we’re all fucked, but there’s the still the potential to find some personal benefit from it.

      What are the upsides, if you don’t mind me asking? I’m having trouble finding silver linings here.

        They’re probably a white, male landowner.
