Grief is natural, but we cannot give up the fight. Tens of millions did not vote for this. If they want to take away rights, make every one a fight
Everything we fight is time they cannot spend moving on to the next thing. Drag every fight out even if it’s something seemingly minor. Give them no ground
The more resistance they see, the weaker they become
Tens of millions intentionally didn’t vote at all, knowing full well this was going to happen. At this point, I don’t want to help them when the shit hits the fan. This is what they wanted.
Of course those affected turned out. We always do. We’re often getting tear-gassed when 98% of people aren’t even aware a demonstration is happening.
The whole problem is a great many people can’t believe there’s an issue until it affects them, personally.
That’s the heart of it all. If this author had ideas on how to fix that, we’re all ears. Not sarcasm – we’ve been working on that for a very long time.

Many of groups most likely to be affected did overwhelmingly vote. For instance, queer people voted even more for Harris in 2024 than they did for Biden in 2020. They didn’t want this, and we now need to stand up for them
Isn’t this how it always is, though?

Yeah, I went through all of this in 2016 and now here we are back a freaking gain. America deserves it this time.
