      I’m trans in a red state. I am not safe.

      I just recognize that the US is a blight and must be destroyed, and that one candidate is more likely to result in the US’s defeat.

      That’s more of a silver lining, though.

        if you live in an unsafe country, its maybe better for you to flee before it gets even worse.

            we already know what happens to those in the center. poor ones, poor in their mind, poor in their heart, poor in their outcome.

              To quote Mao:

              When we discuss the terms ‘front’ and ‘rear’ it must be remembered, that while guerrillas do have bases, their primary field of activity is in the enemy’s rear areas. They themselves have no rear.

              The guerilla must move among people as a fish swims in the sea. While you say we only face poor outcomes, I see this as a strategic opportunity. I’m in the enemy’s rear, in the heart of its operations. Right where I need to be.
