Unless you are a wealthy, able-bodied, cisgender, heterosexual, conservative white man, voting GOP/Trump means:
-You benefit from proximity to one
-You wish to be one
-You want to have their advantages & to hell w/everyone else

When #ElectionResults2020 are announced, know there are multiple fights still ahead. White supremacy, misogyny, capitalism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, ageism: won’t disappear, regardless of White House occupant for next 4yrs. How I will fight 👇🏽feministgiant.substack.com/p/essay-become…
My concern if Trump won: more fascism, further unleashed by the I-Don’t-Give-A-Fuck of a victorious incumbent
My concern if Trump lost:
- fascism unleashed by a defeated incumbent and his supporters.
- what to do with his base which will not overnight stop being utter shits

I used to watch Trump rallies with @rerutled, regularly. Not because we’re gluttons for punishment nor just to laugh at Trump’s dancing, but to hear what he told them and hear how much they loved it.
That is not going anywhere. That too is America.

Also: I am no fan of Joe Biden nor of so much that the Democratic Party represents. I am way to the left.
So while of course I want Trump gone, I know much of what brought him will remain and that much of what brought him is this country and not just the GOP.

Too many able-bodied wealthy cis white Americans develop amnesia as soon as elections are over.
Black & people of colour who also develop that amnesia do so because they either have the advantages of ☝🏽white Americans or wish they did.
Those of us who want liberation, remember.

Our fight for liberation is daily and global.
And #Election2020 is a bucket of cold water that the options that electoral politics in the US offer are bankrupt.
e.g. So much effort expended on the choice between one white man in his 70s vs another white man in his 70s

My concern if Biden won:
- nonsense white liberal fuckery about civility and unity
- embrace across the aisle of fascist enablers

- white liberals who cried “This isn’t my country” for four years, celebrate “My America is back!” and go on amnesia overdrive
