For starters...
How is affirmative action a right, and how can Donald Trump repeal it?

We are going to see our gains eroded,all because some white voters thought their precious resources were being diverted to minorities.

Hey minorities,you do not deserve to live and be treated like a human,that is only for white American men.
Pathatic

Bush had Powell and Rice in big time positions. I bet Trump ends up with an all white cabinet.
I like white cabinets. Preferably with shaker doors.

Jersey, do you know what's so ironic? When I was heading home, Where is the Love by the Black Eyed Peas came on the radio today. I mean I don't know if the DJ planned that but what the heck?

I don't believe in synthetic chemicals. If I did I would have taken them long ago.

Counseling? Psh...what a joke. A group would be fine if it fixed things but I don't benefit from just talking.

My place is under a bridge and away from neurotypicals. I figured that out years ago but I really see it now.

I'd be happy to be the same but I gotta make sure I'm not the cheese that stands alone. If I'm going to fight then I want enough people backing me.

If he has a good heart he has a really bad way of showing it. His eyes even show hatred in them to me.

Btw illegal immigrants are the wrong answer. By worrying about them you hurt other groups that didn't do anything wrong. If Hilary was really that bad (which you don't know that it's all hearsay) then you should have banned together and voted for another party.

After one of my looks-nothing-like-a-japanese relative being put in internment camp years ago, nothing scares me now.

No one will lose their rights. Just relax already. Geez.

I already have though and it could easily just get worse.
Bigotry has always been powerful in my experience.

We're not. I mean on the few times I've actually tried to be a sociable person IRL I wonder why I bother because they don't understand. Sometimes it starts out in childhood even..because kids made fun of me in 5th grade and I'm not saying the average American doesn't experience this too but it happens a lot more with outsiders. If you fit any abnormality, whether it be race (which has gotten better, at least with African Americans but I know there are still racists out there) brain function..what have you you are easily judged. Sometimes not always to your face but behind your back.

But sometimes we do need special treatment. We need a little help esp us disabled. You guys can function in this world a lot easier. You may struggle but you generally get through it. For example a lot of people find a way to lie into their job to adapt but I can't do that at all. I may have a neurotypical side because I'm in the middle but the other part of my brain takes over with that.
You guys don't understand how hard it is to be in a world driven by people who you can't identify with. You talk to many autistics for example...many of them actually love socializing but they can't figure you out. I on the other hand kinda bask in my outsiderness but that doesn't mean I want to be a loser who burdens everyone.
I really wish people would understand this. I would most likely be a lot more successful if people understood and cared years ago that I can be slow with crucial things. In fact when I was voting (although I know part of it was stress that helped me out of it it only increased it but I get like this anyway), I got to the scanning machine and I wasn't doing it right to the point the woman asked me if I was a first time voter and I have voted every year. I can think of so many instances where most people would be thinking how the heck could you do that. It's like I have a talent for screwing up.

I wish I was joking/being insincere. I wanted to get the heck out of the store today because as I was sitting there I had to fight not to cry in front of the employee because I hate crying in front of people.
I also wish my fears were bogus but in the midst of this election year an eviction notice came out.

Jerseygal just seems to be fed up like me. It's impossible to care about the world when the world doesn't care about you. To quote Eminem I've been spit up chewed out and booed off stage (stage is a metaphor here obviously)...far too many times.
It doesn't mean she doesn't care about anyone else. She just may just be limiting her caring to people who deserve it..people who didn't do anything wrong.


I probably went off on a tangent but see this is just another reason I have needed more help than I've been getting.

Start taking away civil rights and you WILL see an uprising.




A whitelash as Van Jones called it. His conversation with Jeffrey Lord was very moving as he tried to explain how people of color or anyone other than a straight, white male felt last night. I could tell that EVEN Lord was moved by his words. Now that is saying something.




Yes. There is little good to find in all this. Privatizing Medicare, trying again to overturn Obamacare and replace it with (they have NO idea); the climate change agreement overturned, etc.


George Wallace won.




Economists say - we could very well be worse off as people have no insurance. One thing - the Republicans have NO idea how to repeal it and they have no plan to replace it.


I feel for folks who have pre-existing conditions and those who will lose their healthcare.


No sweat off you back, eh?




Sweet Weeping Jesus. Why didn't someone let us in on that secret? We just elected an orange fascist.




Then you have not spoken with a trump rally audience.




We will. We cannot let the rights of our friends and family be overturned.



That is a LIE; he never, ever said that. The reich wing no longer can tell between the truth and a lie. Fools.


And YES. I do like my job and my neighborhood.





Who? Byrd? He renounced the KKK 50 years ago with tears in his eyes. David Duke just TODAY - congratulated Donald on his win. Donald has emboldened him - and others like him.




Tell it to Melania, dear. I hope we put up one of her nude photos in the WH.




Absolutely. I hate the right wing and the hate they stand for. Today, they elected HATE to office. He will be the most despised President in our history.


Meanwhile the stock markets are tanking.


Enjoy your victory fascists. You will soon be regretting your decision.
You just type nonsense. Paragraph after paragraph. You are a good example as to why the Left got spanked yesterday.

Being fed up doesn't give someone the right to be completely selfish or judge and treat others poorly, sorry.

But it's okay for Trump supporters to be selfish or judge.
