You guys are acting like Trump is going to be driving around in a tank gunning down people that didn’t vote for him.
By and large your life will not change much day-to-day. The worst thing you can do is give energy to something you cannot control. You voted and it doesn’t work out. Now you focus on your daily happiness and don’t try to let the big picture drag you down. There not much you can do about it anyway. May as well invest that energy into having something positive instead of dread.
I think the bigger problem are the people from within. We have some very bad people. We have some sick people, radical-left lunatics. And I think… and it should be very easily handled by, if necessary, by National Guard or if really necessary by the military, because they can’t let that happen. – Trump 2024
If you can make actionable change by all means spend that energy. But letting something you cannot do anything about ruin your daily life is just stupid.
You cant change what the Trump administration is going to do by crying about it on the Internet. You CAN choose how you want to spend that energy every day though. Spend it on the little things that make your life and others better. Put it towards charitable work or combatting things going wrong locally. Don’t just wallow in sadness on the Internet daily.
son, you must have fallen down and hit your head, and missed the last go around from 2016 to 2020 when over One Million Fucking Americans died, bad, from a sandbagged and purposefully inept Trump led Federal Global Pandemic response, that saw The United States post higher numbers per capita of infections, hospitalizations, and death that any other countries in the world besides Russia, North Korea, and China. You aren’t confusing any of the rest of us who lived through that horrorshow, and know he’s going to make those numbers seem insignificant this time around. Go away. You’re a trash troll.
But it’s ok because he selected companies run by his chronies to handle distribution, netting them billions of dollars in government awards. Surely we won’t see that this time around?!
What does obsessing over it every day and complaining on the Internet constantly do though? It not like Trump and his goons are gonna see all the comments y’all are making and suddenly change their minds. If there is something tangible you can do to make change absolutely do it, but letting it ruin your daily life is just letting them win.
Y’all do whatever you want. Your choice how you spend your energy.
One of the most impactful forms of activism is education. Talking about issues, putting effort towards things that we might not necessarily be able to directly impact, is how we garner new ideas from other perspectives.
I am worried some medicine will be scarce; which can easily happen if there are enough trade disputes and tariffs.
That will cause more suffering than anything else.
And it’s easy to put a lot more stress on health care providers by having bad people run the major agencies. Between the lack of medical supplies and a war on vaccines, and health care bring stressed : there would be millions of preventable deaths over years
As someone who belongs to several minority and marginalized groups and relies on benefits and support to be able to live, yes my life will change day to day. You’re either very self centered and feeling like you’re part of the “in group” or just uninformed. It’s not unreasonable to think that my life could be totally upended for reasons completely out of my control by the end of the year. This is all completely ignoring the shift in the culture and the possibility of my blue state going red. Things are about to get bad for many people, very fast.
Presidents always choose people to die. He’s been a sick about disaster aid to states that didn’t vote for him and he’s made it very clear he’s going to be worse this time around. He and his morally decaying party have made it clear they’re okay with women dying instead of allowing them necessary healthcare. They’re number on priority is targeting the trans community. His cabinet is a bunch of exorbitantly rich people and it’s primed to give ore money to billionaires. His secretary of defense is a psychopath, and they’ve pro-Israel and anti-Ukraine. RFK wants to get rid of vaccines which could kill or seriously maim hundreds of thousands maybe more. I could probably go on but I’ll let you raise any point other than downplaying people’s legitimate fears.
Because telling people, many of whom are going to suffer thanks to the incoming administration, ‘oh, don’t worry your pretty little heads about that’ is kinda stupid?
No loans, but still absolute dread. I suspect a lot of people are going to die preventably in the next 4-12 years.

This ideology is like “First they came for ____, and I did not speak out because I was not ____” without realizing why that’s bad

Pretty sure that’s an exaggeration. I get your point, but I don’t think we were behind Brazil on how we handled it.

You’re such an odd specimen.
Yeah I’m not worried about my life. I’m cis, white, earning, married.
I’m worried about other people who are the scapegoats of the incoming admin

If your worry doesn’t result in action then it’s just doing you harm.

I can’t believe you’re getting shit for effectively the Serenity Prayer.

Yeah idk. The mindset and mental health of the majority of this site are quite concerning to me. it is what it is I suppose.
