I could cry. I'm so disappointed in all of us.

Why don't you guys start a revolution against first-past-the-post? Fascism has far less power that way.

Unfortunately only the calm and sane people are upset, and it's harder to whip us into a full revolution.

Better do it now, cause glorious leader Trump will mobilize the military to shut it down quick.
We have Tiananmen Square Massacre at home.

Remember to vote in all local elections. The more sensible people you get into office the more change you create. Look up all the candidates, even for things like education, water treatment, family court judges.

These are all offices that we vote (or not) into office.

When I went to look at who to vote for in the shitty midwest state I am from, (I am an expat. ) sometimes the choice wasn't clear. Some had no party affiliation, but those who seek positions of power often move on to other positions of power. Starting at the bottom we must vote in good people.

So I looked up their campaign websites or facebook pages, and made my choice from there. Do I want the girl with little background in the subject who has republican affiliations supporting her campaign for the office?

Or maybe the guy who runs free name change clinics for people who need it and works at the local food bank.

The choice was clear to me.

I am sorry fellow Americans. This was an outcome I had greatly feared.

Don't give up.
