Feeling completely gutted and hopeless. Not sure what I’m supposed to do. Fearful for my friends and family.

    First of all, it’s not your fault. There already is a lot of people on Lemmy trying to blame ourselves for what happened while the R’s are legally cheating every which way you turn. We probably don’t even know the half of it. It’s not our fault, the end. If you voted for Harris, you did well.

    Also, stop looking at the big picture and take care of your family and friends while sticking together. Us being in distress is good for them to make democracy end that much easier. Take care of yourself and family, the government will not. I mean it, support each other.

    If people are being shitty and wanting us to fight inwards, ignore it, downvote it, and move on. Don’t fall for the trap.

    Accept that half of our voting population doesn’t care about anyone but themselves. Those people, just ignore them. Let them whine and cry when they get shit on too. Keep all of that energy for yourself and the people who you need to support and protect.

    You’re going to have to consider this a hostile takeover from the far-right, white nationalists, *billionaires, Russia and China. Buckle up.
