LGBTQ+ crisis hotlines ‘fear we will lose children to suicide’ after post-election spike in calls
(www.thepinknews.com)
After a coworker showed me some reaction videos of lgbtq+ folks and other minorities where they were screaming, crying and all in all scared for their lives while said coworker was shedding tears of enjoyment, schadenfreude and utter laughter, I have to think about Trump voters smiling weirdly while they read headlines like that. It feels like Pandora's Box has been opened. (context: post election)
One of the people was smashing their head against a wall repeatedly, some were crying while pouring their heart out (acoustically not understandable) and when a black woman was on screen the coworker was like "SHE THINKS SHE'LL BE A SLAVE L-M-F-A-O".
Even I as a supporter get bullied. I don't even dare to think about the consequences for most minorities, it's gonna be hideous what's to come. It's kinda fun though listing trumps and musks flaws and idiotic choices and whatnot for my coworkers. I'm doing what I can, it's hard not to empower or enable them, though, since their minds work oh so differently from humane people.
