YT people on this post talking will be fine either way. WE are in jeopardy if this goes sideways.

Yet, they overwhelmingly voted for Trump last time.

Tell that to me, a white trans man. I’m most certainly not okay if trump wins

No, they’re not. If they wanted to hide, they could. Black folks, except for ethically ambiguous and passing bi-/multi-racial folks, are the most visible target. It’ll take a long time before it drills down to them. And given the way white women have voted, they’re not about to undead themselves. Certainly not for us.

Sorry, not sorry, but you blend in a helluva lot more than black folks. TF? Black folks don’t have a dead name. We’re the biggest, most visible target. For all intents and purposes, you could hide if no one outed you. We cannot.

We’re not in the same boat. We’re not even in the same ocean.

Exactly!! 

We’re not exactly “in this together.” Not to the same extent by a long shot. If Trumpers have their way, it could be back in the fields for black folks, and not enough white folks are willing to stand on business to stop it.

Same storm, not the same boat.

Eh, if it makes you feel any better we are all equally fucked, regardless of outcome.

There has never been equal fucking since the colonizers took their first shit on this continent.
