If yousdon't have a plan B for Trump winning or after the election in general, I'd call you the defeatist, sorry.
That's all my criticism: Don't have too much faith in electoralism and have a plan B.
Ok so what's the plan b?
Are you telling me you don't have a plan how to defend minorities and women's health if Trump wins?
I can do what I can but a lot is out of my control. I can't change laws or help people far away. Except of course by voting and donating, but I only have so much money. I'd rather prevent the possible harm to people as much as possible, rather than have to try to stop things after they've gone bad. And in terms of prevention, I don't have a plan b.
Join a mutual aid and community defense group. Help your community. Don't depend on lawmakers and judges. They've proven time and time again they're not on yopr side.
Are you implying you'll live abroad?
If so (I await your confirmation) that's a very privileged take.
No, I'm implying that progressives should start to take politics into their own hands and don't rely on what's happening in washington.
