Today is a dark day in history. Convicted felon, Donald Trump, has been elected as the President of the United States of America. Over 70 million Americans voted for him, and his promises of removing political opponents by force, mass deportation of immigrants and removing democracy altogether.
America is looking dire. The future of the world is getting darker. Nobody knows the next second what would happen to Ukraine, Taiwan, or even the very people of America itself. I personally know a handful of LGBTQ+ people in America who are worried by their safety. Trump’s ideas of Project 2025 will endanger the very existence of our friends, our families, the ones we love. Women will not have any rights to control their own bodies. Non-white races will face discrimination like never before. Education will see a radical change, and most likely, science will be replaced by religion. It is not sure that the United States will see another election. And this has much wider implications. The world’s future is uncertain.
Still, there is much to be done. If you are in America, please watch out for your safety. Consider moving to a safe place if you feel threatened. If you are not in America, please continue to support democracy and prevent a dictatorship in your area. I stand with our American friends.
The sky is always the darkest before the dawn. I believe in democracy, and I believe in liberty.
