I'm scared and despondent. I'm scared for myself, my loved ones, my community, afraid of what else we will lose and I'm despondent over all the possible immediate & long term ramifications. Extremism and violence towards others is already on the rise. I'm worried that it's going to get much worse, especially for women, people of colour, and the lgbtg+ community at large.
I've survived domestic abuse, sexual assaults, harassment, and stalking from relatives and ex partners/acquaintances. I know first hand just how cruel people can be when they believe they are superior. I'm terrified of standing out or simply being visible because it usually results in me getting hurt. Now that fear has intensified because cruelty just won the grand prize. I'm tired of living in fear and witnessing decades of progress being undone by greedy misogynistic bigots.
