That's why I have such a massive issue with people acting like they care now.

It's great that people care! But where was this energy when it was happening under the person they supported.

yeah it sucks and make me angry too. yet what is necessary now is using the momentum created under trump to ensure it never happens again under any admin, and hopefully wake people up once and for all to the horrors of immigration enforcement under ICE

My fear is that people will go back to not caring if a Democrat is ever elected again. Because they seem to not care when it's blue. Only when it's red.

But also; we did, in fact, tell people that even if you are sure *their* precious darling president would never use an institution for evil, they cannot be sure that no one ever will, and thus you probably should not build the giant institution capable of giant evils.

I am so goddamned tired.
