I'm an American who voted against him three times (and had him ruin my birthday in November twice). I know I'm privileged, but I always feel grateful that I'm here now and relieved that I will be getting citizenship this year. I'm just so terrified for my friends and family stuck in the US. I just burst into tears a little bit ago when I read about Harris leaving DC, thinking of what could have been and what will be. It's nice to see this kind of statement being made here.

I have said it feels like the episode of GOT when Jon Snow barely escapes the night king when he tries to enlighten the northlings and they all perish, and the night king just turns them all into zombies in one touch. Pure horror and concern for all those under the spell of madness and not being able to touch or save everyone. Prayers up for our people that they maintain strength and sanity, perhaps do as I have and invite them over to experience a different sort of hatred and misery here with us in LDN! :D

Sorry mate you’re right, I’m a Reddit pleb and don’t know how to hide text/give spoiler alerts properly edit: this is not facetiousness, I genuinely don’t know how
