Those of us who want liberation, remember.

Democrat or Republican, regardless of who occupies the White House, I fight the crimes of white supremacist patriarchy because the presidents never do.
So while of course I want Trump gone, I know much of what brought him will remain and that much of what brought him is this country and the white supremacist patriarchy that is foundational to it, and not only to the GOP.
Conservatives in the U.S. - white supremacist patriarchy - have been working for this moment since the 1970s and Trump was their useful idiot who delivered it.

Trump said out loud what so many whispered. He was never an aberration, but rather a fruition.
And his next iteration will be cleaner, fitter, better dressed & politer so that those who are not wealthy, able-bodied, cisgender, heterosexual, conservative white men can vote for him unabashedly & unashamedly and say they did it for God, country & to keep our pussies in check.
And if Biden wins, as well as celebrating “This is my America again,” his white liberal supporters will take this as a chance to once again extol the nonsensical & toxic fuckery of “civility” & “unity,” which demands we delude ourselves into a lockstep that benefits just them.
Also, white supremacist patriarchy is not defeated by embracing or reaching across the aisle to fascist enablers. When the GOP wins anything, no matter how narrowly, they act like “Fuck everyone WE OWN THIS!”
Whichever one of the two white men in their 70s win, I am here to wreck your party. Regardless of how the useful idiot of white supremacist patriarchy fares, his was never the only head I wanted.

So, declare your winner, America. I will defy, disobey, & disrupt your celebration
