Bookish Jen November 15, 2016 Share November 15, 2016 I'm allowing myself one more day of mourning (tonight I'm going to stuff my face with some Chinese food) and then tomorrow I'm going to pick myself up by my bra straps and try to figure out what I can due to support liberal, progressive and feminist causes in the wake of the election. I write book reviews at a blog and for a while I would sometimes read and review books by those on the extreme right. Well, no more. Why should I give these people more publicity for their horrific views. Instead, I'm going to seek out books by people with more liberal, progressive and feminist views. They deserve the publicity. And besides, it's my blog; I can do what I want. Furthermore, I'd love to donate money to causes I believe in, but I'm not awash in cash. I am a mad crafter and I'm swimming in beads. I would love to make jewelry, sell them and donate the proceeds to various causes like Planned Parenthood or my local food bank. Does anyone have ideas how to do this in a way that doesn't look like a scam? You can always PM me. 13 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/49804-post-election-fears-anxieties/page/52/#findComment-2749658

Many people will say that if somebody uses a slur just because they’re angry or whatever, that doesn’t mean they’re “really” racist. They were just angry in that moment or it was a slip of the tongue or whatever. I'm not sure exactly what your point is. I don't understand if you are criticising the Trump camp (which I would find perfectly understandable) or whether you are trying to explain their behavior. If you feel like qualifying your post, I'd sure like to see what you felt your point was. When I was in middle school, I had a friend who asked me if I'd like to hear a joke. I said, "Sure. I'd like to hear a joke." He said, "I've just heard that Jews are really not bad people as long as they stay in their place. Do you know where that place is?" I told him I didn't know and he told me, "The ovens." When I made it clear to him that I didn't find that funny, he said to me, "Oh Come On! It's just a joke". I took a good lesson away from that exchange. IMHO, he is clearly a racist. I never wanted anything more to do with him after that. Perhaps that's because I am Jewish. But I think it goes deeper than that. Edited November 15, 2016 by AliShibaz 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/49804-post-election-fears-anxieties/page/52/#findComment-2749750

Of course no one cares and the media is barely reporting on it, because we all know by now that the Constitution does not matter. http://www.thelondoneconomic.com/uncategorised/donald-trump-was-right-the-election-was-rigged-in-his-favour/15/11/ Wow. I knew it was bad with the Voting Rights Act change, but this article is very sobering...off to research this further. The hits just keep coming, don't they?

Bastet November 16, 2016 Share November 16, 2016 Quote Wow. I knew it was bad with the Voting Rights Act change, but this article is very sobering...off to research this further. Greg Palast knows his stuff, and has uncovered all sorts of voter suppression in previous elections (I first read about him when he uncovered the more than 55,000 black voters in FL who were incorrectly identified as felons and thus improperly denied their right to vote/have their vote counted in 2000, but that's just one example from his career of investigative reporting; he's been sounding the alarm for a long time). I've set the article aside to digest properly tomorrow, but it's a must-read. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/49804-post-election-fears-anxieties/page/52/#findComment-2750691
EyewatchTV211 November 16, 2016 Share November 16, 2016 Senator Graham somewhat doing the right thing, although he only mentions punishing Putin.

formerlyfreedom November 16, 2016 Share November 16, 2016 Do not post the same thing in multiple topics. This topic is for people who are anxious over the election results. Cute bunnies, Joe Biden memes, conversation about the election results in general, suggestions for organizations to support, those are all good here. 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/49804-post-election-fears-anxieties/page/52/#findComment-2750757
Quilt Fairy November 16, 2016 Share November 16, 2016 Folks if you’re looking for an environmental group to support, please don’t forget the Sierra Club Quote Founded by legendary conservationist John Muir in 1892, the Sierra Club is now the nation's largest and most influential grassroots environmental organization -- with more than two million members and supporters. Our successes range from protecting millions of acres of wilderness to helping pass the Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, and Endangered Species Act. More recently, we've made history by leading the charge to move away from the dirty fossil fuels that cause climate disruption and toward a clean energy economy. All of these things are under threat by a Trump administration. Current donations will be matched one-for-one up to $1 million. http://www.sierraclub.org/ 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/49804-post-election-fears-anxieties/page/52/#findComment-2750766

BW Manilowe November 16, 2016 Share November 16, 2016 41 minutes ago, Calvada said: I personally have found Neil Diamond's "Red Red Wine" to be very soothing the past week. Mine (don't laugh) is Barry Manilow's Let Freedom Ring. Anyone unfamiliar with it, who cares, should be able to find a video on YouTube. I can also provide the names of CDs on which it can be found, if anyone's interested. It should also be on iTunes &/or Amazon Music Downloads. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/49804-post-election-fears-anxieties/page/52/#findComment-2750816
stillshimpy November 16, 2016 Share November 16, 2016 And the Sierra Club joins the list of organizations who tend to like it when I'm ticked off at some opposing force to their cause. Take that. Plus, I was just in Muir Woods so it had been on my mind. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/49804-post-election-fears-anxieties/page/52/#findComment-2750869
