The Election Reality

Ok, the reality is we have a fascist felon at the top of one party's ticket. This felon was president before, impeached twice, weakened the hegemony of the US (which I sort of favor, but he did it very fucked up, and now there's a power vacuum to be filled), and many Americans died under his watch for calling COVID a hoax.  Recently, he was convicted from stealing from his own company to pay off a porn star that he cheated on his third wife with. But before that, instead of having our traditional peaceful transfer of power, he lied about the election being stolen from him, only because of his ego.

Mixed

Fuck you all, who tell us who and what we are in this world. I know who I am, and so does Kamala and so did Barack. So do my siblings, my sons, my nieces and nephews, and the great nieces and nephews will too. No human being can fit into a box nice and neat, no matter how you all feel about it. Fuck these labels. And don't be jealous of our mixed pride.  So, please stop telling us how we should define...
