God this is such a good metaphor

This is the living proof that white supremacy is an international system that tries not only to normalize its’ own values and make it dominant in the world but also tries to marginalize everything that doesn’t fit preferences of white supremacists. That’s how you can easily spot them – they don’t like unfamiliar and unaccustomed names, words, looks and call it “strange”, “confusing”, “not normal” and so on.

when you grow but the walls around you stay the same

This is fascinating but also terrifying.

Please stop staying that you don’t care what happens to red states. That they deserve to crash and burn because “they asked for it”.

Women who need abortions still live there. LGBT teenagers still live there. Poor people still live there. Immigrants still live there. They do not deserve to hear that the whole world hates them and wants to see them rot because of what some people in their state did.

It is the same logic as “people in Afghanistan deserve what they get because they happen to live in proximity to terrorists”. It is the same damn thing and I do not buy that it’s different or better this time.

Vulnerable people in those states need our help now more than ever. They are not guilty by association. Stop it.

Vulnerable populations in red states absolutely deserve all the support and compassion. And fleeing elsewhere isn’t something they should be *forced* to do for their own safety - making their home states a safe place to be is part of what we have to fight for.
