Meeting new people, knowing half the country supports these fascists
I just made an appointment with a new therapist and as I hung up I thought, how do I know this woman isn’t a Trump supporter? I’m so angry and I’m so scared - how can I talk about that with someone who wants all this?
I’m involved with the local theater and I overheard the actor I’m supposed to kiss in the next production talking happily, excited about the tax cuts he thinks he’s going to get. Do I declare I don’t kiss Trump supporters and walk out? I love doing the theater. I don’t want to blackball myself.
And on that note - I’m a single woman and I’m very lonely. How am I supposed to even try to meet anyone if the majority of men in my area are Republicans? I don’t want anything to do with these fucking fascists. What am I supposed to do? How are you all navigating this? Do I just sit home alone for the foreseeable future? I live in a small town in Florida. I don’t know what to do.
