Scientific American Article: Election Grief Is Real. Here’s How to Cope

The second part being by far the more dangerous. We all get self-absorbed from time to time but being a total wuss about everything all the time is a choice. I'm not one of the extreme yahoos who thinks we need a war every generation to "toughen people up" but good lord, like, the left would be so much more favored by ordinary people if they would just pull back on the therapy-brained emotionalistic wimpiness by like, 10 to 20 percent even! A lot of people like some parts of the progressive platform, myself included, but we are turned all the way off voting for it because its proponents are so pathetic, both individually and as a whole.

Breaking news- people experience grief in response to harmful news.

People who are oblivious to the ways they're being harmed, or happy about the ways people they hate are being harmed, aren't reacting negatively to Trump's election and his appointment of incompetent, evil and harmful cronies to key positions of power.

Other people realize that literally everything in America is about to get worse- healthcare, economy, pollution, cost of living, safety and that the outlook is even worse for many of the most vulnerable people around the world.

Being unaware or apathetic about harm to yourself, your family, your country and your fellow humans might make you strong or tough. Or maybe it just shows you're stupid or selfish.

No one likes to be rejected. I’m sorry(I’m really not😂) that it happened to you, but it is possible that it’s not everybody else and that it’s really you.

Oh it's going to be really really really bad in the US. Very bad. I'm scared to go outside

The far right doesn't believe in science. They either only believe in jesus or little man trump and the lies both of those entities spread. America is a second-rate country now, much like this message board and the half-wits that post here. Enjoy losers.

Cope. Seethe.

imagine telling this to elon with a straight face
