Short PSA

Don't belittle people's fears - fear of what may happen to themselves and the fear for the people they know and love. It's unconscionably rude.

Yes, it does. It's real fear, moreso for people that are already disenfranchised.

I also don't see it as disloyal to be discouraged and horrified at the outcome of the election and ponder leaving if there was a viable option in doing so. Hopes for a nation to try to continue doing good for minorities, gay folks, heck WOMEN in general have been devastated.

It's not disloyalty to express concern and worry. I call it compassion.
