I'm probably going to CTB now that Trump has won the election. This is due to him destroying my rights as a trans person and his general overall policy. I'm disappointed in America how could we let this tyrant rule agin? it makes no sense. Anyway we will see over the next couple of days if i go or not. Will make a definitive post beforehand. Sorry for my rambling. bye.
Pedo for president! Nice going America

I feel you, but please don't do anything impulsive. Absentee ballots still need to be counted and there will likely be an investigation into election fraud because of the high possibility of rigging. And even then, Trump isn't going to erase human rights overnight just because he became president again. There may be hope yet. That being said, I don't know your local situation, so it's hard to say what the impact will be on you personally. Your body your choice, but I'd encourage caution before deciding to CTB.

right came right back to pick it up right where i had left off. time to research once again.
I wish you clarity and protection of your human rights.... Tomorrow is my birthday. I'll be 57. I led a really great 50 years-until I contracting Lyme Disease in 2017 and my life fell fully apart. I've been staving off CTB for 6 years. Watching Trump win this election stole the last glimmers of hope remaining. I don't know how much longer I can hold on. My plan is to go before the holidays. I wish I didn't have to go alone. The ethics around right-to-die are antiquated. Perhaps there will be a miracle.

While I'm not here to tell anyone what to believe or how to feel about their beliefs.
They keep us scared and fighting amongst ourselves while plaguing our society with endless media brainwashing and propaganda.
Such a large portion of people don't even fully understand what they are even afraid of.
It's all just fear mongering nonsense. Attacking people at their very center of being.
It's exactly what they want and how they keep us in control.

Watch the youth suicide rate rise. And rise. And rise. Watch more children be gunned down in their schools. Watch families be ripped and torn apart in mangled blood on borders, state lines, and heath facilities that are now told healthcare is criminal. Many things are uncertain, except for the undeniable fact that in 2028, this nation will never be the same as it was four years before. May God have mercy on your lives, your communities and families, and mine. I live in fear.

I unfortunately may be right with you on that. My options are slim, and things were already not heading in my direction very well. I used to atleast have the hope and the love that i could atleast transition, that i grew to recognize the face in the mirror and now there comes the very real chance i will not even have this. If we cannot have a miracle then we atleast deserve peace in whatever forms from whatever is intended. I would rather go the way i am than have even that taken from me.

Time to start drinking again, start writing my note drafts and buy a rope. Was gonna wait until after my family visited next month. But knowing he won is giving me a panic attack. Gonna call off work tomorrow and just drink the day away or something.

I'm not American but even I know that's a terrible outcome...
Like others said, please don't do anything on impulse. I know these are horrible news and it's your choice but please make sure you're in the right state of mind if you want to do it.

I don't like Trump, but trans rights have deteriorated more under Biden than any other president. He didn't do shit to protect trans people because there was no money in it for Dems. Same with Harris - had she won, not a god damn thing would have changed.
When it comes to trans and reproductive rights, the only course of action is to move to a state that supports them. You will always have protections in states like CA, NY, NJ, OR, WA, and several others.

Haha, as if I give the slightest fuck if some rando is "nice" to me online. You're the problem because as soon as someone says something you don't like, you get all offended. I'm going to be dead in a couple months at most - trust me, if there is a problem, it's not me. You plan on being here longer, you find a solution.
But here's a slight hint as to why what I'm saying is true. Politics is about winning. Trump's SCOTUS nominees all voted to overturn Roe V Wade - something that potentially affects 50% of the population and that still wasn't enough for Harris to win. I don't care how vocal and loud the trans community is, 2%(ish) of the population is never going to saw anything more than the tightest of elections.
What I'm saying is a federal election will have minimal impact on both reproductive and trans rights. It's all coming down to the states. What the fuck has Biden done to stop all those red states from passing laws that decimated trans rights. Not a fucking thing.
This is coming from someone who has quite a few trans friends, a few who I love very much.

It's not at the federal level lgbtq rights are deteriorating in this country, it's at the state level. We've had a democratic president for 4 years, and things have only gotten worse.
Calm down funeralcry, things aint gonna change. Ernest will help u out to get N if u want. Oh, he got banned... (meanwhile Im gonna take a sip of my N and go back to sleep..)

You think that makes it better?? "Oh no, your rights are only being stripped away from you at a state level!!" As if there aren't trans people in red states like myself who are in actual danger. Why would you sit there and act like that makes it any better??

Project 2025 literally says they'll treat transgender people as predators. If they pass federal laws, we'll be in danger no matter where we live

This country is going into an era so dark that I could have only imagined it. I live in a red state that's already the worst in the country for trans issues, and Trump winning was kinda what I was waiting on to figure out if I'm going to be able to stick around or not. It's already so shitty here, having Trump in office is going to make it all worse and I don't want to be around to see it.
Fear is the easiest way to control people. I grew up in a cult and it took me a decade to understand that every person who was not in the cult was not out to kill me, drug me, rape me, etc. and could be a good person. And that was after I knew for a certainty that it was a cult.

Is this where we pretend this dude wasn't already president for 4 years and almost jackshit happened?
But guys THIS TIME for sure women will be shipped off into r*pe camps and the LGBT community will be gunned down in the streets because he's in power again. Definitely not fearmongering or spreading panic over the most mundane shit that will be figured out and solved in time anyway.
