"I really thought things would change after this administration, when we have Mr. Trump in office, things would change to the better," Atallah said.

I really do not understand this mentality of minorities and especially muslim minorities. The turnip enacted travel bans that were blatantly racist and anti-muslim in his first term. That is just one example of his racism. Why the fuck would someone think he was the better option?

I tried not to laugh. People really need to stop putting so much trust in to politicians, and those of us who are in oppressed groups (basically not rich, white, or cis man)… We need to stop thinking they’ll ever see us as equals, no matter how successful we are. They just don’t. Trump & company really think we are all as expendable and worthless as a plastic fork.
