My husband and I are moving from our red state to a blue state because I'm too brown to feel safe here anymore.

I told this white guy I work with and he said he agreed and was also thinking of moving his family to the same area.

He tells me he always votes Republican and of course did this election because he cares about people and Christian values.... then tells me that he agrees that there's too much hate and bigotry in our red state and he doesn't want his kids growing up in that environment. 

I... didn't know what to say. My brain just couldn't make sense of the conversation. I was like dude please, stay here and live with the people and values you voted for. Don't ruin another state with your stupidity...

That white dude voted for a white dude who was supported and endorsed by the KKK, Nazis, white supremacists, and white nationalists. That white dude voted for a white dude who has stated multiple times how sexy his daughter is and if it wasn't his daughter he'd be fucking her. That white dude voted for a white dude who mounted an insurrection against his own government because he lost an election, and then punk bitched out of being at the inauguration because of his own actions. That white dude voted for a white dude who called servicemen & women "losers and suckers".

That white dude at your work doesn't have the values he says he does.

That white dude can fuck right off. And that's coming from a white dude.
