On November 5, 2024 we made a grave error. We sent Donald Trump back to the white house. A man who has according to the Wikipedia article about his campaign increasingly espoused violent and authoritarian rhetoric. He has used dehumanizing language against his political enemies, and his 2024 campaign regularly espoused anti-immigrant nativism and anti-transgender fearmongering. Trump's embrace of far-right extremism and harsher rhetoric against his political enemies has been described by historians and scholars as populist, authoritarian, fascist, and unlike anything a political candidate has ever said in American history.
Although I knew he was going to be bad I could not have anticipated just how bad things would be. When the news started coming in about his cabinet picks I started to feel terrified. Here he is consolidating power just like a dictator would appointing people who would have fealty towards him and be willing to carry out his will even when it goes against our laws and norms. Not only that one of his appointees Tulsi Gabbard seems more loyal to a local Hawaiian cult and Russia than to the US and our allies.
I worry for our future and worry for all the people Trump is going to harm. I especially feel sorry for all the people in other countries who didn't vote for Trump who will suffer because the damage Trump causes isn't just going to stay contained in the US. His presidency is going to have negative effects on the global economy and even on the planet itself.
Trump claims to represent the comman man but he actually is for the billionaires who will benefit from his tax cuts and stripping of regulations that protect us ordinary people. With Trump our rights will be taken away and the rich will get richer while the poor get poorer.
The corruption of the billionaires buying elections have never been so apparent with Elon Musk spending $277 million of his money to get Trump elected. Now Elon musk wants to do the same thing to your country by donating £78,000,000 to Nigel Farage
I'm determined to do what I can to try to make things better even though I'm a nobody. When I found out about Elon Musk's possible donation to Nigel Farage I felt inspired to share my experience and try to warn the UK about Elon Musk and Trump. The things I described could happen to you, they can happen anywhere. I urge the people in the UK to reject Elon Musk's attempt to interfere in your politics.
I noticed a pattern if you see someone who exhibits some or all of these traits you know they are not someone you'd want elected.
- Strongman personality
- Claims to be for the common people (but are actually for the billionaires and the elites)
- Xenophobic
- Sympathetic towards Putin and other dictators
A person who fits this description is nothing more than a conman. You will get poorer, the rich will get richer and your rights will be taken away.
Think about this list and think who matches some or all of that description. Think about if you'd want to live in fear everyday like I do now. Then realize you can help stop it. You can help simply by spreading the word and talking and listening to people.

That's brilliant! I really hope we can do those things here.
