Prior to the last Presidential election had I met up with a racist, sexist, xenophobic homophobe I would have done my level best to avoid them. Why on earth would I now want to work with them? What in the hell do I have in common with someone who is so devoid of critical analysis and common decency that they’d vote for Donald “the pussy grabber”?
I get it. Hillary was a bad candidate. The Clinton’s are synonymous with controversy. The problem is that other than Bill getting a blowjob in the Oval Office it’s all bullshit. The only real problem she has is that it’s more exciting watching paint dry than listening to her talk. She’s definitely not the life of the party. So instead of bringing in the boring girl on the school project who was going to bitch about everyone’s work but in the end get you an A, you drafted the rich kid with the keys to his parent’s liquor cabinet a pocket of roofies, and zero moral fiber. Because, hey…we’re all going to die in the end, but at least it’ll be a party!
So please, all of you, stop telling me I need to work with these people. I don’t. When I’m confronted with them, I walk away. If I recognize them on the street, I cross to the other side. I would much rather spend my time with an informed homosexual, black, Muslim, Asian, Mexican, transgender, scientist than sit for a single moment with a conversation with an individual so ignorant. Seriously, in all reality the only interaction I need from someone like this is for them to hand me my fries when I get to the second window.
