Great song. A 20 year old Hispanic guy I know went to work the day following the election. A female coworker went up to him and literally started taunting him to his face, laughing that he was going to be sent back to Mexico. He was born here! His mother was born here! He has never even been to Mexico. He is just the nicest young man. I am sickened by this whole debacle.

Thanks you for this. I'm in study and prepare mode for when I might be able to make a difference. These careless people are part of humanity and somehow we have to do what we can to help at least the repentant ones find sken wisdom.
You will see many who regret their vote (we're already seeing some). I'm sad to say that many of those will cling to their racism, sexism, anti-LGBTism... But for those who say they were wrong in those things, I'm willing to do what I can to educate them and help them heal from their 45 coma.
I am standing by for them to return from the madness also. It's the only way we get through this. But it's like dealing with alcoholics. You can't make a difference till they realize they have a problem.
Sadly, this will happen. I feel so bad about this because these yahoos voted in a virulent racist and so many people will suffer. And that's both documented and undocumented people. I worked with undocumented people when I did fruit harvesting and they were all very hard workers. And they pay taxes without reaping any benefit. There should have been a path to citizenship, not mass deportations. But thanks to idiots thought that eggs were too expensive, they will be.

We can take action safely when we observe this type of behavior. Please look into de-escalation training so we can all learn how to protect co-workers and friends from this kind of abuse in the future. I took several trainings so I could feel safe intervening in this kind of circumstance. https://righttobe.org/training/bystander-intervention-training/; https://www.goodgoodgood.co/podcast/the-5-ds-of-bystander-intervention.

Most of them will have to hit a wall and then they will wake up.
