Hi folks,
If you're interested in getting a well-balanced perspective from a gobshite anarchist on the US election result then here it is:

Nuh-uh. Trump is orders of magnitude worse than Clinton's business-as-usual neoliberalism. An undisguised fascist.
First of all, Trump agrees with ALL of Clinton's foreign policies, whether it's Israel, the middle-east, or Africa.
Second, Trump supports far-right dictatorial regimes such as Sisi's and Duterte's, and backs the genocidal fascists Putin and Assad.
Third, he has ingrained prejudices: he aims to deport 11 million people, and he hates blacks, Latinos, LGBTQIs, Muslims, Jews and women.
Fourth, he hates human rights, poor people (losers), social security and healthcare.
Fifth, every fascist extremist has congratulated and welcomed his election, from the US militia groups through the KKK, ISIS and Al Qaeda.
Sixth, he believes climate change is a hoax dreamed up by China.
Seventh, he is the figurehead of a cult of personality.
Eighth, he hearkens back to a mythical era that never existed, with his "Make America Great Again" strapline.
Sure, Clinton is a neoliberal hawk, and Sanders is infinitely preferable. But Trump is a full-on fascist.
