Well, I don't know if I should say this here, but here it goes.

To the people currently protesting and rioting in the streets about the outcome of the election (I don't mean any of you personally), chanting "NOT MY PRESIDENT" and stuff like that, hoping that the Electoral College will magically change its mind and elect Hillary (I can't believe it can theoretically happen. That system is really fucked up), let's face it, she lost. Did she lose while having more popular votes? Yes, that's bullshit. Is the EC undemocratic? Yes, absolutely. However, we have to recognize that, under the current system, Trump won fair and square. Besides, Hillary has already conceded.

You know I don't like Trump. In fact, I despise him. He's a racist, sexist, megalomaniacal douchebag with anger issues who will probably cause the apocalypse. However, he won a democratic (ish) election, and whether we want it or not, he'll be president for the next four years. Besides, remember when Trump said he would only accept the results if he won, and we were outraged? Well, not accepting the results now is a bit... hypocritical, to say the least. The best people can do now is ensure a peaceful transition of power.

Peaceful transitions are the cornerstones of a democracy (I may have stolen that quote, but I don't remember from who). Don't devalue yours by not conceding defeat. If you have a democracy, you have to accept the good and the bad. Trust me. I've lived all my life in a quasi-dictatorship where some people can manipulate election results if they lose. It's not funny.

If you want to help, start working for the next election, to ensure he is not reelected. Or even better, for the midterm, to ensure he has only two years to wreck shit. He'll probably fuck up anyway, so it should be easy task.

Well, that was my little rant. Don't worry, I wasn't referring to any of you personally or generally. I only needed to get that out of my system.
