For what it's worth, I don't think anyone who is trying to discuss the election with you in good faith paints you as just another MAGA American. We know some Americans faught tooth and nail to stop this. Now you could be lying just as easily as you could be telling the truth, although I have no reason to think you are lying. So assuming you're telling the truth, as crushing as a second Trump presidency is for me, someone who doesn't live in the US, who literally can't do anything about him, it must be so much more worse for you.

I know you're tired but your fight against fascism is just beginning, it's far from over. I hope you can find the strength to keep going. As an outsider all I can do is tell you that some of us see you and know that you're not well right now. Gandalf put it best;

"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo. "So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
