Yes, I'm a black man and I voted for Donald Trump. However, these days I tend to keep this information relatively secret from some of my friends, family, and social circles.....why?
Because telling people you voted for Donald Trump can get you seriously fvcked up, on top of kicked out of social circles, family meetings, etc., etc.
This is one of the reasons the polls were so "wrong" in relation to the election, it's that you had a lot of "silent" Trump supporters because telling people in today's society that you supported Donald Trump, could get you physically assaulted.
As a result, I am going to write to government officials to look at creating a Hate Crimes Law in relation to people having to deal with various forms of discrimination, attacks, etc., based on their political affiliation.
This isn't just a "street" thing, this is going on in corporations and ESPECIALLY in higher education circles. A teacher might give you a fvcked up grade based on your political affiliation. It needs to stop and I'm tired of it.
I've been a Moderate for some time now, voting for Democrats and Republicans, and I can't tell you how many times I have been called Uncle Tom, Coon, Sambo, Sell-out, Self-Hater, etc., just because I don't 100% vote for a party (Democrats) in which I disagree with 70% of their policies. This is HATE SPEECH, period.
Check out some of these videos of people being attacked, it needs to stop:

You couldn't even criticize Obama's policies without being labeled racist! But the left can beat the shyt out of someone just because they voted for Donald Trump, and that's okay? That's called freedom of expression? That's called democracy??
