The worst part of the success of Trump in the United States Presidential election is how it affects the culture, everywhere.
It emboldens intolerance, racism, homophobia, transphobia, misogyny, sexism and virtually everything that is base and vile in a human being.
We will see its full effects as the next year unfolds. We will see it in our communities, online, and everywhere in society.
Because Trump has normalised the demonisation of difference and the dehumanisation of other human beings, such as Mexicans, Haitians etc.
It won’t always be this dark, I hope.
But for now, it is utterly depressing.
