Donald Trump will become the 45th President of the United States.

It’s clear that liberals have spent a week in shock. Facebook and Twitter are in tears. Flights to Canada have been booked.

In the minds of these liberals, misogyny and racism have prevailed once again — they’ve come back from the depths of history to haunt us.

But I am filled with rage. I am not surprised. My ass is staying in the South and even if I wanted to leave, I couldn’t. Right now, y’all are being forced to reconcile your patriotism with reality. Y’all are just now being forced to deal with the horrors of America. But as marginalized people, we have been surviving — and dying from — these horrors for centuries. Y’all’ve just now decided to pay attention.

Donald Trump may be an out-and-proud misogynist, and chivalry may be dead, but y’all have benefited from it immensely. Perhaps until now, the notion that honorable men should protect and “honor” women largely kept y’all at a distance from the true nature of things. Men have never honored us.
