I remember work the day after the election it was complete silence at lunch.
Everyone knew things were about to go to shit. There wasn’t even a point talking about it.
I had an Aussie team lead in 2016 and he messaged me the day after the election like "WTF happened?"
I was feeling grim and said "we just woke up in a fascist hellscape" which at the time was gruesome overkill for effect but I often think about that interaction now. America is not the same place it was a decade ago.
I should add I’m Canadian. This was in a Canadian office.
