When you say you’re the victim of abuse you are supposed to, by the common understanding, be able to bring up very specific episodes of that abuse in order to “prove its really abuse”.

But a lot of abuse just doesn’t work that way.

Sometimes they just wore you down constantly. Sometimes you couldn’t put your finger on it, but felt all of effects none-the-less. Sometimes its so plain awful that you’ve repressed it. Sometimes it was so damn insidious that you normalized it until one day years later you mention it and someone gives you a look of shock and you realize it wasn’t normal.

All of you. Any of you.

You are all just as valid as someone who wrote a whole damn memoir on the thing.

The stories coming out of this post are absolutely heartbreaking.

thank you for this post

yo so i’ve got a trump supporter ‘demanding’ evidence of him being racist, against women and LGBTQ, you got any good sources to back me up here?

His history of housing discrimination is the most blatant. His racist stereotyping of undocumented immigrants, muslims, his attacks on Obama saying he’s not a citizen all have racial undertones.

Probably can find some in our trumps America tag or just searching trump on here.

Eon

If they’re supporters then they’ve been following him so they already know they’re just sealioning.

^^

One of Trump’s personal friends and one of Americas largest Cocaine Kingpins is arrested in Ohio for drug trafficking, despite not having committed any crimes in New Jersey his case is inexplicably moved to New Jersey where the Judge for the case was Trump’s sister. Trump sends his sister a letter pleading that she give the man leniency calling him an important member of the community. He is then sentenced to 18 months in prison while his underlings are sentenced to 20 years. After he is released from prison Trump lets the drug kingpin stay in one of his multi-million dollar properties and gives the man a job overseeing Trump’s Helicopter fleet.

Trump was fined after it was proven he had committed a felony by lying to the Securities and Exchange Commission about company 

“They are lying because they are jealous of Trump.”

So instead of just briefly listing every single reason Trump is a racist, and have it all be brushed off as fake news. I’m going to go into specific detail about why Trump is a racist.

Now the clearest example of Trump’s racism is a quote from the President of Trump’s Casinos.

“I’ve got black accountants at Trump Castle and Trump Plaza. Black guys counting my money! I hate it. The only kind of people I want counting my money are short guys that wear yarmulkes every day… . I think the guy is lazy. And it’s probably not his fault because laziness is a trait in blacks. It really is, I believe that. It’s not anything they can control.“

And then when asked about it later by Playboy in 1997 Trump says, *“The stuff O’Donnell wrote about me is probably true,”

Now this is just one of many quotes attributed to Trump you can look at ones from other sources like when U.N Goodwill Ambassador Don Cheadle claims Trump once asked family friend: *“Would you ever fuck a n*gger?”*

Or when a Sound Technician on The Apprentice says Trump repeatedly called him a “Fucking Monkey.

After six other former contestants of The Apprentice blasted Trump as a racist and sexist.

Only for two producers on the show to separately claim that there is an unaired video of Trump saying the N-Word.

And you could say they are just lying and risking their 20+ year reputation as veteran producers in the television industry in order to make up a claim that Trump is a racist except for the fact that the shows copyright holder and a close friend of Trump then goes on Twitter after they make that claim to threaten to “bankrupt” anyone through lawsuits who would leak unaired footage without President Trumps permission.(Not to deny that the footage exists, but say if you leak it you will be sued.

This is a lot like how when Trump’s wife accused him of rape and his lawyer didn’t say, “Trump didn’t rape her!” He said, “A husband cannot legally rape their spouse.”

But excluding less clear cut examples like when Trump fired a black contestant from the show for being over educated.) Or when Trump [literally wanted to make a season of the show where it was White People vs. Black People to prove once and for all which ones were better.

Ignoring all those, that’s still just 9 separate people from a single project Trump worked on saying he is racist.

The number gets a lot higher if you look at the whole picture. Like the former casino employees who claim all blacks were ordered to leave the casino floor in Atlantic City whenever Trump or wife arrived on the property.

Or the Beauty Pageant organizers who said Trump refuses to cast black models.

And these aren’t even getting into his actions from the campaign trail where at one rally he had 30 black college students and supporters ejected for no apparent reason.

Or when he had the only black GOP official at an Atlanta event that he helped organize, kicked out of the event for no reason.

Or when he picked a literal white supremacist as a delegate in California.

And this was after he refused to disavow support for The Klu Klux Klan and David Duke on live television, by lying and claiming he had never heard of the The Klu Klux Klan or David Duke so he won’t condemn groups he knows nothing about 

despite having previously mentioned David Duke by name over a decade earlier.

And despite the fact his father was arrested for attacking police at a Klan rally.

And we could go even further by looking at the time Trump’s son gave an interview with Holocaust denying radio show host who wants to bring back slavery. Only for Trump to give the radio host press credentials.

Just like he gave White Supremacists credentials and VIP seating at the GOP Convention.

Or just like how he decided to hire a spokesperson who goes after Obama by saying, “We need a pure breed like Trump in the white house and not a Negro.” 

But lets forget that all now because at this point the evidence is compounding to such a point that the idea that Trump isn’t a racist is becoming absurd. Any Trump supporters reading this can only think of so many bizarre excuses and justifications for the things I just described before they become angry and just declare it all fake news.

Let’s look at at a single set of examples. These ones being the ones that have legal precedent behind them.

In 1999 Trump was sued after he built a casino in black majority city and promised the mayor he would hire locals, and then refused to hire any blacks and opting to staff the casino with almost exclusively all white employees.

In 1997 Trump was sued for refusing to hire black models, among other charges.

In 1992 Trump was fined $200,000 by the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement for not allowing blacks or women onto his casino floor while a personal friend of his who was a racist Mafia leader was gambling.

And we go could go into the specifics about each one of these cases and other cases like them that I didn’t mention but all of this is overshadowed by the first major story about Trump ever written. So let’s focus on that.

The first time Trump ever had his name in the newspaper was in 1973 and the newspaper headline was, “Landlord accused of anti-black bias”

In 1973 the Justice Department heard that Donald Trump was refusing to rent homes to black people. So they sent a black woman into one of the apartments and the woman offered the manager a 6 month down payment on rent. Only for him to tell her that there were no available apartments. Then 10 minutes later they sent a white woman in to ask to rent an apartment with no money and she was offered one on the spot.

They did the same thing in 39 different apartment buildings all owned by Trump and the same thing happen every time. When they asked the tenant managers why they wouldn’t rent homes to black people, every single one of them including two other employees working directly under Trump testified that when Donald took over the company from his father in 1970 he instructed them all to label every application into three categories

* A would be white people with good credit

* B would be white people with bad credit

* C would be non-whites.

Donald Trump told them to only consider applications from people in the A category.

Now you could always argue that for some reason the employees at every single one of the 39 Trump owned apartment were just racist and didn’t like black people on their own so they decided to break the law and potentially lose their jobs. And they just happen to come up with identical and oddly specific lies to implicate Trump as a racist and every single one of these employees were willing to commit perjury over these lies, and then for some reason two other Trump employees who didn’t even work at the apartments also for some reason came forward to falsely confirm their accounts.

And this argument might work if it was only this one time Trump had been accused of doing something racist. But the fact of the matter is this is just one of dozens of examples.

Let’s actually do the math on this:

* 41 employees who testified in 1973 that Trump refused to rent homes to black people,

* 36 employees who worked with the Urban League Investigators who testified in 1978 during another investigation and lawsuit about Trump refusing to hire black people.

* The black employees who said they were forced to leave the Casino floor when Trump and his wife arrived on the property

* One of Trumps assistants who warned Black Pageant Contestant Kamie Crawford in 2010 that, “Mr. Trump doesn’t like black people.”

* Trump’s ex-wife who says he is a racist.

* The over 50 Beauty Pageant contestant and Trump Modeling service employees who claimed Trump refused to hire black models.

* Jill Harth who claimed the same thing in 1997.

* The 20 black people from Gary Indiana denied jobs Trump promised them in their 1996 Lawsuit including the cities mayor.

* The 9 Apprentice crew members, (Not including the 30 Apprentice crew members who openly say Trump is a sexist.)

* The President of his Casino.

* The friend of the U.N Goodwill Ambassador.

That adds up to 164 people who personally know Trump that claimed was he a racist specifically against black people. (There is a whole separate list for accusations of racism involving Asians or Latinos or Native Americans.)

Now does the number seem a little low here? Well it should because **I’m only counting accusations of racism that occurred before Trump even ran for president.**

But you could always say that all of these people for some reason conspired over the period of 40 years to systematically accuse Trump of being a racist for no reason.

So let’s use Occam’s Razor. Who do we trust here? The U.N Goodwill Ambassadors and the Mayors and the Trump Employees and the Trump associates and his executives his ex wife and the Justice Department Investigators and all the 164 people?

Or Donald Trump a man who lied 400 times in his first 80 days a president. A man who literally lies about things he has said, that there is video of him saying,

a man who tells The New York Times he wants to impose a 45% tariff on Chinese goods. And then when he is confronted about this he claims he never said that and then 2 minutes later goes onto argue in favor of the 45% tariff.

A man who statistically speaking has lied more times then any other person who has ever ran for president period.

What’s more likely? That Trump is a racist or that hundreds of well respected people decided to come together and risk their careers for no determinable reason or gain to accuse a failed casino owner of disliking black people?

Compiled sources 

For the Homophobia:

Tired of hearing folks say “but Trump is pro-LGBT!” everywhere on the internet? Me too. This is a non-exhaustive list detailing Trump to be an anti-LGBTQ candidate.

Trump signs a pledge to defend discrimination against LGBTQ people. This would permit discrimination even in medical emergencies.

Trump would repeal LGBT discrimination protections among federal contractors and remove federal protections for transgender students at public schools.

Trump states that he wants to fill the vacancy on the Supreme Court with someone “in the mold” of Scalia.The late Supreme Court Justice Scalia has had a long history of homophobia, such as saying that disallowing sodomy laws is discrimination against the poor, poor oppressed heterosexuals.

Trump’s picks to fill the Supreme Court vacancy are quite scary, including one who has supported sodomy laws.

Trump vocally supported HB2. HB2 bars trans people who haven’t had their birth certificate amended from using the restroom of their gender and overrides all local ordinances that provide LGBT hiring and housing protections.

When asked if Trump would appoint justices to the supreme court specifically to overturn the Obergefel v. Hodges ruling Trump stated “I would strongly consider that, yes.”

Despite the multiple reports over the past four years stating that transgender inclusion would pose no harm to military effectivenesss and allow over 15,500 active servicemembers to perform theri duties more efficiently Trump derided the Pentagon for lifting the ban on transgender troops, describing it as “political correctness” and “ridiculous,” not unlike the rhetoric used to defend Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.

Instead of offering his condolences for the victims of tragedy or even just discussing it as it pertains to policy like other candidates Trump bragged about supposedly being right in predicting the Pulse nightclub shooting.

Instead of visiting Orlando to show solidarity to the LGBTQ community in the wake of the Pulse shooting Trump visited Orlando a month later to speak at an extremely anti-LGBTQ rally.

At the Republican National Convention Trump stated in allusion to Orlando that he would protect LGBTQ citizens from “a hateful foreign ideology.” Not only does this dishonestly characterize the motivation of the Orlando shooting but it specifically avoids condemning hateful domestic ideologies, ie that of his Republican colleagues.

Speaking of hateful domestic ideologies, the Log Cabin Republicans described the 2016 republican platform as the most anti-LGBT platform in the history of the party. It includes an amendment to ban same-sex marriage and legal protection of anti-LGBT conversion torture. An openly gay member of the RNC platform committee was driven to the point of tears by the party’s adamant refusal to let Obergefel v. Hodges lay as it is.

Trump chose somebody who believes that you can forcibly starve and electrocute children into not being gay as his runningmate.

Trump’s top domestic policy advisor says that being gay is a lifestyle choice that can be changed.

Trump’s early cabinet picks are all anti-LGBTQ folks.

And the sexism

Former Trump employee describes Trump committing workplace sexual misconduct.

Female employee frequently mentioned in speeches by Trump as proof of him not being a sexist blasts Trump as being a sexist.

Trump claims all women are bimbos and gold diggers.

Trump forces models to humiliate themselves in order to, “Weed out the ugly ones.”

Trumps claims women who breastfeed are disgusting.

Trump refuses to hire mothers because, “She’s not giving me 100%. She’s giving me 84% and 16% is going towards taking care of children.”

Trump argues prosecutor should allow rapist to pay victim compensation instead of face jail time.

Trump defends military personnel accused of sexual assault and rape by putting the blame on the fact women are allowed to serve along men in the military.

“26,000 unreported sexual assults in the military-only 238 convictions. What did these geniuses expect when they put men & women together?” ― Donald Trump

(Yes he did misspell the word assault in that tweet that’s not a typo on my end.)

Multiple women working on Trump campaign file complaints with Civil Rights Commission against Trump for sexual harassment or sexual discrimination.

Woman claims Trump tried to rape her her and told her he wanted to, “Make her his sex slave.” Afterwards Trump ruins her and her husband financially.

Pageant Contestants claims Trump sexually assaulted her.

Donald Trump is accused of rape by his ex-wife.

Donald Trump is accused of rape or sexual assault by numerous women over several decades. (This includes a case where a 13 year old accuses Trump of raping her while he was at a party hosted by personal friend and now convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein)

Donald Trump makes sexist comments about Hillary.

Donald Trump makes sexist comments about Rosie O’Donnell

Trump tweets for people to check out the sex tape of a former Miss Universe contestant that he was previously accused of making racist comments against.

Trump praised Sharia Law for making marriages easier for men.

Dozens of women who worked under Trump claim sexual harassment.

“She was married, I tried to fck her… I moved on her like a btch… When you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab them by the p*ssy, you can do anything.” Actual Trump quote caught on audio in 2005.

Some assorted things Trump has said to or about women before.

“You wouldn’t have your job if you weren’t beautiful.”

“I’ve said if Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps I’d be dating her.”

“I bet you make a great wife.“

“I think the only difference between me and the other candidates is that I’m more honest and my women are more beautiful.”

“You could see there was blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of her — wherever. ”

“Heidi Klum. Sadly, she’s no longer a 10.”

“It must be a pretty picture, you dropping to your knees.”

“Her ass is too fat.”

“(Women) You have to treat ‘em like shit.”

(Trump said this right before pouring wine down the back of female investigative journalist Marie Brenners dress in 1992 as payback for her writing a negative story about him. He later bragged about the event.)

it’s also fucked up that fat people literally fear going to the doctor for anything because they know the first thing out of their dr’s mouth no matter what their ailment is, is gonna be “lose weight lol” broken leg? lose weight. rash? lose weight. whooping cough? lose weight binch!!!!! like we get it. but can you just write my prescription you bitch so i can go eat a salad and not call you again until im about to die of the plague????

I would not be surprised if someone did a study and found an increase in misdiagnosis of fat patients due to doctors focusing solely on weight loss as a panacea and ignoring other vital issues

You mean like this article from the NY Times (from September of 2016) talking about how doctors refuse to consider non weight related issues until they absolutely have to?

Why Do Obese Patients Get Worse Care? Many Doctors Don’t See Past the Fat



Or this study showing that even though the bias is often unintentional it greatly changes patient care?

The Memo That Got an NSC Staffer Fired

“Globalists and Islamists recognize that for their visions to succeed, America, both as an ideal and as a national and political identity, must be destroyed,” the memo warns. It argues that this has led “Islamists [to] ally with cultural Marxists,” but that in the long run, “Islamists will co-opt the movement in its entirety.”
