Frank Chow: Asian- American Political Pundit

My response to a social network, unnamed, that I don't want to post to out of shear rage. Context: A person stated "economic woes" were why people voted for Trump. I sent this clear article countering the STUPID REPEATED ARGUMENT.  https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2017/5/9/15592634/trump-clinton-racism-economy-prri-survey Then the individual dropped the "identity politics" argument and the "not ALL are deplorable, quit demonizing." Followed by "policies that are supported by all that effect change must be bipartisan." Shudder, I do declare! What I didn't say: Identity politics is a convenient term for people of privilege. Change will not come by capitulating to a side that chooses racism, xenophobia and party over country. You either face the actual problems facing this nation or never see real change. Like how is this difficult? "Demonize?" They are deplorable. I'm sorry if someone stating the fact tha...

Last night and today on Twitter I went through all the stages of grief. You can see my reaction there . At this moment the KKK is marching in celebration of Trump's win. Over 50 million people hate me, my friends and my family; it's beyond comprehension. I always warned about the alt-right and the deep seeded racism in this country. Never would've thought we'd be here today. I'm scared ya'll. I'm not sure if I'll ever love America the way I once did. My heart is broken. My mind is exhausted. My eyes are tired. And it's now sunk in that America was never great, we just said it enough that we believed it. I'm gonna need time to process this. I am Frank Chow and fuck this message

We realize, we're really going to miss this man and his presidency. This is why @realDonaldTrump freaked out today lol pic.twitter.com/DjMOHTNY3c — (((Maggy))) (@Maggyw519) October 13, 2016 I am Frank Chow and I approved this message

Music. This album seems to be shaping up nicely and this song happens to be my favorite thus far. I don't care to write a long post about Kaepernick, Trump, Hillary and whatever. Bon Iver makes me think creatively, I'm gonna stay on course. Enjoy. I am Frank Chow and I approved this message.

Devastating : The deadliest mass shooting in American history took place Sunday morning when a gunman opened fire at a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida, killing 49 people and injuring 53 others. Police fatally shot the suspect. Orlando Police have so far identified 48 victims and notified the next of kin of 33 of them, they said at a press conference Monday morning. Their mission throughout Monday is to continue briefing all next of kin, said Danny Banks of the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. I keep thinking back to when I lived in Chicago. My friends were diverse, free-spirited, some gay, some straight, some bi, some queer, and some were still figuring it all out. We were young and Boystown in Chicago was a common place for everyone to meet, dance, drink and be ourselves. I can't even count how many times we were in a gay club or bar. It was part of our circle and for my LGBT friends, they felt safe to be themselves. I kept replaying those days in my head last...

I'm just gonna leave this right here.

The parties are so much not the same . I am Frank Chow and I approved this message
