"Butt-Hurt"...? Not even close.

The Urban Dictionary defines “butt-hurt” as: “An inappropriately strong negative emotional response from a perceived personal insult.”

The right-wing trolls that voted for a septuagenarian degenerate real estate mogul use “butt-hurt” to describe the dismay, fear and anger over Trump’s, yet to be confirmed, election to the office of President of the United States. Those of us with a measure of common sense and decency, as well as a sense of history are not “butt-hurt”. 

People are not experiencing “An inappropriately strong negative emotional response from a perceived personal insult”. People are experiencing fear of their families being torn apart; fear of psychological and physical violence; fear that the last 60 years of social progress will be wiped out. There is also dismay and outrage at the prospect of a man so eminently unqualified in terms of training and temperament is about ready to squat in the Oval Office, surrounded and supported by racists, anti-Semites, Islamophobes, misogynists, religious extremists, homophobes and yes-men.

The trollish, arrogant, ignorant troglodytes that celebrate Trump as though he were the Second Coming of Christ, are using the term “butt-hurt” to diminish the outrage, anger and fear of millions of Americans over the consequences of this travesty of an election. An election which the old pervert that is their hero and savior lost, by 2.2 million and still counting, the popular vote. 

No, you great effing trolls…This is NOT “butt-hurt”. It is the outrage of every Hispanic and Muslim he has insulted; every woman he, and men like him, have assaulted. It is the fear of women who may find it impossible to secure birth control, never mind a safe, legal abortion. It is the anger and uncertainty of the LGBT community about Mike Pence and his raging homophobia and the uncertainty of whether the recent, hard won rights to have their unions recognized, will vanish. It is genuine, and very real concern that Trump will use the office of President to pad his, and those of his cronies and sycophants, pockets at the expense of everyone who works for a living. There is the very real threat that Trump, and a GOP dominating both the House and Senate will gut Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid like yesterday’s fish. 

No, this isn’t “butt-hurt”. It’s not “An inappropriately strong negative emotional response from a perceived personal insult.”. But every Trump-loving troll who says it, wishes it was.
