#classhatcomplains

So I'm in the process of writing a paper on engineering field comparisons and their relation to my goals and interests as a student.

The first question I was asked in the prompt was

"How do/did you know that [type of] Engineering was for you?"

I feel like I could write one sentence about my interest in Civil Engineering it would be enough.

Normally, I try to keep Classhattery’s content separate from political bullshit, mostly because this is a humor blog. --- That being said, however, today I’ve made an exception. I was recently told by someone that they “…don’t understand all the Trump hate.” The reasoning behind this that I was given was “How could people hope for the failure of a guy leading our country.” First of all, I understand that people can be legitimately in the dark or uninformed on an issue. I understand that, and going forward, if you legitimately aren’t versed with american politics, please inform yourself. This post is not for you. That being said, if you are an American, you cannot be ignorant towards the person who is literally running our country. It is our civic duty, literally, to care. Secondly, that man is not my leader, and is not “leading” this country. Every second that he is in office he is hurting this country. Hurting its laws, it’s infrastructure, its international relations, and its people.

The AHCA, spearheaded by the Republican party, would run the risk of killing - literally killing - three of my family members and my significant other. If you want to explain why people hate Trump and the GOP, this is one reason out of hundreds.  People are fearing for their lives, and the lives of ones they love.

 I’m 18. If we start a war, I get drafted. If we take defund transportation, I lose my job prospects. If we budget cut the Federal Government, I lose my college tuition assistance. If the government fucks up, which it is currently doing, I am fucked too. People are fearful of what’s to come, or what could come.

If that isn’t enough for you, here’s a list of over fifty reasons why he’s a bad president, compiled by our friends over at Reddit’s r/esist: A Compiled [List]

I’m scared for my family ...my friends ...my loved ones ...for the future of the country I live in.

“This is [name] from [university] emailing you to let you know that the application deadline has been postponed again, for your convenience.“

I swear that some colleges and universities cannot take the hint about when it’s time to stop advertising.

Like, I finished my last college application in December and you’re still trying to tell me to apply three fucking weeks after I confirmed with another university. Chill.

I know I can block them, but it leaves me unfulfilled knowing they'll target other people.
