I Left When America Went Full Handmaid's Tale After Trump's Win. AI-Generated.
America didn’t lose me in a comment thread; it lost me in a living room. The night Donald Trump won again, the TV was doing that grotesque victory glow, anchors talking about “unity” with the same tone they use for hurricane coverage. Somewhere between the red counties and the sanctimonious calls to “heal,” it hit me: the country had gone full Handmaid’s Tale and still insisted on calling it democracy.
