What are these people really afraid of?

From social media, thought it was thought provoking:
I keep seeing people post on how they are terrified, or scared? Well.. what are you scared of exactly? War? Because that's happening. School shootings? Because that's happening. Pipeline? That's been happening. Terrorism? Definitely alive and well. Going broke due to health insurance? Mm yes. Corruption throughout the system? Already there. Police officers being murdered? Yep, that's happening. Bullying? Check. Loss of jobs? We've got that on lock. A tanking economy. Yep. Being discriminated against for your religion, political views, sexual orientation, race? That's been going on. Rape, murder, violence, riots.. all going on and has been.
I've seen people go as far as hate speech because "what will this do to the gay community?" Guess what.. you still get to be gay, you still get to be a boy, or a girl, or a boy girl, or if you self identify as a house you can still tell people you're a house. And that's not mockery, because apparently that's a real thing. I don't really care what you are, but what I do know is there are FAR bigger issues than this.
So tell me, what are you scared of that is not already happening basically everywhere? This isn't a Trump problem, this is a people problem. Y'all need to reevaluate your own selves..
Maybe America is a little too scared and a little too easily offended.
Quit being scared, crying around, offended by everything.. step up and do your part as an American, no, as a damn human being. Treat others with respect, help and encourage one another, raise your kids right, be a contributing member of society. Make sure your hands are clean, that's your job. Burning the American flag? Get out of here with that crap, how about you do your job to make it a better place.
But right now, all I see is hate. It's disturbing, and the ones with the most hate are being exactly what they claim to be against."
Personally, I think people are afraid of accountability.
"illegals out"
" Law and order"
and he tears apart political correctness
for example, "if you're being nasty, you get called a nasty person"
If you're a Muslim refugee, you will receive extreme vetting
from the United States government.

That perhaps 'The End of History' is not quite as a dialectical certainty as they had hoped.

Well said. I dont get it either. They claim his campaign was built on hate, yet they are the ones full of hate right now.
The sun came up. We are all still here.

Bravo - you have lots of solid points throughout:
I believe that the underlined portion is at the core of much of what we see. "I know I am doing stuff that goes against traditional and core values, but I don't want anyone to hold me accountable. So I won't risk calling someone else out on anything for fear it might rebound on me."

They're not terrified of anything. They are just little pussies who want to vent like the children they are. It's more about attention than anything. Remember, they are sooooo oppressed.

To help you understand a little, I will take the campaign promise of getting all of the illegals out of the country. This would really require a vast expansion of the federal police infrastructure waaaay beyond what we currently have. The 24/7 surveillance of Muslim and immigrant communities will require the same.
So if the federal government under Trump creates a significantly larger and more powerful armed enforcement force, folks have real questions about what exactly this force will be allowed to do and what powers it will have.
Any such federalized police force will have to have the power to go out and capture all of these millions of people who live and work among us who are suspected of being illegal. Will these people's possessions and homes be forfeited or taken? Will they be allowed to sell their belongings or take them with them? Will these millions of people be held in custody somewhere while their deportation due process is pending? One may suspect someone of being illegal, but proving it is not so easy as saying that they speak Spanish. What if they say they were born in Indiana to a midwife in a farm worker shack and have no birth certificate? Some sort of due process will have to exist. That will mean that we will need more prisons or interment camps.
Once the suspected illegals have been rounded up and sent to camps awaiting deportation, what will the federalized force do then? What will Trump want them to do? What will the next President want them to do?
This isn't fantasy. There is really no other way to carry this out.

They're snowflakes...creations of liberal groupthink.
They don't realize how good Trump will actually be for America.

I believe Trump supporters just want something done to stop illegal immigration.
what is done is done, how to deal with a complicated issue is very difficult and why nothing has ever been done.
Trump said what many have thought
