Are you depressingly sad now that the election is over? Do you fear a Trump administration because you believe the fear-mongering Leftist media? If so, join your brothers and sisters in their safety pin protest.

According to the Daily Mail,

 . . . as stories of post-election racism and violence continue to be shared online, some have started wearing safety pins to show solidarity with groups who feel marginalized. The small but powerful symbol is a way for many to essentially take a stand against racism, sexism and xenophobia.

Wearing a safety pin signals you are friendly to those feeling disenfranchised by the election outcome. You are sending the message that those threatened by the notions of xenophobia, racism, sexism, and ableism are safe with you.

Or, in reality, perhaps you are indicating that you are one of those who need a safe space, one who can't deal with the imaginary boogymen Trump supposedly has unleashed throughout the country. Perhaps you fall into the special snowflake category and need these pins to secure the perpetual diapers you wear. If so, be careful about those pins that can come undone under pressure.
