I never thought I'd ever cry over election results in another country. Yet, here I am. But this also makes me feel a bit weird. Why didn't I cry for {country} when people came in power who would take people's rights away and endanger many of its own citizens, and cause havoc internationally? I guess cause it's easier to empathize with people you encounter often. My online life is filled with Americans, and I'm gutted by what's happening in their country.
