        Gays have a year or two before they are swept into the camps I think. First on the list will be immigrants and trans people in red states. That phase will begin in January. That will take 18 months at least. If they are as incompetent as they’ve been in the past, this phase could take the entire four years until his 3rd term.

            I think people who can pretend to be cis, straight white conservative christians have the highest chance of long-term survival in red states.

              Great now people need to go to church and hang out with those two faced grifters. Paying 10% to blend in.

                Most “Christians” have never even cracked open a bible, much less stepped foot into a church. Lie about it. Remember, you’re a Christian now so you’re forgiven. If you don’t sin, then JJ died for no reason.

                  I get the feeling that when neighbors turn on each other not going to a church is going to be on the lost. Certainly lower than trans and LGBT folks but it will be there.

                    You may be right. But church people can be nosy and judgy. It’s not a safe place to be repeatedly visiting in my opinion.

            Not after fascists fill the ranks of the NSA and mass-surveillance state apparatus. I guarantee that if you’re a teenager they have already captured enough data about you to reliably predict who’s liberal, gay, trans, etc with a very high degree of accuracy; doesn’t really matter though, as fascism will treat every false positive with extreme prejudice anyway.

            Only the kids who go on the offensive and proactively blend in with fascism will remain hidden, if they keep it to themselves and avoid typing it into a phone or computer.

      Hey, I know it’s disappointing and inadequate, but no one who fought for you yesterday has forsaken you today. Good luck, friend.

        I don’t think they can protect me. My family has been uprooted before thanks to war. I can’t sleep tonight. I dk what to do. I don’t understand why I have so many challenges this year. I’m starting to feel darker thoughts again. I struggled so much in the past and here we go again.

          Seasons pass. In two years we will begin to undo what was set in motion today. We survived him before. We will survive him again. Somehow.

              I don’t know, man. I’m trying to hang on here myself. Get some sleep and some perspective. Survive one day at a time. That’s how I got through his first four years.

              And I might just withdraw from social media and news. I’m not sure I’m going to want to know what happens over the next four years.

                  All folks I have in my life. But then, I’m getting up there. I’ve definitely lived through more hostile times toward them. But I really hoped my kids wouldn’t have to.
