I can't really imagine danger being particularly extreme for anyone other than trans people, for trans folk updating passports is likely a good idea. But keep in mind that blue states would still be relatively safe.

If shit truly gets to the point where it's death squads and fascist street gangs, realistically there would not be anywhere in the world that would be safe.

“Blue states” are states with notable swaths of intolerant people spread out over the majority of the state, with a lot of tolerant people and allies condensed into cities.

Really? Other groups besides trans people certainly have a lot to fear in my state: I can predict immigrants, Black people, Native Americans, gay people, non-Christians, and anyone who positions themselves as allies, off the top of my head.

Not sure where you live, but the fascism is feeling pretty full-blown around my parts lately.

What can a straight, white guy do to prepare?

Rat out your neighbors to the police.

Well, since the police would be on it like maybe the national guard?

I don't know, just be prepared to cap somebody in the name of equality.

Same thing. Be vigilant. Prepare for what's going to go down.

Be straighter and whiter, I guess
