Regarding fleeing, https://transrescue.org/post-election-assistance-to-the-usa https://transrescue.org/post-election-assistance-to-the-usa has some concrete advice.
Fleeing makes sense for people at most risk of persecution (e.g. trans people, Jews, those who speak out), but many people are prevented from fleeing by their consciences. They have to stay and fight. See e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_Resistance#Factions https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_Resistance#Factions
- tialaramex 1y agoI certainly don't want to condemn the choice to stay and fight. What I can tell you is that many people aren't brave enough to fight, but fleeing is much more possible. If you feel you must fight, you should absolutely do that, but if you can't summon that bravery you should flee, don't allow yourself to become a victim. If your home is on fire, some people will bravely stay and fight the fire, but the instruction we give everybody is to flee, you can get another home, but if you die there's nothing to be done about it, so better flee.

- senordevnyc 1y agoI have kids. When it’s time to flee, we’ll flee, and I could give two dry fucks what some rando thinks about whether I’m going to “contribute to the culture” of whatever country will have us.
