A trans Kansas resident recently changed her name but not her gender marker on her license, fearing what Kansas may do if she did. The Kansas DMV still flagged her ID.

Or stay in place and fight? I mean I’m an American abroad so I get leaving, but there are different strategies depending on one’s situation. (What race, gender, family or no family, finances, personal age and strength etc)

Staying and fighting is all well and good, but we're not talking about standing your ground in a home invasion we're talking about 20 masked goons throwing you into the back of an unmarked van while you load groceries into your car.

Also I'm pretty sure the trump administration is hoping for 1 good armed resistance against them so they can declare a state of emergency and cancel elections.

I do what I can from where I am, and there are other battles than that one.

The majoriry should be fighting to protect the vulnerable minority. The minority alone doesn't stand much of a chance against the might of the state.

But as that doesn't seem to be happening, at least not in sufficient numbers, the second best thing would be to leave and become a refugee.

The alternative is fighting alone, failing, and being genocided anyway.
