Here are some examples that come to mind:

  • Having enough food/water/essentials to make it through 3 days without electricity or gas (like what was recommend in Europe recently)
  • having a plan of how you'll to keep in contact and meet with people you care about if there's no internet or cell service
  • making sure whatever social media you use to voice dissent cannot be easily linked to your identity via email, photos, location data, etc.

Basically the same sort of disaster preparedness you would have normally, except the last bullet point

Even if the probability is less than 100% it is a good idea to prepare while there's still time to do so. Its not about paralysis, its about emergency preparedness and taking necessary precautions.

It's a slippery slope. One day you see a boob on a flag and next thing you know, they'll be humping flagpoles.

At some point, the vetting process will end up being more time consuming than actively moderating the instance, it will still not be 100% effective.

That point has already been crossed for most consumers. The administration is just blissfully unaware

The image looks AI generated. Zoom in on the smaller text of the shirt. The A and E characters look off

I don't doubt that bad things are happening at CECOT, but I need more credible evidence than a blurry image from google maps before jumping to conclusions.
