      It’s easy to say that from a position of privilege. Unfortunately for a large chunk of the population, life is not the same.

      I’m not accusing you of anything, you had no control over who you were born as. Just explaining as a reminder.

        Not to mention, it’s easy to say that before Inauguration Day. None of Trump’s tyranny has had a chance to happen yet.

      It’s just kind of interesting to be asking the red states about this. Red states were already living in that kind of environment. I feel like it’s the blue states that people should be asking this question to. I live in a red state. I hate the politics here but life isn’t too much different than when I lived in a blue state. I am privileged to be cis tho, so I’d imagine if I were trans I would be terrified. I mean, I’m still a bit scared, but I am a bit of a lucky individual.
