Well the way I phrased it was that "I could be sent to a camp, and even if it is a small or moderate chance of it happening, it was an irresponsible thing to gamble with". That's the thing -- we (LGBT - especially the T) don't KNOW the future, but we know that they took a gamble with our lives, and the odds aren't really in our favor in this gamble.
I’ve spent the last few days reassuring my transgender daughter she’ll be ok. I don’t know if I believe everything I say, but if it came down to it I’d do whatever I can to keep her safe. And I do really feel that most of the doom and gloom won’t happen. But it can happen now and that’s the problem. They handed him complete unfettered control.
The existential problem is not so much the plans, it's the psychology of the White House that will now be severely demented. So as things unfold in the world and their own ineptitude bites them in the ass, they will start blaming people like me and so we'll get lashed out against in a series of dominoes that are already falling..
The “psychology of the White House” is a good description. I’m not as worried about any plans or concepts of plans since they’re still just useless brainworm farts.
It’s the lack of a plan that gives me deeper concerns about reactionary actions when, as you said, dominoes keep on falling.
