Kind of short sighted only consider social cancellation. People in power change, laws get applied retroactively. History is full of people who get purged from stuff that was fine when it was written

If you’re honestly worried about purges, you need to be gathering allies and armaments, not worrying about your HN posts.

  • People are being rejected at the US border due to saying things online that the current administration doesn't like and the they are already claiming to add peaceful protesters to domestic terrorist lists.

    Do you think the current and future administrations won't go further? This very comment might get me on a list.

    My commenting _is_ gathering allies and armaments by voicing dissent and being one more raindrop that will hopefully lead to a flood of change and improvement.
