I’m in the US right now, wouldn’t be fun to get deanonymized.
Edit: Note to Mods: this is about legal issues and civil rights infringement, so its not really “political”, but I’ve hidden it in a spoiler tag so people don’t have to read it if they don’t want to.

I’m a non-US-born American, and probably wouldn’t be dissenting online if I were a non-citizen. And even so, I’m using Tor right now.
I already accounted for like the 50% chance that NSA has deanonymized me so I make sure to not make any actual threats. So yea even tho I’m dissenting, I have waterered-down what I really mesnt to say so my words are still supposedly legal (mostly do this so that I win the “court of public opinion” if I do get arrested). Like if I get arrested for a “trump loves to suck dick” comment, I’ll be famous on the news especially considering Mahmoud Khakil is a Muslim Greencard holder that got so much good press and its only because they managed to villianize Palestine, while I’m a Citizen and I fit into the “model minority” stereotype so its much harder to paint a negative picture about me.
Like the headline looks like: “Anti-CCP ethnic Chinese, American Citizen, whom the CCP tried to prevent the birth of under the One Child Policy, arrested for criticizing dictatorships and excersicing freedom of speech”. Yea legally I can get very fucked, but I’ll make a great news article. I’m okay with dying if it mean I got a wikipedia page for it lol.
I guess I could get very fucked if they actually start to prosecute online comments, but then again there’s like millions of anti-trump comments they have no room to fit everyone in concentrstion camps, unless they pull off a “Tiananmen”.
If Americans really let this trump version of Tiananmen happen, then I probably wouldn’t have enjoyed what comes afterwards anyways so I might be better off just dying.
