Download and install a torrent client. I use Qbittorrent. Start downloading the files from a torrent or direct link. Torrents can be much faster for downloading mass data, if there are a lot of people seeding. Once you have it downloaded, keep the torrent client running. You will seed automatically to others downloading.
That's at least a stance I can admire. Keep yourself and your loved ones safe. And if it comes to it, you show those fascists what hell looks like when it wears the skin of a gentle human.
Are you really waiting to be spoon fed? I never said everything would be gravy. I said if I was honestly certain I was going to die by staying in my state, I'd fucking leave NOW without waiting for jack shit. Everyone is going to have their own support and ways of surviving, and that's something to think about only AFTER I'm in a safe location. This is still going to be difficult, and you'll still have to actually think for yourself. But at least you won't be actively hunted anymore.
"Cannot leave?" My brother in Christ. If I honestly thought that my life was genuinely in danger of a violent end, should I remain where I am, I'd leave without hesitation. It costs nothing to get in your car and drive until you are across state lines RIGHT NOW, this very instant. I wouldn't worry about selling my house, closing escrow (or trying to communicate or formalize anything with a landlord, were I renting), "getting my affairs in order", or whatever else. I would first load up my car and then GTFO right goddamn NOW while I still draw breath. Yes, it'd be a hassle having to deal with those loose ends later, but my first priority would be my own self-preservation.
My heart goes out to the rational minority in the red states. My advice to them is to leave while they can, however they can. This very well could be a matter of life and death.

Yeah, glad we had that confirmed by the experts. We clearly wouldn't have been able to tell otherwise. /s
