    The optimistic side of me would say that people under 30 or so have a strong critical mass of people with decent views on stuff. Which doesn't necessarily prevent this shit, per se. But I imagine you'd be as safe sheltering with a bunch of college kids in Brooklyn as you'd be in Iceland or whatever. And I think there are even plenty of middle age libs and neolibs who will go to great lengths to protect you, if only to deal with their own guilt or savior complex or whatever. Taking in Afghan refugees was all the rage earlier this year. It's lib shit, obviously. But it gives me a reason to be optimistic that people would keep you safe / offer you shelter, even if it's just because they want to virtue signal.

    Not trying to invalidate or anything. More just reassure that there are people potentially nearer to you and easier to get to who would protect you.
