Here are some examples that come to mind:

  • Having enough food/water/essentials to make it through 3 days without electricity or gas (like what was recommend in Europe recently)
  • having a plan of how you'll to keep in contact and meet with people you care about if there's no internet or cell service
  • making sure whatever social media you use to voice dissent cannot be easily linked to your identity via email, photos, location data, etc.

Basically the same sort of disaster preparedness you would have normally, except the last bullet point

At some point, the vetting process will end up being more time consuming than actively moderating the instance, it will still not be 100% effective.

I wouldn't expect a person peddling snake oil to understand or care that autism is a spectrum
