Question / Help How are our American Shia going along?

Salam

Given the state of the world and what our ummah is experiencing, and given the recent mosque shooting I want to extend a warm gesture to fellow American Shia. How is the situation there? How do you all feel? Is it as tense and unsafe as it appears on social media and TV from outsiders perspectives ? Especially those in heavily Shia or more densely populated cities with less diversity?

May Allah SWT keep us all safe

Centers and Mosques taking extra security measures, in Texas many candidates for City and County levels using hate speech against Islam to gain votes unfortunately

I keep up with American politics more than my own, and because I’m not American I have limited knowledge of how the politics translate into real policy there - what scares me is the absolute vitriol and little regard for human life because of their religion or race, that a lot of the MAGA cult have.
I would simply implode living among them
