Never.
The people with the guns feel like discrimination is when people ostracize them for being bigoted as fuck.
The people without the guns have been baked mentally into not only thinking violence is not the answer, but strikes, civil disobedience, or even mentioning politics """at the wrong time""" are not answers as well.
This will go to its logical conclusion of trump having absolute control, no one fighting back, people ending up in death camps, and all that will matter to the rest of us at that point is whether or not we can convince the US to keep it within their borders (they won't, and Im not sure what happens there, but I am afraid).
Fascism requires an out group, and once they've killed or subjugated all their black and brown people (a huuuge chunk of their population), they'll find some other group to attack.
I think a huge part of the problem is that us, marginalized groups, we can't fucking agree to band together. LGBTQ2S+ will have crazy things like ostracizing bisexuals, or like being prejudice towards black people. Black people return the favour as they have Latino people who are prejudiced against them and other latino people. Heck there are various groups of black people who are prejudiced against other groups of black people (Though I'd do black people a disservice to leave out that they are by far the group who voted most strongly against trump).
When you look at crazy shit like the numbers of Cubans who support trump, its because just like all of his other voters, their single voter issue is that they hate some other demographic of people more than they care about any other subject. That is how they were able to ignore the red flags.
Until marginalized people realize that the strength they have in numbers can indeed not find some magical compromise that excludes the specific group of people they hate, there is no way they'll have any noteworthy resistance, and this is as the regime consolidates more power and removes more and more of them from their ranks such that they won't be sabotaged from within.
