I have a decade old associates, and was earning a bachelors in Russian, but I'm considering going to a trade school to learn something like machining, or welding. I want to ensure a marketable skill and future for myself in the face of not being able to work somewhere because of my refusal to attend marxist re-education university, wear a mask, get vaccinated etc. However that excludes alot of career options for me. I can't be alone in this, so what did you all do? Is it possible to work full time while doing this?

This is quite true. Major firms I am familiar with have started hiring a number of people who once would have been called "draftsmen" without a bit of college if they have learned enough to handle the 3D modeling needs of the engineers. Student versions of AutoDesk Inventor are available and there are plenty of tutorials online. You can get really good spending an hour a day for a year. Student loan debt=0, interest to bankers also 0.
