Hello, all! Longtime lurker on Reddit and now on Lemmy. I’ve tried looking into getting out of the US as things aren’t looking too great as I’m sure many of you know, but wanted some tips from those of us who have gotten out. Where did you decide to move to, and what were the things you looked at when deciding to move there? How did you go about the process? What are some stories you can tell about the immigration process? Where can I start? How can I realistically make it happen? I hope this isn’t silly to you all, as it matters quite a lot to me and I’m genuinely interested in getting away from here for good. Thank you all for your time!
Not from US, but why do you wanna move out of US?
I’m guessing it’s politics. Our “religious conservatives” feel they can force women to have babies against their express desires while limiting birth control, sex education, and free school lunches.
It’s a party dominated by rich old white men who can’t rule over slaves anymore so they are going after all minorities and women.
Thank you. Do you also feel insane watching this shit? Enough is enough. I want out.
I mean, they are losing for the most part. The issue is the Supreme Court right now… Fix that, and we’re not doing too bad.
Hey, hey, don’t forget the poors!
We have a “two” party system that is slowly getting harder and harder to differentiate between the “two”. On one hand, we have a side that tells you sweet little lies that they never intend to actually keep to. The other is just using every dirty trick in the book to ruin what rights we did have, to make life harder for all but the wealthy, and generally fuck the people over for profits. It’s insane, and I feel insane having to sit here and watch as the “two” parties debate on wether or not children deserve provided meals, at a place they are legally required to be at. I do not want to be held hostage by my own “government” any longer. Enough is enough.
You’ve described both parties with both sentences.
Indeed. And “two” is in quotations to further drill that point. On stage, one side will at least lie to your face. The other just doesn’t give a fuck and will tell you they’re going to take your rights away.
Actually, they’ll tell you they’re going to take someone else’s rights away and make you so hateful towards that group of people that you’ll gladly give up your own rights just to take away theirs.
