    I mean yeah, but it’s not always possible for someone to move, especially in the short term. Maybe it’s too expensive or they can’t sell their house. This could be a good survival strategy in the meantime

      That’s true in some sense, but again, there are Jews who survived Nazi Germany only by leaving with nothing but the clothes on their backs. We’re not there yet obviously, but with the direction of things, a bit of hustle is probably warranted, whether or not it’s economically advantageous. And I hate that it just makes these places drift further into fascism when decent moral people flee, but I think people need to really open their eyes to what the stakes are here.
