I want to immigrate to someplace that's not a shit hole teetering on the brink. The culture is so fucking violent and geared towards crushing the human spirit, it really is a blight. Is there any place in the world that's halfway decent and isn't infected with burger brain disease? Especially if it's easy for an angloid simpleton such as myself to assimilate.

Edit: also trans friendly! Or at least not a danger zone like half the US.

I don't know how trans friendly it is, the city is sort of low violence and low animosity in general so it is hard to tell, but Shanghai seems okay.

If you want to assimilate you'd have to learn the language. But if you get stuck in the immigrant circles, very few of them are Americans, they all left after covid and won't come back.

I would love to go to China, but I'm not very good at picking up new languages and would stick out quite a bit as a 6'2" trans woman.

What place are you talking about?

I'm not the person you asked, but what foxontherocks said was:

I think it's safe to assume the whole comment is about Shanghai.

Don't know how I missed that, thanks!
