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.

Thanks for the input, that's really interesting! Unfortunately I would stick out terribly in Japan as I'm pasty white and 6'2". I've heard from some trans women that they had okay experiences there. They'd get clocked but it wasn't any agro attitudes, just like 'oh hi trans person' type of attitude. I would honestly love to move to Mexico or Cuba, but I have issues with heat tolerance and I've had a few heat injuries.

How the heck do you manage living in different countries like that?

I actually met a pasty 6’+ trans woman there and she had very positive impressions of the country, of course ymmv. The heat might be more of in issue in Japan than Mexico though, 90+ with high humidity well into September in Tokyo while Mexico City was low 80s in April/June.

I work in the spreadsheet factory but have been fully remote for almost 3 years, lost the only reason I had for staying in the US so I’ve become one of those gentrifying digital nomads
