I try not to let this shit get to me. It's always darkest before the dawn and all that, but damn.

The general population is so fucking broken. They're just absolutely mind fucked from being raised on a steady diet of right-wing propaganda from all major Western parties.

How do you even begin to fix all of this. I feel like I'm drowning and being pushed under by my own damn species. We are all so sick.

Fwiw youre helping by not being another lib whos just gonna run away to bluesky.

Or claim they are gonna run away to another western country on the brink of fascism…

That’s mostly what I’ve been seeing at least. Almost immediately my lib friends started talking about how places to move. One of them said southern France… fucking goofy as fuck.

As if Europe isn't just going to play copycat

Honestly if Drumpf gets Europeans to go home and get off settled land... critical support lol. Unfortunately I think Canada is the more popular option

I always find it funny whenever Canada is mentioned in these discussions when this country is going to go full right in the general elections next year along with plethora of issues that are also present in the states.

Yeah, that is another one I’ve been hearing a lot, as if Canada wants them or isn’t falling apart in the same way as the US.

It's so funny because these people know so little about a country that literally just does nearly everything we do they can't even imagine that might extend to their political structures

I heard a co-worker say they wanted to run away from Trump to Germany. Absolutely zero sense

Telling on themselves a little bit there.

Or when they talk about moving the global south it's all about being a "digital nomad ' and earning foreign currency (in Euros, US dollars or Pounds), while living in in the global south. Basically gentrification on an international scale, making housing and goods unaffordable for the people that were actually born there. Look at what is happening to Cape Town, and the Western Cape as a whole, in South Africa.

Yeah I heard someone mention Chile because they have vacationed there in the past and liked it lol. Absolutely deluded people…
