Racist people dosen't always mean racist systems and principalities.

So many mixed feelings.

It's less of an option for me and my ilk because of language barrier. But Americans' inability to speak the various languages of Europe are a personal failing on the part of basically all Americans; our "education" system made us dependent, and our arrogance made us unwilling to accept both that we are stupid and that it is incumbent upon us to fix our own stupidity.

And now that I can't afford groceries, medical care, AND utility bills at the same time, I neither have the time to learn a new language nor the mental space to do so.

Maybe it's for the best that Americans can't just casually flee to Europe. Europe is already struggling to suppress a resurgence of fascism even WITHOUT a massive influx of braindead center-right neoliberal mouth-breathers from Jesusland.

Well the lack of second language is not just a usa. In other mostly English as a first language countries you have the lowest rates of bilingualism
