I know it’s no consolation, but not all of us down here are shit-bags. I am the son of an immigrant, I speak a few languages, have traveled around the world several times. I’ve always been keenly aware of how awful the United States are. It’s always been a point of embarrassment for me. Over the last 10 years, though, I’ve had to come to terms with leaving.
It’s hard to just give up a whole life. I have friends, a community, family, and belongings that I will have to choose to leave behind.
But I’m unhappy here.
Just know that while it’s easy to say “all Americans can fuck off,” and largely I am on board with that, those of us who want change can’t seem to find a way to make it happen. Voting failed us majorly twice. I’m not fully convinced that the tech sector didn’t help usher this asshole into power.

They absolutely did. There is no question. Peter Thiel especially.
Yep. He’s the boogeyman that the Right always say that George Soros is. It’s always projection with those assholes.

George Soros is also an awful bastard. But for different reasons.
Pretty much every ultra rich guy is a huge piece of shit.
Agreed. Just using him as an example.
