If I hadn't left the US long ago I would definitely be packing my bags and leaving now. I'm amazed anybody stays under such corruption as every good institution crumbles into an authoritarian double-speak mockery of all that is good. Also I think the BRICS will eventually overthrow the US. Don't take solace that the US spends 10x on military as anybody else -- they don't get their money's worth: https://archive.org/details/pentagoncatalogo0000cerf Even the allies of the USA secretly resent it's control over them and will likely shift away from her when she starts to sink. The USA was founded on the right principles of freedom and liberty and human rights with Montesque's checks and balances, but it has operationally lost every single one of these to corruption. The Justice System is political. The FBI is political. The CIA was always political. The CDC is political. They all serve those in power who year by year hide less of their corruption and apparently don't care that you see it anymore because their stranglehold is so tight. Even in the best of times the military never defended the people, it's job is to defend the government, the government of scum. The deceivers have even deceived themselves into believing there is good where none remains, so they can lie more effectively. You don't deserve to fall down with her.
Your best chance if you stay is with Texas which may secede and rebuff the rest, or else go to war with the rest.
I'm not a religious man, but some of you are. "Come out of her, my people! Run for your lives! Run from the fierce anger of the LORD."
[I was going to make political posts from a different account but it's too much trouble. Just ignore content you don't like.]
I don't disagree with most of your points, but what country is better? A favorite author of mine wrote "we are the least sick patient in the cancer ward." At least we still have arms here albeit neutered a bit. I live as free as I can and try to do what I can to promote freedom.
Oh, and you know damn right I live in Texas.
Any place with good neighbors is a good place if you can hunker down. When I left, I left San Francisco. That city is wonderful, except for the large number of far-left people ready to walk off a cliff together and who are driven by hate.
So I left the US mostly to leave San Francisco, I didn't have to come this far. But I don't regret it.
Places like New Zealand sound just as bad from the outside news, and knowing there is no hard and fast constitution to protect you isn't that great. But what matters most are the people, especially those people close by, if you align with them well enough, can work with them, if they are good people. I found good people here, so even in hard times like COVID lockdown we help each other out.
So I guess my call for people to leave the US was overboard. It's not necessary. I was just wound up.
Wow, yes I can understand getting as far away from SF as possible. Not sure you could get any farther!
I am fortunate in being born in Texas and surrounded by good family and community.
I have been angry enough to start researching other countries and I can't find anything better. The woke mind virus is global now, you cannot run from it. May as well take a stand here.
