Stay strong people! We Most of us* survived the last Trump presidency, we got this.
Gaza won’t survive. Ukraine likely won’t survive.
American democracy’s survival is questionable at best.
I’m not saying ‘give up’. But we also have to recognize the magnitude of the impact this election is going to have. And many people who stay here despite everything are going to have their lives at risk.
I love the assumption that other countries would just take American emigrants.
It’s a shit ton harder than people realize… well at least to go anywhere in the industrialized world. Unless you are independently wealthy or have an extremely high demand job.
Billy Bob who’s career is working at McDonalds isn’t going to get approved.
have an extremely high demand job.
I’m banking on this actually. My specialties are, and my wife’s is as well. So I’m reaching out to companies I know with a presence to see what my options are where I’d like to go, and decide from there. I doubt we will be the only ones though, so we’ll see what that ends up looking like.
The only up side is I’m in a very niche specialty with broad experience, have contacts on both sides of the work I do.
I think I’m in a better position than most, and I still think its going to be an uphill battle.
Immigration in most developed countries is stricter than the US. And we all know the US’s immigration restrictions are insane.
It’s not much better over here anyways, anti trans laws and oil industry dick sucking is ramping up more than ever.
Canada’s gonna swing the same way next year so you’re not really escaping from anything anyways
Already swung super anti-immigration as of earlier this year, so the move to Canada plan isn’t going to be as easy either
Yeah the Trump win is only gonna help conservatives…I really hate them and their leader, but Trudeau has shit the bed for so long that people are just sick of him
The Liberals are admittedly a stale 3 day old cheap deli sandwich. People want something warm, fresh, and organic. Conservatives check all of those boxes.
Too bad it’s horseshit.
Skippy will axe the carbon tax which honestly will make people like him enough to ignore some of the… other things he will do. That will lower prices of everything, maybe not to the levels of the beforetime because corpos won’t let that free profit disappear but it will make life easier for many.
Do you think that this is an import from the US kind of thing, or more of a global trend?
