Maybe you’ll even get poorer and it’s safer and comfier to be poor in Denmark, for instance, than in the states? But yes, you’re right, it can seem impossible and I would be in a bit of a obfuscating panic if I were in that situation. I should’ve been a bit more thoughtful with my first comment, my bad.
You don’t like him because people e-fellate him? That can’t be on him. Sure, I understand if you want someone as popular and ‘on our side’ to be deeper, more intellectual, more politically engaged, but I won’t let perfect be the enemy of good. In a world of Ethans and Musk fanboys, Hasan is a breath of fresh air, and that is enough for me.
I’ve worked with people that came to Europe by boat and eventually regularised their situation here in France. I myself did 5 years in the FFL to secure my citizenship. It’s not supposed to be easy, but I guess you’re not desperate enough (which is great, means things aren’t that fugged yet and you can still plan ahead!). But I’m NGL, the situation can feel/is(?) very claustrophobic and unsolvable, I hope you find somewhere safe to be in whether that’s inside or outside the US.
NGL, you gotta be pretty brave (or naive, but I still thank you for your service 🙏) to openly talk about the immorality of the empire at a time it’s dramatically “tightening the screws”.
