Like what with all the fascism going on, Trump teasing a third term, and even now passing a law to be able to deport U.S. Citizens. I can’t imagine people taking these threats lightly. So basically, how are you holding up?

    Im desperately trying to leave, I dont know where to go tbh. Germany seems like the best option but the AFD scares me, Britain is also an option but Reform is also scary. The world is a very dark place rn for people like me.

      Sydney or Melbourne, Australia are pretty accepting. Not without problems but I reckon they’d be good choices if you can meet the visa requirements and get a job.

      Just this morning, the AFD was categorized as a right-wing extremist organization by our Office for Constitutional Protection, which is step one in outlawing the party outright. What scares me is the lack of political will in the new ruling coalition to take that next step. IMO the current frontrunner, CDU, will lose the next election, leaving the door open to the AFD if they aren’t stopped.

        The AFD needs to be banned completely, imo the only hope left for Germany lies with Die Linke.

        I dont have much hope, Canadian democracy only bearly survived. What happens if Carney is another inefficient Liberal and the CPC wins? Or even worse if Carney is too efficient and Trump invades? Granted one, both, or neither could happen but thats my point, we live in extremely uncertain times.

          oh yeah no the last Canadian election was scary, but that can be true for basically any country. same thing for invasions. but i get what you mean.

          i just feel this is one of those things your just going to have to weigh your pros and cons. one good thing about Canada the culture shift won’t be as drastic, of course if your good at adjusting that won’t really matter.

            It is something im strongly considering still, I can only hope Canada remains as a country and is willing to accept American immigrants.
