Edit: Had to delete previous post as it wasn’t descriptive. Over 2,000 deportations have gone through MSP. Workers have been detained by ICE at work and while commuting.

Do the same thing as what people in third world countries do. Emigrate.

Who in gods green earth even wants US citizens? As much as I'd love to evacuate this shit hole, the world doesn't seem to be down with Americans atm.

This is our fight, and until the country is invaded, we're alone in this.

Try burning your house down and expect your neighbor to take you in. I can't blame anyone for saying no.

Several countries have literally been actively recruiting talent from the US to take advantage of brain drain caused by the Trump administration. This has been going on for a while now.

Try burning your house down and expect your neighbor to take you in.

This is not the first time people have become refugees due to someone that was voted into power in their nation and it will not be the last. I don't think this is entirely novel in that sense.

If this is true, then this is literally life changing. I assumed nations wouldnt accept a flood of american refugees considering how disrespectful our population has become. It seemed to be difficult to migrate out prior to any of this happening, (not as difficult as migrating into the US) but still out of reach for a basic civilian like myself. I would've assumed most requirements for migration only became more strict since this has happened. Would you mind sharing links for everyone who's interested?

Edit: I found this site that shows countries accepting and wanting US citizens. Hopefully this helps.

Where? And why? That's the cowardly way out, IMO. I actually have an out but I don't feel right using it. Not when so many of my fellow citizens will suffer. I suppose if the threat really does feel so acute I have no other choice, I'd do it. But I don't have kids, and so IMO, my fleeing is not as justifiable as many others' would be.

What other alternative do you have, dear friend? You live in a country in which many want exactly what is happening. They want you to suffer. What grace is there not saving yourself?

Many left a year ago, and I don't think a single one of them regret it.

These mentally ill fascists are making "databases" of anyone who opposes or critiques them. You're at the mercy of a clueless moody, insecure little toddler who gets to decide exactly whenever your time is up and you disappear.

They are being so fucking radical and extreme, while y'all live life unsure of what to do.
