7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description.

🙋♂️ I left in 2025. It's great! Walkable and bikeable cities, affordable groceries, my health insurance actually pays for stuff, there's public transit, the food is safer, and not absolutely every I do funnels into only 12 companies.
I moved my family. When my kid needs higher education, it won't cost more than our home. I can send him out in the streets without worrying he'll be hit by a truck going 80. Active shooter or intruder drills aren't a phenomenon in his school.
I only wish we could have done it sooner.
Where did you move?
Netherlands
Nice! Welkom! Have fun being there, visit us sometime (Germany).
I was watching a show called Pernille the other week, takes place in Norway, and I thought her youngest daughter was 14/15. She was 12 and walking all over the place. That freedom is just something the States doesnt have. my Son is 12, if I let him walk to the store (crossing a busy 45mph+ road) the cops could get called on me.
My kid is 11 and gets to bike to school, or walk to music lessons or the store whenever. It's pretty cool
The promised land. I’ve lived there before, and I plan on moving back some day. It’s amazing.
