Wish I could relate. At this point im waiting for Canada to announce asylum for transpeople

[–] festus@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (3 children)

Realistically Canada is going to put off allowing asylum seekers from the US as long as possible, as the volumes of asylum seekers the US handles (that are no longer welcome there) would overwhelm Canada. That's without considering American asylum seekers too.

You best bet is to consider immigrating through traditional, economic based pathways.

its either mexico or canada. EU if your a PHD/MD in niche specailities holder, willing to have less income than in the states, but they dont see the problem anyways.

OH yea, because US citizens is sitll not immediate threat from systemic persecution, war zone, or wanton killings.

Great I'm disabled and never finished College, so that's probably not gonna happen

All my profs at my Canadian undergrad university were American, they had left because of Kent State. A lot have already come up here again.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago

and MD recently denied an offer from ULCA heading a surgical team to be in one of Canadas healthcare clinics/university.

[–] BanMe@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Canada already has precedent of not extraditing trans people here because of the climate for queer people. June I think.

[–] M0oP0o@mander.xyz 2 points 1 day ago

? just come on over, I don't think we are closed off to immigration. Unless you are an ass, then I am not your buddy pal.

[–] DaMummy@lemmy.world 42 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Don't complain. There's literally people that live in America right now. Send your thoughts and prayers.

We appreciate that but what we really need are more bullets and prescription drugs

Puerto Rico? Strange choice, but cool.

[–] desmosthenes@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

beat me to it.

[–] IrateAnteater@sh.itjust.works 28 points 2 days ago (4 children)

I'd probably reluctantly live in Hawaii. If someone were paying me an unreasonable amount of money to do so. Distance seems to temper the worst of the bullshit.

[–] Tigeroovy@lemmy.ca 1 points 6 hours ago

Also if I get to displace some American jag off that moved there. They don’t get to trade with me and come here, but I get to kick them out and take their house.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 1 day ago

or alaska, but its probably better to be in mexico or canada.

[–] skeptomatic@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

What else would you do, reluctantly, for money?
See, Larry Ellison owns about 98% of the island of Lanai. He's got a bunker there.
Zuckerberg also owns property on Lanai, has a bunker there (a Lanai local told me), in addition to his ranch on Kauai.
Peter Thiel, probably similar. Musk, similar... Oprah, etc.
So we'll get you the GoFundMe money, but we have a mission for you...

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 1 day ago

Thiel tried to make his own "f-boy island" i think it kinda failed.

By this time next year it will either be its own thing or part of another country, this place will be a Balkanized mess by then

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

trumps already trying to withold funding for 16 blue states. balkanization maybe sooner than expected.

Finally someone talking sense, really depressing sense, but sense nonetheless

Definitely not even for a visit.

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 10 points 2 days ago

Even the snowbirds I know are taking a pass. That country is in a badddd place.

[–] orbitz@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago

Yeah I was thinking visiting was off limits, and I think I'm taken as a white dude, though generics will say otherwise. Half my ancestors discovered America the other half didn't think they lost it, sort of thing. Also I try not to visit countries with fascist governments.

[–] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

That's how I feel, and I'm American. Wanted to go expat during Trumpfest 1 but the wife wouldn't budge.

[–] Flying_Dutch_Rudder@lemmy.world 15 points 2 days ago (4 children)

As a colour blind Canadian, I’m horribly confused. Is this a never or absolutely? You don’t happen to be from Alberta by any chance, do you?

[–] nocturne@slrpnk.net 4 points 1 day ago

Never is in red, absolutely is in green, the entire map is colored red. There is nothing but the never red shown anywhere on the map beyond the key.

It is a bad choice for the colors chosen, as they are the perfect red/green opposite for color blindness to see as the same color.

Note: this not written as snarky to Fly_Dutch_Rudder, itt is meant as a helpful explanation of the map.

Fuck I don't want to live here either. Please annex Washington, we'll come willingly.

[–] DupaCycki@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

You can join Poland willingly or be conquered.

Where I'd live in the US as an american

[–] threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Not that we'd expect this one to.

Weird that that community doesn't exist on Lemmy yet.

@Dave@lemmy.nz, would you be up for hosting it? Having it on the NZ instance would be *chef's kiss*.

[–] Dave@lemmy.nz 2 points 7 hours ago

I'll throw together a survey for Lemmy.nz users and see what people think 🙂

I really hope other countries start allowing lgbtqia+ people to immigrate as asylum seekers.

I'm so sick of living in this shithole country.

[–] CircaV@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 day ago

I don’t know about other countries but Canada has issued warnings for Canadians with gender neutral passports to avoid the US.

[–] QueenHawlSera@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago (2 children)

No one on Earth could be as cruel as the US is to its own people

I understand the dislike for the US, but I think it's disingenuous to suggest that there aren't any other countries just as bad as the current admin, if not worse.

Half of the countries in the world are horrible places to live. Actually it might be more than half, but you get the idea.

[–] SoftestSapphic@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Any suggestions on where to try moving to?

[–] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 days ago

What about Puerto Rico or the US Virgin Islands?

[–] theUwUhugger@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Trump’s wasn’t called by canadians?

He was called by CANADA

[–] panda_abyss@lemmy.ca 9 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

It was one big conference call, we were all on it.

Somebody was chewing food (I’m looking at you Todd from Kingston Ontario), but the call went okay.
