Hello, all! Longtime lurker on Reddit and now on Lemmy. I’ve tried looking into getting out of the US as things aren’t looking too great as I’m sure many of you know, but wanted some tips from those of us who have gotten out. Where did you decide to move to, and what were the things you looked at when deciding to move there? How did you go about the process? What are some stories you can tell about the immigration process? Where can I start? How can I realistically make it happen? I hope this isn’t silly to you all, as it matters quite a lot to me and I’m genuinely interested in getting away from here for good. Thank you all for your time!

    I’m in a blue state which is “supposedly better” and it still sucks ass and I still have to be effected by shitty culture wars going on.

      As has been said, just saying “blue state” doesn’t tell you enough about where is a good place and where isn’t.

        Yes but I’m in one of those places where “minorities are celebrated” - I’m a minority and I get the shit end of the stick still.
