I’m glad that some Americans are actually sane. Very few of you, but the few give me some hope.

At this point I'm just waiting for a refugee program abroad to open up so we can get the fuck out asap. I have zero hope in this country ever doing anything about this shit, even if the current regime is toppled. Until capitalism is a thing of the past, it's always going to happen again.

I’d offer for you to come to Canada, I’d be down for a green card marriage but I’m already married.

LOL

Canada is probably gonna be the plan though honestly. Driving distance, easy on the dogs, minimal culture shock. Just gotta talk with the wife and start seriously planning it out. We slacked on getting our passports renewed last year though, big mistake. Playing it by ear right now - staying and fighting back just seems like a poor option right now while the empire is collapsing on itself.

Well I’m gonna tell you right now, here in Canada there’s zero guarantee that we won’t be embracing this shit show. A lot of people here right now are low key preparing for war with the US, and those that aren’t don’t really understand whats happening with our borders right now. I’m glad people want to come shooting with me now all of a sudden and are only buying Canadian shit with me now. I seem far less unhinged than I did ten years ago haha

I'm seriously concerned about the UK as well.

Don’t worry, the liberals will vote our way out of this.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Oh well, no worries then! 😬

Oh I'm sure, I've heard the same from some friends up north. Rising fascism is a global trend right now and it's fucking horrifying. Need to get out to the range and practice more myself too for sure. Getting out of here is all well and good, but being prepared for the worst is more important right now.
