/pedant the term would be “emigrating”

[–] [email protected] 59 points 3 weeks ago (5 children)

Specifically the second one.

immigrate from Europe

emigrate to Europe

[–] [email protected] 30 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Depends on your viewpoint.

Emigrate from Europe and immigrate to Europe is also a valid way to look at it.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 weeks ago

It is, but that's not the viewpoint they used in the meme

Because when you're the one who "came up" with it, it's usually a pretty sweet ride, provided you can weather the revolutions and stuff.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago

Tell that to the 10% of the German population that didn't survive WW2.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 weeks ago

Ooooh sorry weathering revolutions isn’t part of our Fascism ‘25 package - that was extra :-/

Would you be interested in our selection of neck guards?

I blame the French, before them damned near every Germanic society had a broadly democratic tribal or clan based system. Then the French combined that with Roman autocratic systems and somehow created an early version of Divine right of kings and a form of proto absolutism. Yes I am glossing over a tonne of shit but compare the French estates to the clusterfuck that was the Holy Roman Diet and it's like comparing a member of the English Royal guard to a Somalian pirate.

I blame greed. It doesn't matter where it came from. It's some bullshit.

The fascism was within you the whole time.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Europe accepts its sons and daughters of long ago. Specially the talented ones who contributed to empowering science in the US.

Not the Drumpf family, tho. Those can stay there instead of returning to their roots in Germany. The last thing we want is a "Make Germany Great Again" movement - they're already great right now, no need to fix what's not broken, thank you.

I wish the first part were actually true, on the bureaucratic level. Sadly it is quite difficult to emigrate to the EU

Uruguay has a pretty easy system you can make a request of residence and it seems that usually go through. Americans do not need a visa to come but if you prepare the paperwork is easier..

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Tell me more about Uruguay. What's irs like over there, standard of living etc.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

A quick scan of Wikipedia shows there's an actual left wing party currently in power that was formerly led by a guerilla fighter during the military occupation of the country in the 80s

As well they legalized abortions in 2012 and weed and same sex marriage in 2013

It's got a 3 branch government similar to America

Economy seems stable, Internet seems good.

Guess it's time to start learning Portuguese or Spanish!

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

The left wing party is not led by a former guerrila fighter but said one Jose Mujica was president yes here the president is important yes but not the all powerful figure. That was in the 70s (the guerrilla thing) and they all admitted that doing a revolution was not the best answer to the political trumoil. Also the militia coup was backed by Nixon so there is that.

And it's Spanish the official language.

Best option on Latin America on pretty much any standard. Progressive laws, good weather - main negative thing I can think of is that rent can be quite expensive. I've considered moving there in the past but my Spanish is awful.
