    The U.S. is always on TV and it’s depressing af. I have a co-worker here in Australia parroting American neonazi talking points.

    You need to be quarantined.

      Can I get out first? I don’t care to see if they decide to imprison me for being trans or put me on a work farm for taking psychiatric medication.

        LPTs for anyone considering:

        • https://visasponsor.jobs/api/jobs
        • look for immigration short lists per country, e.g. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/skilled-worker-visa-immigration-salary-list/skilled-worker-visa-immigration-salary-list - note there’s also unskilled work included in these, notably carers on the seperate (see link) healthcare list

        first you gotta find a country that will let you in and stay in.

        and then, you gotta pay the US government to rescind your citizenship.
