What is it you can't stand? Nothing concrete has happened yet. Maybe this doesn't apply to you but it's interesting to see how a number of celebrities with massive resources (from my point of view) which effectively enable them to insulate themselves from almost any changes which a new government might introduce, have promised to flee the country.
Fuck this shit. White supremacism has just been validated on a national scale. The markets are tanking and the value of the US dollar will drop. People like Giuliani, Christie, and Duke will have the reins; everything good Obama did will be overturned, and the Supreme Court will turn red. Even nuclear war will no longer be off the table.
My country is collapsing around me. I want out before shit gets a whole lot worse — while that's still an option. Somewhere where the US dollar has less influence and where fallout has less of a chance to reach. (And also with good coffee and beer.)
Having listened to a bunch of WWII podcasts recently, it struck me how the people who fled Germany once the Nazis came into power — ridiculed as they were by their friends and relatives! — were the most likely to weather that horrible conflict.
Maybe it's a stretch — or maybe not — but in the end it's just branch prediction. Australia sounds nice.
Australia would be great except every damn bug in the country can kill you. I'm completely terrified of Australia. See a beautiful spider? Want a closer look? Nope. You're dead.
