Honestly I don’t know what’s going on in the USA. You’re so proud of your “democracy and freedom” yet one of your 2 political parties is able to effectively dismantle the entire thing in less than a decade. You’re now one election away from being a christofascist state.

…and yet you’re all just going to work tomorrow. You’re all doing pretty much nothing except “make sure you vote in 2024.” So I guess every 4 years you’re going to be one election away from a literal Nazi takeover?

I don’t know. Riot or something. I have no idea how you’re all coping so hard.

    Have you actually done what you’re suggesting? Because my understanding is that it is incredibly difficult to immigrate with a disability, even if you have useful skills. Profoundly more so if your disability has made you unable to work.

      Without going into much details: yes, but it seems like you’re speaking of a permanent disability, while I had temporary disability in mind when I was writing that. A permanent one would require changing careers and a chunk of a lifestyle so large that emigration is peanuts in comparison.
