    I moved within the US in part due to this. I realized that we’re just on the cutting edge of the rise of neo-fascism. Europeans have their own issues, Canada has theirs too. New Zealand was always super appealing, but my specialization isn’t well represented there. Australia is like fucking impossible to immigrate to, as is anywhere in the UK, so Scotland is off the list. Ireland seems like they’ll take you if you have 10 bucks and promise to work and pay taxes there, but also it’s pretty culturally conservative.

    I feel more at home in my new state than I may have ever in my old one.

      If you rule out Ireland because it’s too “culturally conservative” for you, you’re never going to find anywhere to emigrate 😂

      Ireland isn’t any more conservative than most of north America and a significant chunk of the Australian and Kiwi populations.

      My wife has dual citizenship and her country is pretty easy with her sponsoring our kids for citizenship, we are in the process. I have made my decision, if things hit the fan here I will send them to her country but I am planning to stay here and stick it out.
