Not from a "functioning safe country", but I just want to say: No matter where I go, things are just fucked.
I was born in PRC, and the Rural areas doesn't even have bathrooms in your own home, and you'd have to go to a shared bathroom in the village. In the city, I don't have a Hukou (Household Registration), so you're basically an "illegal immigrant" inside your own country (and, as many of you know, its very authoritarian). And even the city, there is problems with finding a job because theres like 1/7 of the world population in the country. Then I got to the US and casual racism is everywhere, and even Chinese Americans classmates (who are born in the US) refuse to stand up for me against racism.
Now its declining into fascism.
Wow, the bad luck just follows me everywhere doesn't it?
Hey EU, wanna give me political asylum? (Hopefully the bad luck doesn't follow me into the EU lol)
I don't know man, fratelli is already in power, afd and rn are on the doorstep, etc. that being said if you're not too brown you have your chances
I’ve seen people saying “oh the AfD only has like 20% support” like the US didn’t vote Trump into power with only 25% of the population. Also, 20% of a population supporting literal nazis is something to be concerned about.
