Must be nice to have privilege to just leave. Most countries have strict immigration policy that most amercians wont even qualify for.
Comment on UAnon has a completely relatable reaction to his country's invasion.

I feel like this is more relatable than the reasons my family insists on staying on the US. All an “decent” people’s presence does is “legitimize” the regime and lull the victims and future conscripts into a false sense of security and hope, at this point.

I didn’t come here to criticize most countries like so, but when you hit the nail on the head like that …

Indeed bit where to go? 20 years aho I was looking around the world hopefully but all I saw then were shit holes with little in common with my ethics. Similarly today :(

I don’t disagree with your assessment per se, but ethics-wise I’m liking Chad, or anywhere else that actively takes in large numbers of immigrants/refugees.

The US and Ukraine are in very different positions…

Yes. Theirs remains a country worth defending, from a legitimate, external threat, and the bulk of the potential victims were both allowed to leave and given reasonable options for places to flee to at the outset.
Personally, I’m more worried about most of my friends and family being coerced/tricked to the wrong side than being victimized - merely being deported as a white person would be a win in this sick, sad, world. The contrast was literally the point of my comment.
