It’s me. I wish to leave.
With every fiber of my being, please.
Just waiting for Europeans to finally buck up and accept us as political refugees. Talk about school shootings, Healthcare, so many bad things about the US, things that make me never want children. But would they like me, only separated from there by a few generations, to go back with my engineering degree and have children? Help the declining birthrate and following population decline? Guess Europe only wants illegal immigrants?
We have enough rightwing dipshits already. Can confirm that we would not like you and rather take some based refugees who just want to live their lives.
The rightwing dipshits aren’t the ones who would want to leave.
Every time they don’t to get exactly what they want they always say they’re going to leave.
Okay, the rightwing dipshits aren’t the ones where there’s actually a chance they’d leave.
You had me until the xenophobic bullshit last sentence.
Actually, I started to suspect something was off when you began talking about declining birth rates since that’s a common talking point amongst replacement theory believers and other racists, but I gave you the benefit of the doubt until you confirmed your bigotry at the end.
Grow up. “I agree, until you said something I slightly don’t agree with. Now you’re a xenophobic racist and I disagree with you completely.” . Please just block me if you’re so fragile.
"I agree, until you said something I slightly don’t agree with
Yeah, that’s kind of how agreeing and disagreeing works…
Now you’re a xenophobic racist and I disagree with you completely."
Nah, what I (correctly) pointed out was that one sentence was xenophobic. I didn’t say that it was necessarily representative of you as a person or that it made me disagree with the things I agreed with before.
I said that I didn’t like your comment anymore because it ended with a xenophobic sentence. There’s nothing odd about that. Seems I’m not the fragile person who needs to grow up here.
America should just let Texas secede from the union. The biggest group of morons are offering to take themselves out of the equation.
Please send help.
Or we’ll nuke you
dude shut up im gonna get them to give us shit then we can nuke them
Oh shit, uh, yes please help us
Guess I’m the only one who is happy living in the US. We have our fair share of problems but so does everywhere. I’ve lived in 4 different countries over the past 40 years and I’m good here. Lemmy is so hateful toward Americans
Our government fucking sucks and has a HUGE influence on the world. People need to separate their hated of a country’s government and its people.
Nah it’s anti American Kremlin/CCP propaganda. The US is one of the better places to live in the world, just look at immigration numbers.
People voting with their feet are a lot more believable than anonymous accounts on social media.
That’s an extremely wild take, and one I’m surprised to see voted highly.
While I don’t think America is a bad place to live, you definitely don’t have the best reputation across the world when it comes to your standard of living. You have to pay obscene amounts for healthcare, your food safety standards are below other countries, your school system is known not for education but for target practice, you have religious nutjobs everywhere, you worship a constitution that basically every other country has, and you have a huge wealth divide.
The latter is why immigration numbers are high. America is a very hard country to migrate to, but people will try because for many you can earn enough in a few years in the US to retire in your home country.
You should get out and travel.
I’m literally not American. Most of us do, whereas many Americans either don’t venture out of their bubble, or have idealised versions of the world.
Most people in the world don’t travel nearly as much as Americans, and most are just as ignorant as Americans. I don’t care if you’re American or not.
I’m one of them. That’s why I’m complaining.
I don’t compare my country to developing nations. They are measured by a different metric.
Anything but metric!
Ok usual the American unit system jokes are pretty stale, but that was smooth af
Yeah, low hanging fruit.
laughing in European
Lol, the last continent I’d want to move to is Europe.
You have some of the fastest aging societies in the world. Your energy is imported from unstable regions that require the intervention of the US to keep them flowing. None of your nations have the ability to project power at scale. Some of your largest companies like BASF are shuttering entire divisions in Europe because they are no longer competitive. The IT start up environment in Europe is a joke.
But please tell me more about MAGA, healthcare, school shootings, expensive college tuition and how big our trucks are.
Laughs in paid sick leave, parental leave and other employment rights instead then?
And food standards.
And free healthcare.
Europe has fast ageing societies because our people live long and prosperous lives.
The only reason we get energy from unstable regions is because the US makes them unstable for their own profit.
The EU has been projecting power towards plenty of international companies to force them to do whatever we deem necessary, all in favour of the consumer. And they are abiding, because of the EU’s power.
The EU is proof the world does not need big companies. So I don’t know why you are licking their boots as if they were a good thing. We need less big companies, not more.
In the EU you need a coherent start up plan before you are let loose on the market. None of this fuelled by hopes and dreams. Our start ups may be fewer, but they are more robust.
And I will tell you more about how you have an entire political party about to elect a dictator. How your elite have brainwashed tons of you into thinking you don’t need to be healthy or have the power of a union. How school shootings are normalised and how bad you guys don’t want educated people. But sure, keep destroying the planet. It is not like we all live there.
Europe has fast ageing societies because our people live long and prosperous lives.
People living long & prosperous lives and having a young & growing population are not mutually exclusive. You can do both.

Why is that important to literally anything apart from international penis measuring competitions?
