Leaving the country over an election like this seems pretty childish IMO. Why wouldn't you wait until there was, you know, some kind of policy change before making that kind of massive life decision?
- eropple 10y agoBecause, frankly? A country that is down with electing somebody who overtly panders to white supremacists is not a country I really want to be in. A country that elects somebody who thinks electrocuting teenagers to cure homosexuality is not a country I really want to be in. I don't need to see what they will do to know what they have done. I don't intend to move stupidly, and I don't intend to unless I can better my situation--but I wasn't even considering it yesterday, and I am now.
