> I said a lot of bad things about the president (even called for him to resign) as well as the government he sacked, and much more. I wouldn't worry about it much at this particular point. Said is a textbook dictator but they only have enough manpower and everyone is still everywhere when it comes to publishing stuff. Only those who are very visible will be targeted at first. > So, on that front, I think my options are limited. I'll start contacting embassies on Monday. Many people do this as a scam (for homosexuality) and for many of them it works. Start building a profile with these embassies. You'll unlikely be subjected to torture (or killing) but maybe arrested for a few days or messed with lightly. Keep that as evidence for your asylum application.
