Yeah, asylum isn’t great. But Fascism is serious stuff. I recommend reading the stories of the great scientists who left the third reich as it was ramping up—who faced discrimination, loneliness, poverty, and severe career setbacks-and comparing them to stories of the scientists who stayed… I know which side I’d rather be on. Regardless, I don’t think “coming back to the US to visit family” is on our radar. That’s what makes this election heartbreaking. Asylum or no, moving overseas is effectively abandoning your extended/older family forever, unless you’re rich and/or a climate change denier.
