Continue living outside of the US, which means I'm not doing anything, really. If the US were to get stupidly unstable, pull my remaining assets out and maybe try to get Visa for family to come here (Japan), but that seems unlikely to happen.

I can't afford housing here anyways so I'd genuinely expend a lot of my life savings to try to move to Europe, at least temporarily. Yes, yes, "everywhere has its problems". I just want new problems I guess.

Try not to leave the house too much. For four years.

Try and see if my international employer has any semi-permanent positions overseas.

But more likely than not, return to introvert and hope my family doesn't continue to devolve...

I'm thinking on going to south america, I would rather go to Europe, but If Trump wins its very likely he will allow Russia to go and invade other nato members starting ww3

Where in South America would you go? What places are welcoming of American immigrants?

I've been stockpiling currencies and practicing another language, while looking into citizenship through my heritage. Also been reading a lot of info over on resisters.info I've never really been one to worry about stuff like politics to this degree, but the world as a whole is just getting so crazy and I just want to be able to live a peaceful life, so I want to prepare incase.

Seppuku

But for real idk. My wife is an obgyn and I'm Hispanic soooo I feel like we might be in danger.

Already moved on to a boat, I'll either be staging to leave, or already out of the country, when the election is decided. Depending on the results I'll be back in the spring, or not.

Well, I ain't got enough funds to go anywhere, so just wait it out as the world becomes one giant fascist world where I'm supposed to Nazi salute every single police officer and slaughter anyone who isn't white, Christian, and ultra conservative.

Waiting to buy a house until after this election. Blue enough city doesn't matter.

I’ll just go on living my life in Norway, fielding questions left and right like “is it really that bad/racist/scary in America?”.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago

My state will be largely unaffected, we'll still have decision makers of the opposite extreme.

[–] droning_in_my_ears 4 points 8 months ago

Move to Canada

Move to Alaxka

Move to Antarctica

Move to the UK...

Just finished reading a book during WW2 and damn. These comments, they're eerily similar.
