Learning a foreign language and runing the fuck out of US is also an option. You don't need risk everything just to better a country where 60% of population hates you and rest is barely neutral.

Need ideas for countries. What's a good place I could move to that has decent public transit infrastructure, free healthcare and good welfare/retirement benefits, cheap gigabit internet, and legal cannabis concentrates?

(Last one is most important because I literally cannot sleep without weed; prescription sleeping pills are awful and do not work effectively for me. Also flower is a non-option cause the wife hates the smell and I want to be considerate.)

Germany, The Netherlands or Czech Republic.

Lets just wait what we Germans vote in 2029. Not sure CDU will kill off the AfD (i actually believe they will team up).

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

The Netherlands allows cannabis concentrates now? Last I checked it was only flower, and you still can only buy it in "coffee shops".

[-] Hubi@feddit.org 1 points 3 weeks ago

They do as far as I know.

Japan still has legal CBN (and CBD), at least until the government figures out that people are using it to have fun and bans it. Although health care is cheap but not free.

I've tried CBD but it doesn't help with my sleep issues unless combined with THC.

[-] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 1 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah cbd didn't do much for me but cbn gives similar feelings to thc. I didn't look into it very deeply but it's something like thc breaks down into cbn over time. It's basically a weaker version of thc. Apparently you could pass a drug test with cbd but not with cbn, for example.

Or even just still using English. Most countries use it in some capacity.

[-] lauha@lemmy.world 14 points 3 weeks ago

You can get by with English in many countries but it doesn't work as a long term plan to just rely on English if you plan to move there.

[-] PlexSheep@infosec.pub 6 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah it's being able to communicate somewhat vs being able to integrate language wise, right?

[-] SkyeStarfall@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 3 weeks ago

You're going to struggle to get a job most places if you sont know the native language

[-] Quadhammer@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

It's more like 30% of the population

Only 12% of African Americans voted Trump IIRC. The majority of European Americans did vote for him. Don’t let them hide what they are behind the decency of others.

[-] ViatorOmnium@piefed.social 5 points 3 weeks ago

If you have an university degree or job that's in high demand even learning a foreign language can be done after you got out. (source: I have a shitload of America friends that came to Europe without speaking anything but English)

[-] Lemming6969@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

This is how you concentrate evil, and doing so in a huge area with the most power and resources is a bad idea.
The better idea is to organize, spread the good out, beat gerrymandering, beat FPTP, regulate campaign funding and special interest lobbying, change the laws, bring back evidence based policy making expert council, and crush the enemy.... Or be crushed and or ousted yourself.
