I've got a friend trying to move from the United States to England to escape our current shit show, and I've been telling him that England tends to do what America does, just with a posh accent to give it an air of legitimacy.

At this point, leaving England for America is the saner choice...

Nowhere is truly safe at this point. Better the devil you know than the devil you don't.

I'm currently working out moving to Jamaica. Got a friend there to help, but he says it ain't all sunshine and cheap pot like the movies.

I'm not LGBT but I usually use that as a guideline of "is this a good place to be?"

And its not looking great.

Pick somewhere else.

Super simple and smart way to sort places that care about human rights. Thanks for sharing.

If you think they do it with a posh accent you've not been to England lol

I'm mainly thinking of Tony Blair making the same case for invading Iraq that George W. Bush was, just with the accent.
