Where are you going to go? It seems difficult to relocate to another country without dual citizenship
Tbh a country that in many ways is significantly worse, but they have free healthcare and a government too unstable to ban anything (also they have "right of return"). That country is Israel, I wish I had another option yet sadly it's my only option.
Israel is a much worse place for trans people, with a conservative government that is much more empowered than the USA and much more connected to religions that wasn't too annihilate trans people and queer people, who's going through their fascist faze and have been openly harassing minorities within their land and outside too. Don't go to Israel. If you want some time to get your things ready to leave for a country like Norway or Holland, California is much much better than pretty much any other state in the USA, you might not even need to leave the US by just staying in California tbh, but if you really want to leave the Nordic countries have been doing really well. France is being attacked by fascists RN but the people are fighting back fiercely and minimizing all the real damage, they are another good option. Switzerland seems to be another good option, but I don't know much about it, but I do have a gay friend that is moving there to live with his boyfriend and he is leaving the USA, so it seems like a good option too
I don't exactly have the time now for EU citizenship
That's why I suggested going to California first, there you can have enough time to get yourself a citizenship for a country that is actually better for you
I can't afford to live in California, heck I can bearly afford to live where I currently live (New York)
California is a huge state, there are cheaper areas to live in, and new York isn't in that much of a risk of suddenly prosecuting queer people, even in a trump government. California is safer, yes, but New York isn't the boonies of Florida or Texas. If you don't mind, what are you afraid of in new york that you think you'll be safer in Israel of all places?
Trump using the executive branch to ban HRT
Can you come to Canada as a refugee from a regime that will oppress you[1]? We have a separate track for that and it's (supposed to be, if you believe the rabid babbling from our hillbilly kings) much easier and faster.
That seems like an "Out of the frying pan and into the fire" type of situation.
Pretty much, better then the alternative of dying tho (not by much)
