    Part of me still wants to stay and fight in the U.S., but more and more I believe that its the equivalent of trying to stop a tsunami with a riot shield. And I feel incredibly guilty for feeling this way, but I am hoping/planning to permanently move to China one day.

    Every single day in the U.S. is like gambling with your life. I don’t want to suffer and die in this fascist shithole, and I know that I can still help people no matter where I go. But I feel that I owe it to my family and my SO to get us to a better and safer place.

      If it makes you slightly less guilty, the US is actively suppressing any opposition (see the Black Panther Party).

        I know that, but I always believe in standing up and fighting.
