  • The problem with this type of thinking is that eventually, there are no more places to run to. If you live in America, and you are looking to move somewhere safe, there are few places that offer similar living standards. Even fewer countries can offer an upgrade to American living standards.

    The only places that I can think of are western and northern Europe, China, Japan, Korea (not for long), Russia, Singapore, and Malaysia.

    China is notoriously difficult to get citizenship in, even permanent residence is hard to get. Malaysia requires you to make an investment in the country (I forgot the dollar amount, but it’s over 10k). Japan and Korea are safe for now, but likely in the coming decade (especially for the latter) things will get worse economically and militarily speaking. Singapore, might be the best option for Asia.

    Russia will be hard to sell to Americans and euros bc of putin-wink and stalin-comical-spoon cold war propaganda. I don’t think many westoids will entertain the notion of living in Russia.

    Europe is probably the best option (in general) in terms of getting citizenship, safety, and living standards (no rolling blackouts, good healthcare access, low threat of famine, good chance for education, etc). It’ll get harder for Americans to migrate to Europe, as more make the switch. Europeans will obviously not be happy with all the Americans showing up, and will treat them well, and accept them peacefully into their society bully them.

    The destabilization of Europe at the hands of the country they’re fleeing won’t stop. Eventually European states will also join the list of countries that are not safe.
