waves of conservatives screaming about leaving the USA all over the internet and also getting on local news and shit
The unfortunate thing with voters is that those most able to emigrate don’t vote Conservative; so all they can do is wonk at the press. When the lefties - typically better educated, as per the stats - want to emigrate, they actually have a chance.
Even more against conservative expatriates is the fact that they’re conservative to begin with is because they’re scared of change and new cultures and experiences, and expatriating anywhere would terrify them, they would never be able to navigate the requirements, background checks and interviews and even tests that often come with immigrating legally to another country.
But many progressives have traveled the world, are educated and unafraid of integrating into new cultures and having new experiences. I’ve been all over Asia and even know people who would take me in and give me a room and a job if I showed up on their door they’re so warm and friendly to someone willing to do things like be quiet and listen and try new foods and learn and take off their shoes entering a stranger’s house.
The only way conservatives seem comfortable in foreign lands is when they’re already wealthy so they can join some gated community of equally horrible people like the weird stories of gentrified neighborhoods in Mexico that are increasing. And the fact that so many of the people who enabled ICE in our country are retiring in Mexico speaks volumes that few people will ever read into.

I’d like to see stats too, obviously.
