For a while I thought about Vietnam, then I broke the “China bad” fog and realized China seems awesome. Then I realized it’s incredibly hard to move there, and even if I could it would be tough as shit learning to read, write and speak a non-Latin language. Not to mention that’s so far away from home and even if I could somehow manage to get my close loved ones to come with me I would still probably miss America beyond all rational sense. So then I’ve wondered about Latin America like Cuba or Venezuela, Spanish would certainly be much easier to learn and adjust to. I also feel like I know little to nothing about Eastern culture, history, customs etc. I mean I love Confucianism but yeah it would definitely be a very different world to wrap my head around that I would have to learn a LOT more about before I felt like…not a stupid asshole for just trying to show up at.
But that’s just speculation, in reality I’ll probably just have to deal with what I’m served. I’m not sure where I could convince other people to move to or where I/we would even have an opportunity to move. I know some people close to me want to move to Germany and I’m like…yeah that’s not a whole lot better…but realistically it has a brighter future ahead of it in the next 50 years than America does, at least going off my amateur speculation. I could never move to another country by myself and abandon everyone else. Or, at the very least, I would have to essentially lose everybody and everything or super mega manic or otherwise in a bad/weird place for that to happen.
I also go back and forth between “stay and fight for your home” versus “escape and enjoy life, don’t be stupid.” I don’t know.
Yeah, I mean hey if Brother Xi & Friends want to unload a couple [REDACTED] at the [REDACTED] when shit is spicy I think we might actually have a good chance. I mean hey even ragtag groups like ISIS flustered the seemingly omnipotent behemoth American military, and things have only gone downhill for American supremacy since then. I also am waking up to the idea that a lot of American fascists are LARPer cowards who will buckle the second they don’t have odds overwhelmingly in their favor.
I might have misremembered something…but I definitely remembered reading about one of the big name Islamofascists and how they can fluster big conventional militaries. Either ISIS or America might have been switched with something else in my memory. It didn’t touch on popular support IIRC, it was mostly just talking about getting big bang for buck, destroying extremely expensive equipment with relatively low tech cheap equipment.
Hopefully with war and all its misery and insanity rubbed directly in their faces, even the vehemently anticommunist Western civilian populations will wake up and join us.

The Bad News is the latter is going to get much harder as more people living under capitalism wake up to the reality of their situation.
The Good News is the former is going to get much easier as more people living under capitalism wake up to the reality of their situation.
