Hi there, disabled American here.
Any chance I can seek aslyum in the EU or Canada when Trump/Elon cuts off my disability payments, thus leaving me to die, starving and homeless?
I hope so - asylum usually needs to be filed from a political persecution perspective, but probably worth looking into what paperwork you would need to prove your need for asylum now.
Oh, well I don't have much paperwork left, beyond a pdf of my SSDI payments.
Got assaulted, maimed, lost my job, got evicted, lost everything, ended up homeless for about a year.
Somehow managed to get my social security card and drivers liscense replaced after my wallet got stolen for the third time, roughed it untill I got SSDI payments instated, had to take a greyhound halfway across the country to find a shit tier motel turned 'apartment complex' willing to let me rent, that I could afford.
The job that I lost was being a data analyst, db admin, webdev, etc for the largest non profit in Seattle ... that served and housed the homeless community.
They didn't give a fuck about myself becoming homeless, despite me personally knowing half the people that man the phones, despite myself having overhauled the online application for assistance process.
... So anyway, yeah I don't have any paperwork anymore, beyond debt collectors harassing me for bills run up on my stolen credit cards.
No, fleeing because you'd otherwise starve is what our neoliberal government calls an "economic migration".
You're only a legit refugee when your government is trying to kill you directly, like right now. In that case, you can apply for asylum, but please do so before leaving your country, and allow 5-10 years for processing your application.
Ah... so now we're not just dividing the people against themselves domestically, but internationally too.
Who benefits from that?
What a fucking stupid meme
Not stupid of you're trying to support Trump's efforts to divide the US and its allies.
Like Europe is doing any better
21% of romanians who voted thought someone who said that carbonated juices contain nanochips, which "enter you like into a laptop", and that someone responsible with the death of 250000-380000 jews during WW2 was a national hero, while also saying that he would fight antisemitism if elected was the best choice
We don’t act like we are one country even though the EU + some other countries act more like one country than the US.
Not saying that we aren’t a mess, but there are vast differences between countries in every sense of the word.
Perfect. Could be a better finger choice but really accurate.
This meme is stupid and the thread is full of people who say “the Americans should fix it”
Sure let’s go protest and get shot dead by our own new gestapo.
Fuck off.
What we really need is action but we are too cowed.
Every country despises you complacent and dumb Americans.
I think that's a little exaggerated, but even if it were 100% accurate it's not like America hasn't earned the reputation.
I just want you to take me with you :((((
I have not see this happen, whut?
i DiDn'T vOtE bOtH pArTiEs ArE tHe SaMe LoL
Yes, yes, we've all read the OP...
Victim blaming. How enlightened.
Americans seeing themselves as the center of the world and primary (or only?) victims here, when American foreign policy is wreaking havoc on the international community. We're not focused on you, as Americans, because your government is currently trying to fuck us and we're dealing with that. We can have compassion for what you're going through, just don't expect much support as we have our own shit to deal with.
That's perfectly fair. That's also not the message the meme conveys.
Imma be totally real with you boss, our(American) government is trying just as hard to fuck us(the citizens).
i don't want your support i want the EU to fucking intervene before the american government make things much, much worse for everyone
