I really got into specificity and accuracy lately, which does seem to confuse people.

no maybe about it.

are you confused by the numbers or the words?

both are concise and to the point, in case someone like you happened upon them.

oh, no, sorry, haha.

I've been living abroad for a very long time.

If you are a native English speaker, you can be saving a couple grand per month in a few weeks if you don't have a passport yet or start tomorrow if you do have a passport.

there are thousands of ESL jobs that will pay you an absolute minimum of $2,000 us a month working 25 hours a week in countries where the cost of living is less than $500 a month, but the quality of life is the same or better than the states.

you can get out of all the politics shit, go live a real life, and make a bunch of money doing it while doing good in the world helping students realize their potential and provide them with greater opportunities, and being an unofficial cultural ambassador, as far as you want to bridge the cultural gap between countries.

If you have any questions, I love talking about this stuff.

"Yes it is for a lot of people"

Yes, changing your question will yield a different answer.

"Do you think the system will happily keep working for those it persecutes?"

it never has, why do you think a system will help the people it is persecuting? persecution is inherently harmful.

"...can't imagine their country goes fascist, and it always backfires. "

well, guess what, you don't have to guess anymore. your country is actively going fascist (you sound American).

"You're living under a fascist government, act accordingly and do it swiftly."

I am definitively not, and I've been helping others get out from under the boot heel for a decade and a half.

You're talking out your elbow.

as you're an American, I suppose you pay taxes and support that government that you claim upsets you so?

I don't.

sounds like you're the problem.

no, those are not my assertions.

it seems that rather than ask clarifying questions, you've extrapolated false conclusions from a base of assumptive ignorance.

not very helpful.

ohhhh boy, lemmy demographics kicking in, half an hour in with this as the first response.

El Salvador?

I thought of die antwoord first, which is surprising and probably not correct but that's my first answer.

I think they're music videos have a lot to do with that, those really helped me lock into their songs.

I definitely like the zef vibe

you a native English speaker?

no it isn't, but they should get one anyway.

I've been doing it for 15 years, I'm definitely correct.

which part are you confused about?

I tried to make my answers very simple and concise.

which part don't you understand?

yea, but $16 a year for an instant 50-90% reduced cost of living with guaranteed high-pay employment and no income tax while retaining access to consular services is a pretty good deal.

not as good as 7 bucks a year, but I'm not exactly going to quibble over the extra ten in the face of all the benefits.

it is still very easy to get a passport. I helped a friend get theirs last month, and more over the years.

don't listen to any of the ignorant comments saying it's difficult to get one; they don't know what they're talking about.

you can do it online or in person at a US Post office.

fill out the application form, takes maybe 20 minutes tops, pay the fee (165$), they take your picture, you will get your passport in the mail in a couple of weeks, it lasts for 10 years, renewable on the go from embassies and consulates.

If you have any questions about passports or traveling, fire away.

"Harris is better than Trump."

...it's demeaning to Harris to say she's better than a rapist. most violent drug addicts are better than a rapist.

"But they will never give you freedom, they don't want to."

I mean, ridiculous.

I know, it's a cool meme right now, but totally ridiculous.

"You need something more radical"

no one brought up Harris until you did .

I'm backing AOC and Bernie; if you don't recognize their radical political nature, you do not understand the first word of what you're talking about.

which, I suppose, evident here:

"Then, and ONLY then, will things change."

things are changing right now, it sucks. you don't need things to change,, you need things to get better. stop looking for radical Solutions when AOC and Bernie are telling you the very normal everyday solutions that take a lot of work to get done.

those solutions work, those Solutions are better education funding, universal healthcare, money out of politics.

it's not fun or a good meme, but those are the real answers and you have two people who are telling you what to do and how to do it if you really care about making things better.

I'll tell you, I backpack between cities regular, and a lot of those agricultural towns don't even have police stations.

every time someone, including myself quotes the population of China, (officially 1.4 billion), I think about the huge towns in the middle of nowhere that I've been to and think "or maybe 2 billion"
