Enough financial resources, and the inkling that there is indeed a place that is not
drinking the same Kool-aid that the US has been guzzling for a very
long time.......byebye Crazycountry.

Anyone who can't find a community they're happy with in our extremely diverse country, full of any kind of community you could possibly want, well, they just can't be made happy.
Anyone who absolutely can't tolerate living among people who have a different political philosophy than themselves, can just move to a community that has the same outlook as they do. In the United States.
Never!
I'd fight like hell and to the death to protect what is mine. To heck with all their BS reparation, CRT and all their communist socialist ideas, clot shot mandates and the present WH village idiot.
I can't imagine living in the midst of Blue State Insanity. Red States have a love of country and freedom AND that is where i will be staying. We can basically ignore the idiot in the WH. We laugh at how Blue States are destroying themselves with wokeness and rampant crime.
Oh the right wing tears in this thread are plentiful. The only places you guys can go which share your theocratic conservative values are some of the Muslim countries. But even they have national healthcare systems and the like. This should be a wakeup call to the fact that a vast majority of the world is not aligned with your political ideology.
Oh good grief OP, perhaps back off the TV news and internet political boards. Leaving your native land to live somewhere else permanently, no matter where that it might be, is not a trivial thing. It is not like visiting another place for a few weeks of even a few months. Sure it is easy to talk and speculate about, but not so easy to make it happen.
I've lived outside the USA enough years to know that the grass is not always greener on the other side of the hill. I'm a retiree with generous retirement income and I can afford to live almost anywhere I please. I also speak fluent Spanish and German, which is a huge asset for making it possible to acclimate in a number of countries. It also helps to navigate the red tape to obtain long term residence authorization in another country. I pity a foreigner here in Germany who doesn't speak German, trying to get a residence permit, obtain a rental lease or even visit a doctor or dentist. The same would apply to living anywhere in most of Latin America - good luck if you don't speak Spanish (or Portuguese in Brazil) and are not prepared to bring a good translator to your medical appointments, bank, government offices, utilities, rental or real estate agencies.
I'm returning to the US in September 2023 and don't really care what the political headlines say. That doesn't affect my real world day to day life because I am not glued to TV news or political flame throwing boards.
I feel as though I've already left the Country. I live in the Free State of Florida. FLA is nothing like the woke Lib cesspools found elsewhere.
I live in a very Red community, in a Red County, in a Very Red region, of a Very Red state, that is located in a Red portion of the USA. I'm deeply entrenched.
I'm confident Florida would secede, along with Texas, & other Red States, before I'd have to leave.
I can't think of any point at which I would willingly leave the USA. The USA, as we know it today, might leave me though.

It would actually be helpful, for those who also are interested in leaving the US for a "paradise", if you would share what you're talking about.
Why be secretive?
