I want to understand your individual circumstances that are preventing you from leaving the US.

In my case, there was only me and my mom, making the choice to return to Brazil very straightforward. I had no other friends nor family, and was unemployed at the time.

I have a job and family in the US. As long as DACA exists its in my best interests to stick around, but if it were to terminate I'd just exit quietly and unnoticed to greener pastures. Go where they treat you best.

Here I am financially well. Have own house. Own car. Support elderly mother.

Over there, I have no support system. My mother's family side are all useless. My father's side could potentially help me in a small way if I lived close to them but they all live in the countryside. There's no jobs there unless you're connected and can get a government job. Plus, all of them have their own problems and lives to deal with. I would become another burden to them.

I would not get the extensive support that I would need to adapt and thrive after being away from 20+ years.

time to make NPCs seethe with truth.

Latin America as a whole is a MAJOR shthole. been to some countries under AP and its basically unlivable anywhere there. mostly composed of low IQ people that wont do anything to better their situations which infuriates me to the core.

no hope for those places. just look at Mexico for example NPCs are willing to ignore the high crime levels going on there for some welfare and dont make me get started with the rest.

The US might have its issues but its nothing that cant be fixed. Trump and the Republicans are going to last one term and everything will go back to normal.

The 10yr ban has kept me in this country. I would have left a long time ago if I could come back and visit after leaving. I have a lot of family and friends here and it is kind of hard to cut that part of my life out. Secondly, I have a good career here. I live very comfortably... Own my own house, 2 cars, and a boat.

I don’t have any family in Nicaragua.
Nicaragua isn’t as prosperous like Brazil.
I am so close to getting my green card.
My white husband hates trump and is seriously considering moving to Nicaragua if things get too extreme in the US.

Where am I gonna go? Can’t go back to my country Afghanistan especially as a female, it’s just hell there for women and in general. I grew up here and lived here most of my life.

Why would you say that as a MAGA? Don’t you support all of this and want more of it? Everything won’t go back to normal because Musk and Trump are doing a lot of damage. Will there even be fair and free elections?

Isn't it hell here for women's rights in the United States as well?

The United States is the most racist country in my opinion.
