People who think ‘your body my choice’ is an American problem and not a *global problem* with white supremacists appealing to boys in every English speaking country including *yours*: what rock have you been living under?

Same people urging Americans to move to their very functional, apparently, countries I suppose (while ignoring how their countries have significantly restricted immigration policies for everyone, not just Americans)

@skinnylatte canada and usa seem to have an asshole guy free trade agreement so we're generally quite aware of this. a jerk economy.

@skinnylatte and how many countries with socialized medicine won’t take disabled folks.
I’ve lived abroad and I’ve loved it. Without a (rich) sponsor and copious savings, it’s much less accessible than people think.
(I’m agreeing, not preaching to the choir, I know you know immigration’s difficulties viscerally)

@SarraceniaWilds @skinnylatte I'm definitely going to use "a jerk economy" in the future.

@smellsofbikes @SarraceniaWilds I want to live in a jerk chicken economy.

@moss @skinnylatte In Germany, if you have a job offer, the system won't know or care if you're disabled. The gatekeeping is done through an insurance mandate; insurance can be public or private, private insurance discriminates by preexisting conditions, and public insurance requires continuity of coverage so you can't get on it if you're a) coming from outside Europe and b) a freelancer. So yeah, you can fall through the cracks, but if you have a regular job offer, there's no problem.

@skinnylatte French, German, Italian, Polish, Swedish speaking too alas…

@Alon @moss @skinnylatte this still loses a huge chunk of us. Some of us can't work at all, most have limitations on what kind of work we can do and one of the most common is being unable to work a "regular job". Just because a few disabled people slip through the cracks doesn't mean that we're not being systematically barred from entry
