Current day America has proven beyond a doubt, humanity is the only animal that wouldn't jump out of a slowly boiling pot of water.

Isn't it for all animals. If you keep slowly increasing temperature their body temperature will more easily come to equilibrium with outside temperature than it will if you just put them to hot boiling pot?
Yes but you have to lobotomize the frogs first.

Billionaires are keeping us in the pot, using levers of power that we don't access from the pot.

You’re out to lunch, musk is couping the government and breaking it on purpose.
The technofascists want their fiefdoms and they’re trying to kill most of us so they can rule the rubble. Curtis yarvin, look him up.

This would imply that they're not surrounded by other pots filled with water which is (varying degrees of) boiling. We don't really have a Socialist Utopia meeting spot, let's say.
Beyond that, eloping requires a not insignificant amount of money (as a Romanian, I can say that homes/apartments aren't cheap here, either, and we're not exactly L.A.)
And at the other end of the line, immigration's not exactly thought of with fondness, even in Europe. Don't forget, we're stewing in our own pot even if the heat's still relatively tolerable.

Don't forget the millions of us chained to the bottom because we have no choice

I hope America will have democratic elections in four years. But I won't be surprised if it doesn't happen.
Trump is a fascist, has both chambers and the supreme Court behind him. At best, it's going to be a very dark four years for minorities, women and poor people.

Renewed mine online in October. Received in 12 days.

Having no choice people think we can just jump ship (or I guess the pot) when they don't realize the people who can't do it at all because there chained to it
For instance trans people can't get passports or renew them meaning they have absolutely no way to leave.
We need to stay and help the disenfranchised instead of jumping ship

Pot boiling and the raging inferno are both in America. Go and explore, the world is more peaceful then you think

How so?
Geniunely don't understand how being trans prevents you from getting out?
I'd assume when being asked about your sex, I'd just swallow the pride (no pun intended) and say what the sex at birth was to get the paperwork done. As soon as ones out it won't matter as much anyway. -
If it's not another name for it, it's definitely very close to the Overton Window.

Huffing a bit much on copium n.americanium?

Drank the Koolade huh?
The US has been looked-down upon by the world for a long, long time. Now we're just starting to feel bad for you.

Its such a shit situation. If you want out, you generally need to get a job in another country. A job in a different country generally pays significantly less than the cost of living in most of the USA, so you need to already have a significant amount of money already saved to even consider it an option.
Most of us are just fucking trapped.

Exactly this thank you
