Nah I don't have to, your local capitalists are doing that for you. And not just your local capitalists in
, it's an indictment of the politics that governs the Western world.
Absolutely not, and I'm not even saying that going to
is necessarily a bad escape option for everyone, depending on your individual circumstances. (Anecdotally, my sister spent some time in 
as a closeted trans woman. Apparently it was worse than 
, because they thought she was First Nations. So she rolls her eyes when people suggest she goes to 
.) But 
people (and all other Westerners) need an ego check whenever they assert that their Western nation is somehow any better than the demonic entity they're desperately trying to suck up to, and eventually 
will force you to become through austerity and control of your political system.
Really, I want people to temper their expectations if they decide to go to
for emancipation. I.e., most people are dealing with the intersection of multiple oppressions, and going to 
is not gonna change very many of those intersecting oppressions.
