There is an American exceptionalism embedded in the idea that y'all think you can just pick up and leave and go wherever you want. It's cute you think you'd be welcomed. Americans aren't exactly popular in the world.
I will be straight up, considering the United Statesā behavior towards refugees fleeing persecution, Iām not sure that Americans who try to do the same shouldnāt have their passports flagged and be asked to leave.
But ESPECIALLY if you try to flee to a country USA has interfered with.
Most of the world is as hostile to immigrants as we are, or more so. If these people try to flee elsewhere, they are going to be unpleasantly surprised. Especially if they're disabled or medically interesting in any way, or not quite exactly like the local majority, or... š§
I would guess few Disabled peopleāat least those who spend time in online communities of Disabled peopleāwould be surprised about this at this point. This is common knowledge by now.
It's common knowledge in online communities, but I added "medically interesting" because you don't have to be sufficiently disabled for a government to recognize it to be unwelcome. Diabetes can be enough. And there are many people who don't yet know this.
Sorry, I was trying to find a way to differentiate between people who are more disabled, and more aware of these things, and people who have medical conditions or histories that would disqualify them from immigration but are not part of a disability community or don't consider themselves disabled.
And just in case my migraine is messing with me even more than I think, the "sorry" was genuine. I'm operating with zero snark or sarcasm here, and if I'm not communicating clearly, I do apologize.
