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 States’ behavior towards refugees fleeing persecution, I’m not sure that Americans who try to do the same shouldn’t have their passports flagged and be asked to leave.
But ESPECIALLY if you try to flee to a country USA has interfered with.
I was in my 30s before I realized my Christian friends put zero thought or research into how they'd leave the country in a pinch, whereas I was raised to do my homework. 4th grade Sunday School curricula involved watching movies about families trading their jewelry for passage across a border.
