I have about 7k in precious metals, and 2k in fire arms (and ammo) I do not have main character syndrome so I recognize my life as a trans woman is in extreme danger. How do I GTFO of the US? I’m having the most intense panic attack I’ve ever had and just want advice to escape extreme facism

    This is not a decision you should be making in the middle of a panic attack. Emigrating demands extensive planning and carefully selecting a destination, particularly as a transgender person. I often have to tell young trans people this, and it’s relevant here: There are no good places for trans people, only bad places and worse places.

      It is the same for disability. As a disabled trans person I’ve come to some peace (though not quite fully) with everywhere in the world just being shitty for me forever. When it gets bad enough where I live it will be worth the calculus of determining the least bad of “bad” or “worse” places, which I am preparing for in my own ways, but in the US and western European countries we are not there yet.
