    Any countries out there willing to take in an American who lived in France for a while, is sane, reasonably intelligent, and does not think he’s better than everybody else?

    I think I might have lost my country, could use a good home and community. Skilled software engineer, so i won’t be a burden.

        Thanks, I will look into this. I don’t speak the language, so it might be a challenge getting a job.

        That said, i have long had a fascination with Scandinavia and learned much about the Eddas, the different cultures of the Scandinavian people, and of course the pantheon of dieties. I feel i have at least a thin base of knowledge to start.

      Get out and protest the administration stepping down and convince your friends to do the same. Other countries managed to do it (just using Ukraine as an example, check Orange Revolution and Euromaidan) and we should be able to.

      We need at least 3.5% of population on the street.

        I feel this is the best first choice. I fear i will end up emigrating as a refugee rather than by choice after this path. The level of surveillance is highly sophisticated such that i can be individually identified by facial recognition even if I’m careful about cell phone security.

        This is a government that almost certainly will go after identified protesters, so i cannot do this until i have a peer group that can support me. That’s what i need to find now.
