Seiously, any place that it's easy to get a work visa for; doing anything. I just want out of this violent, racist rotting corpse of a country.

Honestly my biggest concern in moving to Nicaragua or somewhere else in Central America is I don't want to be like those fucking new age dorks in Guatemala; squatting on Indigenous land for nothing but my own benefit.
Like if the choice is between having to be a worker in the imperial core or a small business tyrant in the global south, I'd take the former. At least then it's just my body and brain that hurt and not my conscience.
lol I'm Guatemalan and those types of people all live in the same municipality: Antigua. Go there and you'll find out where 98% of the gringos in Guatemala live. That, and Zone 10 of Guatemala City.
But I get what you're saying. It can be a bad look if you're ignorant and talking down to the locals. I wish you the best of luck in finding a country that best suits you. There were times when I wanted to jump ship and live in one of the Caribbean countries or territories. It can feel pretty defeating to live in a right-wing country that only seems to be getting worse, but occasionally a little bit of hope shines through. Even seeing a leftist become mayor of some tiny town gives me hope lol
I feel that comrade. I hope things get better in Guatemala, truly. I guess I'm just out of hope that things will ever get better in the U.S. Especially as I've got some medical conditions that I'll go broke trying to pay for here.
I’m heading to bed but I hope you find the right fit. There are many countries out there that may fit your ideal. Costa Rica is another one you may want to look into. Better standard of living and great healthcare. You could probably find work as a tour guide or something like that. Best of luck to you!
