    It's a pretty easy assumption to make since I keep pointing out that it's expensive to move to another country and you keep brushing past it like cost is not something you really worry about.

      Not sure how productive this converstation can be at this stage.

      It seems like you really want me to be bougie or something.

      I'm saying that people make the more difficult + costly migration to the core all the time. We should be able to at least visualize doing the opposite if we believe the only alternative is a life of petty crimes and ineffective rebellion.

        The imperial core requires a constant influx of workers whose immigration status renders them helpless, so yes, it is relatively easy to come to the USA on a work visa. That is not how it works in reverse unless I guess you want to be a very bad english teacher in an asian country on a temporary visa (I do not), like I keep telling you. You have not woken me up to the idea of living in a different nation, I have been thinking about that since I was a teenager and have done the research. I keep telling you I lack the desirable profession and financial security to do this because that is the reality, I am not speculating, I have done my research. If you don't want to look bougie then maybe take it into consideration when people tell you their financial situation precludes them from doing a thing you seem to be speculating about.

        edit: like seriously, there are calculators that give you a real quick rundown of your eligibility for immigration, I'm not eligible, please internalize this information before replying about just imagining the possibility or some other "the secret" shit

          We're going in circles here.

          You're saying that shit's fucked and there's nothing but a life of crimes and rebellion for those born in the core.

          I'm saying that if you believe that, it should be enough motivation to move from the core and live a worthy life somewhere else. Anywhere else, surely.

          You're saying that's not possible for you in particular because the immigration eligibilty webpage said no. Not a good attitude for someone preparing for a life of crimes and rebellion tbh.

          I'm maintaining that it's absolutely possible to move from the core. People do it every day, without the desirable professions and financial security you seem to need. Maybe you have higher requirements than these people.

            You're making a lot of silly assumptions and your assertions are not worth regarding. This hasn't been a worthwhile engagement, but keep telling people to imagine being somewhere else or whatever "the secret" level shit you're on.

            edit: also please be aware your assertions amount to bourgeois jacketing yourself, maybe make a new account to prevent anyone from realizing you're exempt from cost analysis
