I’m asking because climate change is fucking my shit up, has made my hometown a ticking time bomb, and everything in Puerto Rico is just so fucking depressing. I can’t take living here any more. Sure, I don’t feel lonely living with my parents but this near yearly post traumatic stressor of hurricane season, combined with the brutal austerity measures enacted by the Junta de shit eaters (aka the great Satan) has made living here a burden as we are victim to the worst capitalism has to offer.
I can’t do the whole ‘stay to fight the great satan’ thing anymore. Nobody actually cares anymore about the privatization, the strangling of the public and education sectors. All the cool young proles have left the fucking island and all that remains are rich failsons and libs. There is no commitment to any cause, if people were actually committed to independence we’d have more Albizu Campos and Bhagat Singhs. I can’t do shit anyways because I’m an immigrant despite growing up here.
I think I’m ready to move to the States on a permanent basis and I might have flexibility choosing where i want to go. I don’t mean to give up but my personal life has taken a toll here as friends keep on leaving and thE diversity and amount of people I meet is so low.
about myself: i am nb, I am dark skinned, i don’t like racists and bigots be they chuds or libs. What’s a place I can go to where i can thrive in my personal life and as a leftist?
I would look in NY. The city itself is expensive but would probably be the best as far as not being full of chuds or racist liberals.
Upstate is going to fair well with climate change I think; no major natural disasters and lots of fresh water and farming. Finger lakes region will pry fair best for climate change but its kind of rural and expensive and wasn’t for me, personally.
Buffalo will be accepting and fairly cheap and is the biggest city upstate. Rochester has its goods and bads but is overall pretty nice and inexpensive with a lot of job opportunities. I live in Syracuse and it will fair well for climate change and is inexpensive but probably has the largest chud population of the major upstate cities.
