I don't know how to say this in a way that people will believe, but unless the patriarchy is dismantled in the next 25 years, the US will cease to exist because women will have simple withdrawn from the social process. Why continue to create new people to throw into the financial/social/political woodchipper that is the US when opting out of it will eventually cause it to end in demographic collapse? If you want to save it, make it worth saving.
If, as the article says, the overturn of the constitutional protection of abortions wasn't the greatest causing factor towards a desire to leave the country, what does this demographic seek to gain in other countries such as Canada?
Popular problems such as the housing and employment crises are only worse in our northern neighbors.
They won't be burned at the stake, so there's a lot going on there. USA doesn't want them to have a life, and will gleefully let them die from basic medical complications.
All in all, Canada lacks the clear and present "cruelty is the point" the US has gone all in on.
guys, it really was worth looking at the article: the number is 40% of women ages 15-44 would love to leave US if good opportunity came along. That's insane. But then again, the political situation in the US is insane, too.
> But then again, the political situation in the US is insane, too.
Yup.
> would love to leave US if good opportunity came along.
Yeah, well, that's the problem. They need a good opportunity compared to staying in the US. That is, Afghanistan or Yemen might allow them to enter, but that's not an option - they want something better than what they have here. Well, that's fair - that's how many of our ancestors wound up here, after all. But the fact is, despite the insanity here, there aren't tons of "better" out there for people to go to.
Could things get enough worse here for that to change? Certainly. Could they do so surprisingly quickly? Also yes. But right now, things aren't worse here than they are in much of the world.
Try it: anyone younger than 30 can get a year-long working holiday VISA in New Zealand or Australia. The conditions are not that difficult, although you obviously can't be broke. See what opportunities come up!
Somehow we have been building a not-that-social workerbee america. It's not that romantic to live in the US. Add to that more female independence, lower marriage, easy divorce and fewer families.
Where is the law that forces them to get impregnated? Advocating for killing offspring because of refusal for personal responsibity is not something a healthy adult would be for.
Any examples for this thesis?
The next big question is "Are they actually moving?"
