(16,843 posts)That's why, if I stay in America, I feel like I might as well stay where I am. At least I know what the evils are here and how to avoid them. But as far as people go, they aren't bad here.
There are a lot of people here who haven't gotten vaccinated for whatever reason and they don't wear masks like they should. But they aren't militant about it or anything and they don't mess with people who do wear masks. It's not so much that they're being political about it, they just have a strong libertarian streak. They don't like rules.
But most of them would help you in a minute if you asked. My feelings about this place are complex. I've lived most of my life here, and I generally love the people here despite their faults and they seem to feel the same about me, despite my faults. I would hate to leave them. But I don't know what to expect from the next few years in America. I feel like something momentous is happening here, and it isn't good. Maybe I should just be prepared for any eventuality. It's causing some anxiety.
