I’m not sure if this is the right community for this question, but it says “no stupid question” so here goes. I’m an Israeli who now lives in the US, but I am considering permanently residing in the US or elsewhere (perhaps somewhere in Europe or Canada) because I’ve become kinda disillusioned with Israel for a variety of reasons (the war in Gaza being one of them, the erosion of democracy by Likud being another, and etc) but is that cowardly to leave? Should I go back and try to change society or should I just leave for good? Thanks for your time.

    It’s your choice.

    The whole “be the active person who stops the riches from ruining earth” trope is a lie.

    The current US is just as bad as Israel if not worse.

    All the losers who either flunked high school or flunked, but had daddy to pay their way have brought fascism back en masses.

    If you have the luxury to move to Sweden, or the Bahammas, as far as I’m concerned, do it.

    You’ll be in a better place when Israel nukes Iran, WWIII pops off, and the US cripples the internet/critical infrastructure around the world.
