Guess I'm a moron for thinking 11 months of waiting is worth a lifetime of better quality? Lol
This is what I mean by people are living in misery as a choice
For the second time now, I invite you to reread the part where I said people with "useful skills": https://lemmy.ml/comment/18010515
I'm not denying that people dealt a bad hand can't easily immigrate.. But I am saying people who can immigrate seem not to. Which makes me believe their misery is their choice
You won't convince people with a victim mentality. I have migrated twice in my life as well. It's not easy but for many people if they can't install it as an app on their phone they won't do it. If a farmer from tunesia or a cleaning lady from India can emigrate, anyone sufficiently motivated can.
