I generally agree with what you’re saying, but just as a side thing, would you happen to know of any countries that accept permanent residents without the hoops of a green card or equivalent? (Most countries seem to make it very hard for anyone to immigrate.)

I just ran across this article: https://www.wework.com/creator/start-your-business/6-countries-where-its-easy-to-snag-a-work-visa/ … For me, it sounds like using DAFT to go to the Netherlands might be a possibility if things get bad.

Oooh—primo tip! While I hope not to have to move to another country, I wouldn’t necessarily rule things out if things get bad. So if you might want to, feel free to CC me on related tweets if you happen to discover any gems along these lines. (Or not—it’s up to you.)

Will do! I also have a friend in Ireland that owns a company, so they might be able to hire me if things get bad.

Right on! I hope that things don’t get bad, but if they do, it can’t hurt to be prepared, eh?

Hmm, on second thought, apparently the Netherlands is also dealing with white nationalism: https://foreignpolicy.com/2018/03/20/the-new-dutch-disease-is-white-nationalism/ … I'll have to do more research.
-
Oh my—that’s a good catch. And now I’m curious about how the elections from the article panned out!

Looking at one of the nationalist parties in question (PVV), they've been steadily gaining seats since 2006 and since 2017 are now the second largest party in the Dutch Parliment. So the Netherlands aren't safe from nationalism either. :-( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Party_for_Freedom …

I’ve only updated my name, I have a letter for a marker change (to M only for safety reasons) but I’m afraid if I send it at this point something will happen to it or it’ll be destroyed or not returned if rejected. So I’m keeping the F for now. It has a recent photo at least.
