PSA if you have one grandparent who was born in Ireland then you may qualify for Irish citizenship. Getting all the needed documentation together and going through the whole process can easily take the better part of a year, so don’t delay.
Even with citizenship, moving abroad is a lot of work and expense. I no longer have any illusions that “cooler heads will prevail” or that “the adults in the room will maintain the status quo”, so having an out, even an extremely expensive one, is very comforting.
Moving closer to Canada was not unintentional for me. We got our whole family passports after Biden won, I knew it was only a reprieve. All that said, we can’t afford to move again, if it happens we’ll be fleeing as refugees.
At the very least, I’m gonna get my family out of this hell-hole that is Florida. I’m trying to stay in order to convince as many republicans to split their vote as I can though.
I know a lot of dumb-shit brain washed people that otherwise mean well, but have become oblivious to the hole they’ve found themselves in. So I have a tendency to befriend them and tell them that the only way we’re gonna get any change is if they vote third party. Convincing them to vote Biden is a step too far for most, so I’m just trying to disrupt the cheeto as much as I can locally. And of course my family is voting blue down the whole ticket.
I could easily move myself and my family back to the UK (easily in the sense that we would have no residency issues; but finances would be a headache). And it’s something my wife and I have discussed.
The problem is that the UK is a fucking mess right now as well.
