Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

are there any arguments for staying in the US/Europe/Japan/Aus/SK regions if you can find a way to start a life elsewhere? (I have found one) (hexbear.net)

If you want to take down western led neoliberalism and capitalism, you have more power inside the belly of the beast. That said, you can still support it wherever you go too

I specifically will not. If my options are teaching English in China or here in the US the power level is way in favor of over there. Whatever resources I will aquire will be more useful that way, and by contributing to society over there I can be assured my taxes aren't going directly to genocide

I hate to break it to you bestie but teaching English in China is not better than however much you pay in taxes and doing any organizing be frrrr

Ah yes, the only options. Teaching English in China, and moving to Europe.
