I know places like Portugal and Spain are going through serious housing crunches right new and I know expats often exaggerate those problems. So where can an American flee oppression without just oppressing someone else?
For context: I’m a progressive lefty, thinking about long term relocation options cause the fash is getting pretty thick around here.
Edit: I know immigrants and expats (US or other) are not solely responsible overseas housing issues, but housing issues definitely exist across Portugal, Netherlands, etc. I don’t want to increase that burden and would feel shitty if my housing offer outbid 300 local applicants.


You mean “US immigrants” ? Housing is expansive because of tourism, speculation and secondary house; not immigration. If yo want to not spread oppressions, get along with organization that fight the rise of fascism where you are going, and helping people oppressed by the US state in US and elsewhere. Do not think you helping the people you are joining in avoiding their struggles. This is yours now
