Just pick up and leave. Literally. And do not feel bad about it. Also ignore other people opinions. There is like a dozen of places to go to. The easiest? UAE freelancer visa. Yes I know, I know: "... but but the drones! The collapse!" It's all BS. When / if something happens there – go to Panama. Then Costa Rica. You are not alone on this route - but only if you really committed to your freedom. If not - just sit there and vote democrats. LOL.

- drivebyhooting 26d agoThat’s no way to live. How can you ever have a family or be part of a community? And what’s your plan for when you’re old?
- fooqux 26d agoWhy would I want to move to an objectively more subjugated place? Besides that, you say to just pick up and leave as if it were that easy. And I suppose if I followed your advice, it could be. Get a divorce, not care about the kids (sorry, but I'm not bringing my daughters there), ignore the fact my parents are in their 80s, server all my friendships, likely end my career. Not all freedoms are good. Or rather some bindings, like family and other loved ones, are worth it.
- inigyou 26d agoI think this got flagged for the hyperbolic tone but you are directionally correct and I vouched this because I believe more people need to see it. Yes, leaving is hard. So is living under fascism. Do it anyway. You have a community? Bring the community. Yes it's very hard and not always possible. You have to try hard. Your other morally correct option is to stand and fight.
