This is why everyone needs protection from a work culture that burns through people.

You are all welcome to Europe for that. Come on over.

You don’t want us…..

I dunno, if they create a braindrain, I’m okay with that.

[–] velindora@lemmy.cafe 6 points 11 hours ago

They don’t need to leave the US to create a brain drain. It’s happening naturally haha

For now anyway. Europe is not immune to fascism.

Definitely not, but we still have much more favorable worker laws.

No thanks, I don't want to see this side of the ocean get ruined too

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 6 points 6 hours ago

Actually we're managing that on our own soon, I think. 🫣

It doesn’t seem like Europe is very open to American immigrants these days….

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 1 points 2 minutes ago

Weeell, I guess there's the disclaimer:

We're/I'm open to Americans who are progressive and have common sense and respect people's equal worth and value. Let's make the world a better place together.

Right, I'll just conjure up a work visa for my bullshit job, sell my house and belongings, and leave my family and friends behind. Super easy, barely an inconvenience.

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

🤷‍♂️ Just saying you're welcome to come afaic. 🙂
