The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

I have to live through another Republican presidency I may have to stop thinking about leaving the country and actually do it. The Democrats are awful too, but at least not to an extent that makes me embarrassed to say that I am an American.

I'm not sure where I'll go. Canada seems to be the default for most ex-Americans, and I like it there, but I've only been there during the summer. Besides, I don't want to live in a British Commonwealth country because I dislike monarchies (even constitutional ones). That pretty much limits me to Ireland if I wish to stay within the Anglosphere.

I know that there are no countries that have ever existed that precisely match my political ideals, but I hope that I can find one that at least could be called "sane", even if it is still somewhat capitalistic.

Yeah, I know I sound incredibly naive right now, don't I? I know my country has a fair number of redeeming aspects, but they are definitely getting harder and harder for me to see without specifically trying to.

Does anyone ever has the fear when entering a room late at night that the room turns out not to be as empty as you had thought? Maybe I've just seen too many horror films already and read too many creepypastas... :?

Know any second languages? Either way, there are enough places, where English would do at first, too.

USA isn't exactly the only nation with free elections... and I'd argue that there are even countries with "freer" elections. Other than that, I understand where you're coming from.
