I can get EU citizenship which makes me very lucky

You said "can get", implying you haven't done so yet. My advice? Get the EU citizenship. Simply getting EU citizenship doesn't commit you to actually moving overseas.

That said, things aren't that bad right now, but it'll take time to process the paperwork. By the time things get bad enough to force you, you may not have the time to wait for your application to be processed. Plus, depending on the number of refugees, they may change the rules on who qualifies.

Worst thing that happens is that you spend some time, effort and money and you get some peace of mind, which isn't a terrible thing at all.

in a heartbeat. most modern countries are better than the united states in demonstrable, meaningful ways.

Already left in 2003 or so.

Healthcare financial risk was an issue, and I was there on an H1, so I just went home.

I fear I will soon loss my job soon because of the current USA political environment (fascism).

I've been planning for years to earn enough money to escape.

I am going straight to China if I can earn enough.

Urban environment, Great civil infrastructure, and I'd be able to spend the rest of my life as a professor and do research.

Probably, but I don't have that privilege and I'm not a high visibility undesirable.

If you're tired of Minnesota, come to Portland! We've got your back here.

But I'd get that citizenship anyway.

Yes because living here is a death sentence for me. Kinda like how it was before the Holocaust. Living in Germany when Hitler came into power was a death sentence for people like me.

I personally would not. I've lived most of my life now in a very blue area in a very red state, and I love it here. But, while I put the "B" in LGBTQ and am in a committed relationship that's far from monogamous, I'm superficially a cishet white man, and in general I'm treated with more respect by people who have irrational prejudices than many others.

I use that respect to advocate for the rights of others, and I'm not going to stop being an advocate in Texas. I have friends who are gay, lesbian, and trans who feel the same way and aren't going anywhere. I would like them all to fight by my side, but I also don't begrudge anyone who feels like they need to leave this state for safety reasons. This applies particularly acutely to parents of trans children who have to leave to access gender affirming care and not be subject to prosecution.

All that said, if you're not an EU citizen but are eligible for citizenship, that does sound like an enticing option. How long would it take you to establish citizenship there? At that point, you'd have dual citizenship and could freely move on either continent. So it boils down to whether you want that or not. Minnesota seems like a fine place to live (but way colder than I could ever tolerate), but so do some EU countries. How will you adapt to the culture? Will you be alright living in an entirely different culture or will you miss US culture too much? What does your current support system look like, and how would you feel about leaving it? You've got a lot to think about!

Really depends. Can I get a job outside the US quickly? Am I a citizen able to leave at will?

I'm in the process of moving to a blue state, but I'd be open to Europe

As a European, I'm biased and say go for it! They being said, Europe has a lot of different climates and cultures to offer so kinda depends what your looking for.

In a perfect world (where you have the money and time to do so), I would suggest you backpack around for 3+ months and see which vibes you like the most. At the very least, I would suggest visiting somewhere in Europe first (even just one place) if you haven't done so

Yes, England

Yes, ireland or china
