Ireland

I'm looking to flee my country before it implodes. Many of my friends are fleeing too and they all have their own plans. For what it's worth, I'm gay, and I really doubt the Nazis will leave us alone this time.

I vacationed in Ireland briefly with an ex a year or two ago, but caught covid and spent most of the time resting. I didn't really learn anything about what life in Ireland is like. I'm reading that the people are social and friendly, the food isn't great (though I'm an american and I mostly eat trash anyway) and public transit isnt really great in southern ireland but totally doable in northern ireland.

I'm trying to figure out if I can make this work. I'll miss my sister and the nieces and nephews and a few friends. Material things I can always buy again someday. But it's no longer safe here. My country is dying. I need to make plans and my friends offer might be the best chance I get. I just know nothing about ireland.

A few friends of mine explained the Irish version of Republican to me. VERY different from American republicans.
