"Im transgender and thinking of moving to Italy"
All of these burgers will get a huge shock when they move to southern european countries like spain italy and portugal with majority catholic populations. They will realise the US is actually one of the most Pro-LGBT rights countries in the world its not even close to most of europe.

For perspective: Here open gay couples are extremely rare and dont even hold hands in public, transgenders dont exist, I have lived in the capital city (most progressive city) of Portugal for 17 years, and neither me or any of my friends and family ever heard of or saw a transgender in Portugal ( ALL the news we get from them is foreign). Also non-binary doesnt exist because our languages dont even allow it (no gender neutral)

People think it's progressive on every issue because of drug decriminalization, but my understanding is that was a last resort to fix a problem

Portugal in the 90s had a huge heroin problem with highest overdose rates in Europe, decriminalization basicaly made it so drugs werent a criminal offense but more of a "health offense" basically instead of being sent to jail you are sent to rehab programs with proper substitutes

Your country is what dipshits in my home state of Oregon used to justify our drug decriminalization. Why they failed to account for was the fact that 1. hard drugs were basically already legal in Portland and 2. we took literally no other steps towards drug addiction treatment. Meth zombies are just allowed to roll around on the streets screaming at demons all day long.

Probably cut with other shit. Honestly sounds like crack, considering its one where you're still mega-fricked up even when not on it since it tears through your dopaminergic system leaving nothing behind. Honestly the only side effect of massive meth usage (for only a few years) is mild stim-induced ADD when you're off.

Portuguese socialist party government cucked Portuguese people with "golden visa" program, basically if you make 75000$ a year (basically nothing to american standards but its a lot here) you get a free visa with no strings attactched (selling citizenship). Because americans have so much money compared to us they come here buy all the houses and now portuguese can only leave their parents home when they are 30 years old and saved enough money.

Portuguese Golden Visa provides a range of relatively affordable investment options for you to choose from in obtaining your residence permit,
You are only required to spend a minimum of seven days in Portugal per year,
Portugal Golden Visa Program gives you visa-free access to the Schengen states,
You can become a Portuguese citizen within five to six years,
Portugal is a safe, secure, affordable country with a high quality of life, solid infrastructure, superb climate, and good health and education systems.

also its 75k XD i lost a 0 by accident but still not a lot for burger standards, and with that kind of wage you are richer than 90% of portuguese and wil llive like a king unironically
Most of your foreign source income is exempt from taxation for 10 years. If the foreign income is from a country Portugal has a DTA with, then it will not be taxed in Portugal,
If you have a βhigh-added-valueβ profession, you will get generous tax exemptions.
Even if your income is from a Portuguese source, the taxation is still at lower rates for the expats

Maybe you'll find this interesting, but I get ads (google ads or w/e) to "come live in Portugal". General gist, they're looking for Americans who work remote to move and live in some village(s) in Portugal. Generically they say CoL is very low (maybe 1500/month) for a very high standard of living (clean and beautiful environment, excellent food, low crime, and otherwise quaint and relaxed living). Seems nice tbh, just feel that you'll perpetually be an unwanted guest in the country.

Like pretty much all Poortuguese youth? Portugal has the highest emigration rate in all of Europe, young people can't wait til they finish college to move to France/Switzerland/Luxembourg/the UK, a job that many Brazilians go after (including a relative of mine) is taking care of the elderly, since Portugal is full of them, and there is a large demand for nursing due to the lack of youngsters and tons of oldcels.
Ngl tho having a chat with the old Poortuguese folks is truly very cool, you have everyone from die-hard Salazarists who were born in the Overseas Provinces and think that Portugal is ran by Freemasons, to the Communists who say that the "Socialist" Party is secretly ran by Rightoids and are permanently stuck in 1974, to the 95-year-old grandmas who only consume Brazilian media and can't wait to visit Brazil, though you sadly know that given their physical health, this isn't gonna happen, so you can just describe to them what life in Bostil is like before they kick the bucket, like a lady I was a friend of did, RIP
Edit: Also the most fricked up thing I saw in Portugal that perfectly describes its situation is that I out of nowhere got a funeral home ad on YouTube

In Italy the highest authority organisation on language came out and basically called people trying to push gender neutral Italian language r-slurs for even trying, it was a brutal, academically sound takedown.

An important thing to note is that the majority of Trans people in Europe (not counting the UK) are Homosexual AMABs who are exclusively interested in men, most of them are also s*x workers imported (or trafficked) from Brazil or other third-world countries solely for that, same thing for Asia and South America, this social media identity politics stuff is alien to them.

Here in Brazil referring to Asians with nicknames like this is not considered offensive the majority of the times, given that we have had East Asian immigrants that are very assimilated into Braziloid society since 1908 (arguably since 1812 if you count people from Macau), calling people Japs (Japinhas) is not offensive at all, Japcels refer to themselves as such all the time
Not 100% sure about whenever "Chinoca" is considered negative, but I hear it being mentioned much more frequently than elsewhere, but the majority of the times we just say "loja do China" instead.
