Running away isn't my style, nor is it an answer. I may be disgusted at the way the extremists have degraded the concept of patriotism, but I still consider myself a patriot -- I'm proud of what this country stands for, and want to see it restored.

Besides, if things continue to get worse, moving to another country is no sort of solution. A true American Empire is a danger to *everyone*. America working in conjunction with the rest of the world can be a great force for good; bestriding it, a source of potential horror.

And it's not as if anywhere is a panacea. England and Italy are both showing their own signs of resurgent authoritarianism, and most of Europe has flirted with it sometime in the past two decades. This is an ongoing fight, that has to be dealt with, rather than escaped.
