It is impossible to turn the tide of culture in the US at this point. The vast federal bureaucracy has been carefully cultivated and sourced for several generations by ideological zealots from academia. There is no simple solution, but to let things hit rock bottom and then hope for a popular uprising that will overturn the establishment. For this to happen it will take at least another ten to twenty years. Mass immigration also slows down this process, as the newcomers come from even worse political environments, so they do not see the declining state of affairs as a big issue. The social pressures will have to become unbearable even for those with higher tolerance for disorder, for the tide to start turning. But, until then, most people who like orderly, civilized societies will have to endure a worsening chaos. Therefore, it is better to act now and make the move. Life is short. And few reasonable people aren’t going to change an entire culture based on grievances, entitlement, instant gratification and organized chaos!
I'm from Sweden. You can change the word US to Sweden and you would still be 100% correct in your assessment. This is why moved over a decade ago - the best choice I've ever made.
They have radical illegals working as police officers in Chicago now.. those empty facilities for COVID and empty commerical buildings are going to be FEMA camps.

Im concerned that , as our government seek s more and more and panders to those have done nothing to advance themselves, that our assets will become more and more attractive. Remember how Revenue Canada put your primary residence on tax forms a few years ago.
@@cassciti896 Nothing too exotic. As Ken says about his wife, mine too is a teacher and still believes the government has our best interests at heart. Ecuador has been on my radar, same rough time zone as Canada, flights are better then eastern Europe. If I was going to cut all ties, I would look at Indonesia as , regardless of what they say, Eastern Europe in part of the EU and under a lot of pressure to conform.
@@cassciti896I'm a Canadian looking to divest my assets from Canada and buy bitcoin. More important than where you go is HOW. If your assets cannot be taken / sanctioned, you can have a lot of freedom wherever you are. Without a job or assets in Canada you can also leave if it gets wonky again. It likely will, but it could happen elsewhere so be flexible and liquid. Everything you have to lose is something that a government can leverage.
I am from Azerbaijan - one of the countries from areas mentioned in the clip. I lived in the US for 3 years and decided not to stay there. When I tell my friends that the US is literally the last place on Earth I'd prefer to live, they get very surprised. There is no way a man with my mindset keeps his family there... Btw, this happened 13 years ago, imagine the difference today.
I hate to admit it, but the US peaked culturally in the '80s to '90s. It's been on a precipitous decline ever since, and I don't think that it's possible to stop the bleeding regardless of which politicians are voted in. It's really sad because growing up as a Canadian in the '90s, I always looked up to America as the bastion of freedom.
I never would've suspected someone from a country like Azerbaijan ,.whose neighbors are,. Turkey, Syria, Iraq,. and The former soviet republic of Georgia to even remotely be ready for American culture in any way shape, form of fashion LoL! Even people from more liberal Muslim countries like Egypt,.or the UAE,.would really have some serious issues with how open and liberal American culture is,..LoL
@@dereksbooks Nothing that happened under Ronald Reagan represents any "peak in US culture".LoL And actually,..if your using real metrics, such as economic growth, manufacturing and standards of living as your measurement, you get a much earlier era! America , in the 20-30 years post WW2 era,..was at its peak. In 1972 the average white collar male professional earned between $9,000 to $12,000 on average,.but the average new American home only cost between $20,000 to $30,000 therefore most hard working peoples could pay off their mortgage in just over 3 years and still have enough left over for other nice things ( new car, new kids, travel,.etc etc ) THAT purchasing power for property was certainly not possible in the 80s and 90s and sure as hell sounds like FANTASY today,..LoL The US ended WW2 as the only country with any massive manufacturing base,.
@@terryshrk bro, your thinking is absolutely correct, however its not applicable. I had a blast during my time there, but it was only good for fun, which I am not wasting my life on. Plus I have traveled quite a bit and I'm not saying the same things about other western countries sharing the same culture as the US. There's something "special" about this place ))
Australian ,25 years living in Japan. Not perfect, but safe society, polite, clean,mostly efficient. Aus. is a woke hellhole now. Glad I married a Jgirl and moved to Japanese countryside. Nobody really even uses credit cards out here,cash is king.
Another Aussie here, planning to do the same thing but live in Kanzawa. Already speak some Japanese, planning to get my NLPT3 before I go. I know the country has it's issues but beyond the woke I'm also tired of "unconsciously inconsiderate" behaviour that drives the modern West. Also thank God for cash, my Accountant friend was telling me today that there's going to be an "AED: Australian Electronic Dollar" introduced soon that's on a blockchain. Cash-free society, no privacy for you!
@@deanchurHey guys! Would you even consider ever asking the Aussie embassy for help in case of WW3? Would you rather become Japanese and never return to AU? I'm serious because I'm not sure if the Aussie embassy people will be helpful in disastrous situations. I even heard that they refused entry even to Aussies during COVID.
After watching many videos like these I'm honestly excited to work hard to get a second home outside of the United States. I want to go to a country that still respects traditional values and encourages most people to have them.
I lived in Turkey and Russia last year and didn't see anything woke at all. Also I've lived in Australia before that and the USA after, and both of them have high wokeness.
Respected British anthropology professor, Dr. Edward Dutton, has demonstrated that “LEFTISM” is due to genetic mutations caused by poor breeding strategies. 🤡 To put it simply, in recent decades, those persons who exhibit leftist traits such as egalitarianism, feminism, gynocentrism, socialism, multiculturalism, transvestism, homosexuality, perverse morality, and laziness, have been reproducing at rates far exceeding the previous norm, leading to an explosion of insane, narcissistic SOCIOPATHS in (mostly) Western societies.
Australia is probably worse than the US. At least the US has a right wing, here in Australia the Liberal Party is impotent. Look at what happened to Moira Deeming.
I'm in Australia. It's going from bad to worse down here. The current government is trying to push through a bill that will make the government the only source of information and being able to determine what is "misinformation". Our major parties politicians are super woke.
This video is perfect timing. I’m about to be a first time father in 2 months and I’m scared of where things are heading. I’ve been looking for a way to back out of society. I just don’t want my daughter to grow up in a place where more and more adults are finding it okay to talk about sexual stuff with other peoples kids
I am from the UK and have a Thai wife and a 5 year old child. Initially we were going to raise her in the UK but after seeing what was being taught in the schools we decided not to. We are now living in Thailand and have her in a Thai owned school with European and Phillipino teachers. I couldn't have dreamed of better. There is no woke and she is very happy here. I would highly recommend it to any parent looking to escape the madness that is currently taking place in the West. My advice if you want to escape woke is migrate to Asia or Eastern Europe.
Have you thought about homeschooling your daughter? There is ways you can avoid the public education system but also have them in some type of homeschooling system so you don't have to worry about them becoming socially awkward. Regardless congratulations and good luck! 🫡
I think it must be mentioned here the differences between childhoods in each place. It is my belief that here in the USA, everyone is being treated like they are 10 years younger than they actually are, and this has had a profound effect on culture. 16 years olds being treated like 6 year olds and being discouraged from getting drivers licenses. 35 year olds being treated like 25 year olds and being told they "don't know what the real world of work is like" (despite having been in the workforce for ~15 years). 20 year old college students being told that every time they feel offended, it is a "trauma response" and "an act of violence" that requires running to the nearest authority figure to solve for them. No matter what you think about "woke culture," that (and other social phenomena adjacent to it) is a direct result of the above.
Wow good resume I'm totally agree with you. People in their 25's are treated like kids, because they still don't know what are they doing or how this world works, like dude they are ADULT
Take families off of the farm/ranch 100 years ago and suddenly they all become worthless; ladies ability to cook/clean/make a dress; mens ability to build/repair any silly thing. . .
This happens in many countries. Practically a whole continent, Asia, is like this. Plus a whole bunch of other places. This is not US specific by any means.....from someone who has been to all 193 UN countries.
I'm an American. I'm trying to convince my husband to think about moving to a different country. The culture here is rot and people are so angry and hostile here and getting worse.
Angry and hostile people is basically most of Europe right now and it will only get worse with mass migration. Canada is rotten now. Are you willing to leave the US for a more dangerous poor country? You don’t have to leave the US, just choose a better state: there’s still cities in America with a strong sense of community. Just leave the large cities if you can.
You can be in a small town in Germany, Italy , Austriaor France and feel a breath of fresh air, incredible history, and more but like anywhere these days bigger cities are more chaotic. I live in northern Italy in a smaller town and love it because I wanted to be near Austria but remain in a place that values good balance of life.
@@VincitOmniaVeritas7 this is spot on and exactly what i did. i moved an hour away from my work to a small town. completely different vibes. everyone minds their own business. we all live on acres so it's a safe place to open your back door and let your little ones play. i'm only watching these videos to find a decent place to retire later when i have the money to. have to make the most of living in the US until then.
I didn’t leave the United States; the United States left me a long time ago. Proud TEXIT supporter checking in. Looking forward to one day helping make a future Republic of Texas a Nomad Capitalist destination 😎🤙
A lot of the weirdness is due to the affect of social media. It's a global phenomenon where social media is literally frying our brains. It just so happens that the US is perhaps the most exposed to social media due to language and early adoption of the technology. Non English speaking countries are bit less exposed but it's coming for them as well.
I love this guy. He's great. At a deep level, he's talking about something I greatly identify with in moving abroad, that none of my American friends or family ever consider.
I moved with my family from Holland to Montenegro, wokeness is getting out of hand, and I don't want my little daughter learning about sex in kindergarten
Hungary is a good place too to avoid wokeness. Many Dutch people are moving to Hungary. “In June 2021, the Hungarian parliament adopted a law on child protection that introduced Europe’s first legislation designed to protect kids from gender ideology in schools, reinforce previous family protection measures, and equip courts with tools to impose more serious sentences on those that commit sex crimes against children. In a referendum on April 3, 2022, almost 4 million Hungarians affirmed the government’s policy direction voting that child protection must remain a priority and that decisions regarding their children’s upbringing must remain the sole right of parents.”
@@freedomfighter1734 as a hungarian i can only say this: on one hand everything you said is true, but on the other hand wokeism so absent in society to the point where the legislation give more of a wtich hunt wibe for those who dont follow what the hell is going on in the West (yes, most hungarians dont even have an idea what "wokeness" is, even Hollywood movies very often jsut dont make any sense at all for most ppl., simply put, the ideology just dont exist at all) than an actually necessary law which needed desperately (in a way, even for me it feels more liek a propaganda stunt aimed towards westerners specifically to atract them, but thats jsut the cynical hungarian talking from me). Personally i atribute this to 3 factor: -the hungarian language is gender neutral. There is only one gender neutral "pronounce" in the language, and no room to make up new ones. This basically meant to most of the gender ideology is literally incompatible with the hungarian language (and by extension beyond the comprehension of anyone who dotn speak a foreign language... whick bring us to...) -only 20% of the hungarian population is even capable of having a conversation on ANY foreign language - the lowest in Europe. It literally further isolated Hungarian society from this ideology -and lastly, its a post-communist country. Ppl. are generally VERY cynical and the greatest national value (due historical circumstances) is literally adaptability (the ability to endure hardship - the very antithesis of wokeism). That beeing said, i can only recommend Hungary with reservations, since like i mentioned only 1 out of 5 ppl. speak any foreign language (and half of them likely speak only german as foreign language, NOT english), and the hungarian language is also one of the hardest in not just Europe, but in the world.
@@JayandSarah Yes, the conservatives are obsessed with conspiracy theories. Everything bad in society is due to some conspiracy or other. This makes about as much sense as some of the woke nonsense on the left.
I visited Malaysia this summer and I felt like I've been missing out on a lot of things my whole life. Kuala Lampur is like a melting pot of all the Asian cultures, from Japanese to Korean to Chinese and Thai, you can find elements of all these cultures there, it's like a window to the Southeast Asia region. It's a fairly organized country, and the living is pretty cheap, cheaper than most Western countries.
As a Malaysian, I welcome you to come legally, and I feel you are probably gonna be fine here. But know also our latest debacle is about banning stupid bands from performing in the country cause they came in and kissed each other (male to male) in front of a crowd after giving an irrelevant speech during the concert about us. We are consistently on the top 5 most homophobic countries (according to the western powers).
@@polkalamypekopeko2969 "Irrelevant speech". The speech was unprovoked, yet they went on and on specifically to challenge our law and society. If Muslim tablighs entered a night club and preaches people to repent from sinning, would you keep this same nonchalant attitude? Of course not. I remember your username because you tried to instigate false belief that the malays are terrorists when the truth is that we are one of the most tolerant people that we even celebrate those who appropriate our culture without due respect (Nyonya Peranakan). I pray you will have your financial set soon so that you may leave us behind and never talk about us again. I have few family's friend that were covert racists like you, and they end up taking MM2H after decades of leaving since the only way to teach you racists of Malaysian worth is to have you lose it in the first place.
I have spent a lot of time in Eastern Europe as well and you are spot on when it comes to maturity in young people. Eastern Europeans are just a lot more capable at a younger age.
I'm from the Balkans. North Macedonia specifically. The reason probably for that is that we don't really have a lot of opportunities. That's why people are more like Jack of all trades type of characters. We learn all the time, we change jobs and careers and we adapt. Let me give you an example: We still can't be paid through PayPal. So opening a business for yourself online is out of the question (it's becoming much better though). So when you have things like that you learn how to adapt and become better much faster. However, there are issues here. Lots of them. Corruption, lack of opportunity, misogyny (some places more than others), low wages high cost of living etc.
@@HexYanMost of the things you named like corruption and high cost of living rings very much the same in the West. Corruption is just a little less obvious due to it being indirect and occluded.
I think it’s also because you have one generation who totally lost out on the regional development. My EE colleagues had to hold key positions because there were no seniors above them.
That is exactly how young people were when I was a kid in the US, in rural NY state. Kids were actually encouraged to become capable and mature. The current trend is to create a herd-like mass of helpless, dependent youth that never really take charge of their own lives.
I'm more concerned about which countries handled the COVID crisis the best in regard to personal freedoms. For example, Costa Rica had a mandate for all children over six months to take the C19 potion, which is absolutely crazy. Doctors were given the authority to override parents' wishes. These are things we need to consider for the next lockdown because there WILL be a next lockdown.
@@revivahealing8437 It IS! What's the point of living this great lifestyle if the government will just storm in and do whatever it wants with you and your children? Now, you're in a foreign country, away from your support system AND enslaved! I really hope Nomad Capitalist really looks into this.
@@mochagypsymagick Yeah, I agree 100%. I was trying to pay attention to the worst offenders at the time. Australia and Canada were horrible. Mexico seemed to be pretty lenient.
@@revivahealing8437 Yes. If I remember correctly, Mexico had some rules and the people rebelled against them! So, another important thing to look at is how compliant the people are culturally. In Costa Rica, where I'm currently living, the people are very trusting of the government and media, and have the outlook of "going along to get along". When the gov't handed down that C19 mandate, most of them offered up their kids willingly! Beautiful people, but too many of them are sheep, which is dangerous.
Actually one of the reasons i have choose Poland is because of that, I'm doing everything to get there as soon as possible. I want to live in a traditional society. Great content guys keep it up!!
The Polish people are nice but it is still European Union, meaning WEF globalists and very woke agenda's , even for Poland. Only country that is good is Hungary.
I'm from the UK and recently visited Serbia, Kenya and UAE, what a pleasure not to have identity politics thrust in your face, no rainbow or Palestinian flags, the rights of the individual is under threat in the UK.
Wokeism doesn't really exist outside the US. The reason for that is that wokeism is just another fabricated bogeyman that is being used by the political right in America to scare the low-information MAGA crowd into supporting their authoritarian aims.
Be sure to describe what Woke is for you. Because that started as a black terminologies, describing a higher level of consciousness and perception of institutionalized racism. So many Black people hear it as a dog whistle for black hate racism and sexism! Now, right wing people have stolen terminology, and while, still serving as a dog whistle for racism and sexism, they use it for many other things like describing liberal/progressive policies.
Andrew I just have to add I’m very glad to still see you at the forefront of your videos. After you made that video about a year ago stating you were going to step back & make less while utilizing more of your team in them. I believe that’s awesome and shows leadership and opportunity, I still prefer you and your stories, it’s what makes it all link together. The stories and experiences first hand are very interesting it wouldn’t be the same without you 😅.
His intent was sincere but views went way down and IMO felt obliged to come back. We all get married to not just the content but the presenter. Transitions like that are possible but take a much longer transition time and format. I believe PBD is doing that... anyway love this channel and the message. And for westerners to open their eyes there are options to living around the world. Seriously USA cities are literally 3rd world compared to China. And China doesn't have corporations wokeness trying to sexualize children. American society and western society is in a literally hot civil war.
Wow. I am so thankful to find this channel. I’m a Canadian that’s been living in the US for the last 5+ years (in red and blue states) and neither country is bringing me happiness. Nomad is showing options. Thank you for posting all of this information
I'm Brazilian, and I presently live in Canada. If you wish to stay in America, consider Panama. I feel it is an appropriate place to spend the next 15 years. I have extensive knowledge of South America. Uruguay is the only location worth living in South America. The other nations are dominated by a single political party (Foro de São Paulo), which has begun to destroy everything. Venezuela was first.
The woke is getting stronger and more present in everything. The best thing I can think to do is learn to build passive income and create a skill set that can be used anywhere. The corporate world is deep into the wokeness and if you don't like it you need to learn how to be self sufficient. You need to start thinking outside the box to escape the prison. Passive income is best because it always works even when you do not. A RU-vid channel done correctly can provide you with this and at most you need an hour to two a day to make and edit a video. If you want to be free, you have to start by thinking creatively as someone who is free. Conventional methods will not give it to you. Your parents grew up in a different time that no longer exists. Only this moment and this current does and to be free you must adapt.
Alternatively, you could learn a truly useful skill, whether it be in a technical/scientific/medical field, in marketing, trades (electrician, carpenter, welder, etc), etc, and make an actual contribution to society. While this won't be as easy as cooking up some way to get 'passive income', most human experience to date has shown that providing an actual useful service or product leads to prosperity.
Don't rely on utube for money. They can shut down overnight. Better to know how to grow food, cook, preserve. Learn a trade. Utube? That's hilarious. It's owned by corporate America. We've all watched channels being taken down because they didn't follow the cv- mantra.
I am Spanish (imagine the "woke" in my country) I have a company in a freezone in Dubai, I spent time there but I don't like it... and I have another company with a passport in Montenegro, which is beautiful, but it's a "summer" place, there I met a lot of Russian people, from Serbia, etc ...and I liked their culture and now I am living in Warsaw, as a remote employee of my company in Montenegro, from everything I earn in my company in Montenegro I pay myself 5% as a salary to Poland, I pay a few taxes there, everyone is happy, I have a large capital in Montenegro and Dubai, two small apartments in each country/emirate and I don't have to deal with feminism, lgtb etc etc (oh and the beautiful women) I have not been happier in my life like now
I am Spanish too. Lived in Warsaw for the last 7 years. Came back to Spain for holidays and I couldn´t believe what the politicians, the media and the wokeness transformed my country into. I almost wish for my holidays to end so I can escape all of this as soon as possible. Spot on, Marko
Congrats on your Anam sing life. Do you live in Poland because of your montonegro passport? How is the whole thing working being employee of your own company in Poland? Can you explain I think it will be really helpful for a lot of people.

It'll be some time 'til a crazed patriotic American starts grabbing their guns and starts a revolution. It seems unlikely in this day and age, but remembering the shenanigans that happened during the BLM, anything's possible. Though the caveat to this is that the normies who constantly believe the television and legacy media are going to suck up fake news like it's spaghetti.

I moved to Ecuador last year and it's been a very good fit for me. I'm on track for permanent residence, possibly leading to citizenship. IMHO, the U.S. (and the West in general) is in sharp decline economically, morally and geopolitically, and I believe that WOKENESS is contributing to the cultural decline. The U.S. is no longer a true democracy! My Ecuadorian friends tease me about how Biden is trying to jail his political opponent. They tell me that they've heard stories about this sinister political tactic from their grandparents. "Your country is going backwards", they say. "If you cant beat 'em JAIL 'em"!😅 For me Ecuador is a "Goldilocks" in terms of weather, culture, common sense and sanity. I'm saddened by the divisiveness in the U.S. but I'm delighted to be able to live in a place that has "like minded" citizens and respects my values. No, everything isn't perfect here - it just seems that way to me compared to the insane asylum I escaped! Thanks Andrew!❤
The U.S. is no longer a true democracy!?? the Problem is PRECISELY the Democracy....that system invented in ancient Greek was the responsible of the desstruction of Greek and also when Rome became more democratic it also decayed
The thing that has made me more and more uncomfortable is government, workplace, school and media intrusion into people's lives. I saw this occuring years ago in the NHS where it felt like they were trying to dictate the personal/moral values of staff. We had mandatory training which was more akin to 'sensitivity training', than actual work-based training. And it irked me at the time because I felt like being preached to. And it was one of the reasons I moved away from the NHS. I didn't understand at the time what was going on (about 12 years ago), but as the years have passed I've now seen that the workplace, schools and colleges, media organizations and politics is where they are trying to re-shape people's values, sometimes on the back of sweeping assumptions about the general public, and are quick to punish people who don't toe the line. For years I said I could see myself retiring in a small 'traditionally' minded community in the UK, perhaps in some small town, well away from large city's. but I've been having serious doubts the past few years because these organizations are getting too intrusive for my liking.
Recently the 1975 band came to malaysia and totally disrespected our culture and country. Thank you for the kind words about my country, I hope i can attend your event in malaysia this year.
Wow!! Another really good video!! I love men who act like a man should being courteous, respectful, helpful - loyal as in monogamous .. who has faith and hope and who doesn’t act foolish but has a great sense of humor - that package is rare and yet as a woman we settle. When I was young I had a pen pal in Kuala Lumpur. .. I do wonder what happened to him all these years later. ❤️
Spain has also became extremely woke, arguably more than the United States, we are literally world leaders at this poisonous ideology. Everything is going downhill very quickly, glad that I have relocated already
@@JanH80-pm5bw culturally yes, but they aren't nearly as woke as in Spain, and they offer very good tax conditions for foreigners under the NHR program

Every so often, Andrew mentions something in sync with my current experiences. I'm 60, from the US, and just last night, an Israeli friend of mine, also 60, and I were talking about the advantages of living in Batumi Georgia. Freedom of Speech entered the conversation and we both yelled out, "Fruitcake!!!" and we weren't cancelled. 😂
@@dirtydan1861 We're safe here in Batumi. I escaped to Georgia for a reason. I don't have to look over my shoulder or think that some fruitcake cook is going to spit in my burger because of some woke BS. One of my best decisions. :)
I think this is my favourite video you’ve ever made Andrew. The bottom line is if you can, go to where you can live the life you want! I’m goal, personally, is Portugal. It’s right for me. It may not be for many… but it works for me (I’m Canadian). If you have the means, live the life you were meant to live, where ever that is! If living in an environment where you are always angry makes you happy… 🧐 then by all means stay where you are! My Stepmother’s sister lived and worked in Malaysia for years and has a deep love for it!
Portugal legalised drugs, Surely that is a "Woke" ideology, Would be nice though if all these anti woke freaks, who are afraid of this weaponized word (Which all you seem to have different meanings of what it actually means) would all f*ck off and live on your own island but then what would the new boogie man be if you all did that?
@@BeautifulTripsandPlaces in a way, Portugal picked me. I went for 3 months, quite last minute, after I had spent several month as caregiver to my aging Mum. She had vascular dementia and Alzheimer’s. Once she was safely in a long term care facility I then had the awful task of going through a lifetime of her things (as if she had died… but she hadn’t, she was alive… just no longer living as a whole person) and it broke me. After I sold her house and dealt with her personal affairs and by this time she was somewhere safe and my sister could visit her… and I was burnt out, I took a friend up on her offer to rent me her house in Portugal (Silver Coast) for 3 months. It is where I became to heal from extreme burnout and stress. I learned a WHOLE LOT while I was there… made a lot friends… fell in love with the place, people and the culture. I felt at home in a way that I had never felt before. I experienced plenty of challenges but I believe change and challenges are good for the soul. *this was my short answer!!
@@JenShea oh wow, Im so sorry for you, that must be so sad and tough experiencing your mom going through those diseases. I can imagine you were burned out. Its great that Portugal could provide you with some healing. I cant really convey it in words but i feel for you! I've lived in Portugal but always have been doubting if i could live there long term. But its definitely a country with a lot of opportunity for relaxing and feeling peace. Especially out of the cities. Im on the fence between Portugal and south America. I hope your new home will do you good!
People have been saying that here probably since colonial times. EVERY generation, once they reach a certain age, begins lamenting the lost 'safety, freedom, common sense', etc that prevailed when they were younger and has now vanished. The constant pining for 'the good old days', that were never really as good as most people's hindsight would have them believe, is as old as the hills, and it's tiring. Yes, there are things that were better in the past for most individuals, in large part because we were younger, healthier, and more optimistic about the possibilities that awaited us. But there are also good things happening today that weren't happening in the past. In fact, there is even greater safety (from violent crime) in most American cities since the violent crime and murder peak in 1993. Freedom is greater for many segments of the population, relative to our past when minorities and women couldn't vote, get loans, etc. Common sense is also not entirely lost, even if it seems that way much of the time.

Native English speaker here who grew up in Switzerland: Definitely met plenty of the 'chattering classes' in Switzerland who would and indeed are embracing "woke". In some ways, because Swiss society has always been quite conservative (try, for example, buying anything on a Sunday), people have sort of short-circuited the process. Note that the pronoun wars aren't really a thing - gendered pronouns of course are reality of life in other European languages, and I'm sure plenty of people are currently funding a PhD for themselves studying this delta. They do of course have gendered job-titles, which is not a 'thing' in English, but is very much a bear trap for the unwary.
I thought that not working on Sundays or in the night might be a progressive thing either. Some people explained to me that there are few 24/7 supermarkets and services in Europe because it's very expensive to pay even the minimal wage mandated by socialist law to people who work at weekend or in the night and do not sell much.
Thank you for sharing your precious information !! As a Swiss citizen, I question though the statement made regarding my country. Switzerland ranks among the highly progressive countries in Europe, we just don't advertise it. Being in a pre-smart-city stage, our society has all the symptoms - overall digital capture, climate-fascism, woke-marxism, legalized euthanasia, 'soft' Christian persecution etc.
There are ways to escape woke culture: Reduce the time you spend on the internet searching and scrolling through the news/articles/people that promote woke stuff. In general spend less time on the internet. Walk in a park, climb a mountain, go to gym, go to the beach, go to your favorite music festival, play a video game, build a chair or something. Live your fucking life. Focus on the positive stuff. This is the best time to be alive. Endless opportunities. Stop watching content that enrages you. I wish you peace. And I wish you love.
I moved from California to Thailand four years ago and I did notice a shift in my motivations’ranking during that period. I must confess that my initial one was entertainment (yes, I do have the yellow fever) until the cost of living revealed itself as my main incentive. I am now realizing that escaping the wokeness of the western world is nuclear to my well-being.
Imagine ladyboys in the USA. Now why don't the Thais care about that? Because they are already woke and don't care about what people do, wear or how they present themselves. If everybody in the USA was as woke as Thailand, nobody would talk about these issues at all here. It's the right wing and their religious views that make it very hard for these people to be themselves. It's getting disgusting here because the American Taliban is trying to take over via anti-woke
Watching this video and reading comments, I'm pleasantly surprised. I often get the impression that Americans and Brits are all woke. Glad there's a strong counter-narrative and a push towards traditional values. There's hope yet!
Thank you 🙏- I’m having a hard time getting this point across to people (who consume a lot of media instead of experiences) as one of the main reasons why I’m preparing to leave the US…(just got some land in Croatia) Also, during my recent travels I met a bunch of “strong people” who’ve left the western countries… This is definitely a thing on a rise, regardless of the income level
I lived in the USA for over 20 years. I never thought that one day I would say this but now I want to go back to Hungary where traditional family values still matter. I am so sad watching America, that I love and where my children grew up becoming such a woke liberal country.
I began my escape from U.S. 25 years ago to Thainand, neighbor to Malaysia. Split time 50-50 home and abroad, now full time since pre Covid. My SS provides a good life, sea view residence $280 /w pool. All utilities, Inc free WiFi, and cell phone, $40 a month. Restaurant meals $3-$6. Locals welcoming and friendly. Public transportation very affordable 24 hours a day. Females like being feminine.
If it were me and if he is smart, he should not say the country! Everyone blabs too much and then that place gets ruined too!!! Remember it's true, loose lips sink ships!!!@@theroyalrecollections3832
So much of what this guy says is right up my alley. Only thing hindering me is that I don't command eight figures... but I'm so over the bullshit of the current culture wars. I tell my friends and family all the time that I'm here... but my mind and soul are somewhere else, wandering the world. I dream of the day I can break the chains and escape the cage. Channels like these are like guideposts along the journey. There is hope... but the road is long.
@Zelielz1 What we call "education" is not education, rather indoctrination. We do not teach young people critical thinking skills, rather we teach obedience to "the message".
Ive been following/watching Andrew's Nomad Capitalist videos 2 years now and I must say this one really hit home at the urgency of taking action whether you take advantage of his services or not. I am shocked at how my own country(Canada) is turning into an authoritarian state run by a simple minded narcissist and a sizeable percentage of my fellow citizens actually support him. Bottom line is I need to leave here and will use Nomad Capitalist's services if possible. I would love to attend this upcoming conference in Malaysia to plan my exit from wokeness, insanity and poverty that Canada is quickly heading. God Bless you Andrew and company for your service to freedom loving people.
@@kangarooninja2594 Not necessarily. There are a lot of people with both money and sense, but who attained that money through means that, to put it delicately, are dubious and tend to attract the attention of law enforcement authorities. I think that a lot of the coded language that the Nomad Capitalist uses like 'things not going in a good direction' in your country, or to needing to move 'in case something happens', are actually referring to an individual's circumstances and not to some sort of broader cultural or socio-economic situation. People who need to move themselves, their businesses, and/or their assets to another country quickly, are often people who are doing things that will land them in hot water in the country where they currently reside.
@@johnclifford544 I don't know, man. I've known a lot of paranoid people in my life, and they always see coded language and ulterior motives in everything. So yeah, I don't think that's what's going on here. I think this is just another case of a conman separating fools from their money. But hey, if you're a criminal doing business in the jungle, then it's probably better to mistake a shadow for a tiger than a tiger for a shadow. Lol, stay paranoid, my friend.
I love what you do. This is exactly what I have been looking for and thank you for providing a safer way to do it. I subscribed to contact you when I make my first million. 🙏❤
Thank you for this honest words about moving. For those right wingers who want to stay and die: "At dawn, the two angels told Lot he must leave quickly. They said to him, ‘Hurry! Take your wife and take your two daughters who are here. If you do not go quickly, you will all die when the Lord destroys the city.’"
I’m a black man and a Boomer, and I hear very similar sentiments from “politically engaged” people on the left. I get some fascinating looks from them when I say stuff like, “I didn’t make this mess, and I don’t feel any obligation to fix it. But if you want to keep re-fighting civil rights battles, grow old, then watch your children take on the same zombie horde you did, Be. My. Guest.”
It's 95% of why I follow this channel. If I see blue/pink hair, excessive tattoos or the usual bumper stickers, I want NOTHING to do with these people and wouldn't let them merge in traffic or pull them out of a burning car. Something has to give, and it will eventually.
Everyone should consider El Paraiso Verde in Paraguay, a big colony of 250 people and families with kids who are escaping the matrix together. The way out of this shit is making great colonies of freedom
@@hydroponichomesteader6852 for what? To be easier to sanction, imprison or kill? Mind you, we live in countries where people want to destroy anyone with a different mindset
@@hydroponichomesteader6852 they will go after us, that’s a guarantee. We will always be a minority, people are in deep sleep. Actually moving out is a lot cheaper and therefore a much cheaper and more viable solution. Look at the rent/buying prices in Madagascar or Cambodia for example :) we have enough money for a small house in Denmark, many might have, if all of us who have that amount go together and make an El Paraiso Verde, we will be safe for a couple of generations. And we will for sure get rich and rich enough to just have some land to give, rent or sell cheap to make a nice colony where people are mainly, but not necessarily fully, self sufficient.
Andrew, Upper East Tennessee is a nice place to live. Tennessee and Florida are the two states in the eastern US that have no income taxes, but Tennessee has a nice change of seasons every year. Tennessee is mostly a Red state, but Upper East Tennessee is definitely Red. If you have clients who feel safer carrying a firearm in their pocket, we are a Constitutional Carry state...no permit required. And you can still get a very nice home here for way under a half million. For your English-speaking clients who'd like to live in the US, it's a nice place to consider.
Utah is nice too. I went last weekend for UFC. It felt like "hope" was in the air there. Extremely clean and well built infrastructure for a medium sized capital city.
Live outside the cities for a far different life. I live in a rural county in a mostly rural southern state and we have no woke culture here. No BLM, gangs or Antifa. Very few homeless, no graffiti no traffic, no stress. No trans craziness or CRT in the schools. Yah there’s a few freaks but normal people are the norm here and in many many places, even in deep blue states
Moved my business and family from Canada to a red state and I am open to other countries in future. You are right it is a losing battle trying to change the culture.
My question is how does one move and provide for themselves if they are not laptop class. My husband and I own our home outright and would be able to cashout and leave with a chunk of chain, but how do we support our family in theing run? We are Canadian. I am on Involuntary LOA from my job in healthcare for refusing the jab, my husband works as the village maintenance man in a small local municipality. How do we transfer our limited skills and experience into a way to support our family in a new country? Any ideas or insight is appreciated ❤✌
@@bcowtan6866 The USA has a lot of opportunities. If you want to live free, you can start any type of business just as I did. Consult with a business broker. There are many down there. I am in a business that will never run out of customers.
Few year back I wanted to move to the US, but after years of working on my goal now I see things are much worse in the US then it was years back and I am even noticing weird things happeing in more and more countries, that were good for long term living. So for now I stay where I am.
You mention a lot of positives regarding Eastern Europe, and I am to thank you for actually acknowledging these things (as the West usually dumps on us). However, it is important to consider all aspects of that life. People on that side of the globe have been shaped by the hardships and history in that region. Thus, if you are physically or mentally weak, and you seek a comfortable living for the long term as you leave the West - Eastern Europe is probably not for you. Unless you are rich, of course, then many issues simply don't affect you. But hey, that's my take on it growing up in the ruins of the USSR, so take it with a grain of salt.
I live in Canada but we decided simply to leave society and form our own parallel micro-society, which actually is working quite well for us. However, I love your stance on issues and I like watching your videos.
I wish I could upvote this more. I am an engineer and watching all these wokesters with their fingerpainting majors. Forget socialism, give me traditional values. I am not going to work more to pay more.
I hope I'm able to make it out of the USA in time for the next tyrannical leader who locks the whole country down with the next lab-made disease. Heading to Eastern Europe and working on Polish citizenship by descent. Thank you for your good advice, Andrew.
The wokeness of the US made me decide to leave here when I retire (can't leave before then because of what I do for a livong). As I considered destinations, I came to realize that the entire West is infected to one degree or a other with wokeness, and I want absolutely nothing to do with it. For that reason, Asia (not sure which country yet) has raced to the top of the list. An added benefit of Asia is the affordability will allow me to retire sooner than I thought! 😊
We literally FLED two years ago... from weak, woke Canada... it is home, we love 🇨🇦 but right now, it is out of the question, completely gone, sadly. May our true north strong and free come back!!! 😢❤🇨🇦
Have you found a destination? My question is how does one move and provide for themselves if they are not laptop class. My husband and I own our home outright and would be able to cashout and leave with a chunk of chain, but how do we support our family in theing run? We are Canadian.

Great video and super timely Andrew! I left the wokeness of America 3 years ago splitting my time between Switzerland and Türkiye. I found Switzerland to be both liberal and conservative, it's probably the best example of a truly laissez-faire country. And Türkiye although a secular country is probably the truest example of a country that follows the preaching of Islam...wonder people!
Remembering that countries can change, as an example look at Venezuela that over a twenty year period went from by far the richest country in South America to the poorest. In my opinion many of the “English language countries” seem to be taking a similar path, will they also become poorest?
@@mtwata Look back 30 years, in the years before President Chavez. If you have any Spanish textbooks written in those years the description of that country was quite different, and I personally was an investor in Venezuela so was paying attention to the country. And last I’ve been in contact with some of the people who escaped. And one last indication is Chavez’s daughter is one of the richest people on the planet still today. However the general population is now suffering. Becoming a poor nation doesn’t mean a few thieves won’t become rich, does it?
I have been watching your videos and enjoy them very much. I obtained a second citizenship through ancestry, and now have two citizenships (Canada and EU). This video is by far the most profound for me. You have reinforced many things I have been thinking. Especially the idea that in a country, people with ideas that are different than mine own the country too, and if too many people agree with them the culture will change and I can do nothing to stop it. Thank you so much.
If you think wokeness isn't a thing in Switzerland, you don't know a lot about Switzerland. Ordinary people here aren't woke, but the media, teachers, and academia are. So we're basically where America was a couple of years ago.
Moving from a red state to a redder state that I think is about 20 years behind the “progress” I’ve seen in my home state. Are enough of us gathering there to preserve the way of life we prefer for my children? Only time will tell. Another 20 years will be retirement for us. We are not afraid to move to where we can be content.
Keep in mind that blue states pay for the red states. So by moving to an even redder state, you are deciding to be an even greater burden on the majority of American taxpayers.
@@stillwatersfarm8499 I was thinking it could be Arkansas or some other nearby southern state. I live in Arkansas too, and we are probably similar age. Hope you're enjoying life here in the natural state.
@@BonBonShrimp It’s beautiful, the people are nice, and I’m enjoying the slower pace. I feel like I’m taking a deep breath for the first time in years :)
As someone originally from Latvia, currently living in Arizona, I am looking for a way out. I am not looking to move back to the place I'm from, but the US is on a massive downward spiral right now. I am looking to put down the roots as far as buying a property goes, and I don't see a point. Dating is also bs as I can't match with anyone culturally compatible. Latvia is a completely incompatible as well. So I'm just going around life nurturing a wide array of personal relationships with open, as you call them "worldly", people. Looking to go to Dubai later this year as a lot of my new connections are congegrating there, at least part time anyway.
@@xdlol59why? because I don't like the culture and the people there. Bad weather; corruption. Anyways, yuck. Maybe to own a "vacation house" to utilize every year or every two years. ha! but there is ends.
We’re American expats in Zürich, Switzerland and for a Western country it’s not that woke - except it’s growing in my kid’s international school, unfortunately. But it’s still mostly a Christian country and majority conservative government with traditional values. Yesterday was the Knabenschiessen in Zürich which is the shooting contest for kids 13-18. Kids can drink beer and wine at 16. And there’s a traditional apprenticeship route to take for kids after 9th grade or highschool. So there’s choice. My kids are applying for citizenship now and I’m eligible next year. 🙏🏻 But my son is probably going to go to college in Prague. I think Switzerland is the best Western European country to move to if you don’t want Eastern Europe. Portugal is good too!
you just put everything that's been gnawing at me for a long time into words. I'm just weeks from retirement and a long needed break... I'm so tired of the battle - I'm not the one who loves the fight, I'm saddend and sickened by the mere need for it. so tired of "adults" whining about micro-aggressions when every whim isn't validated. This time next year, I hope to not own a d*mn thing, and have that visa in-hand to go where I'm treated best. It makes so much sense when I say it that way.
Let me add a different perspective of someone who visited recently for tourism in States with family. Our earlier plan was to stay for 2 months and tickets were booked accordingly. While we arrived at the Dulles, I can still recall the reaction of my kids 10 and 7 who have been fascinated by Mr. Beast videos. Dirty n unhygienic restrooms at the airport and it was all garbage here n there at the airport. The poor dressing sense of people was scary to the kids. Same was the case at the 4 or 5 star hotels we stayed. The irony is Americans have forgotten to take care of basic hygiene. Common breakfast was also a nightmare. Anyways I had to drive my kids from Washington to Niagra side and on the way it was delightful to see that people in villages n small town truly feel PROUD on themselves and they had US flags hanging out of their door while the cleanliness was well maintained. While in Buffalo n Niagara side area, you don't feel safe as people don't have the audacity not to stare constantly. Anyways then we head to NYC, as kids need to see this famous square known as Times Square. I wish I had a helicopter to just drop my kids directly there rather than going through different avenues n streets that head towards it. Unfortunately it was such a disgusting smelly n awkward passage to Townsqaure and no matter which direction you come in. To be honest, it felt like we may vomit any moment. From metro to roads, it was a nightmare. I took them to several other cities as we travelled from very far. Finally, we gave up and winded up our trip to 22 days while I paid for changing our tickets. There was one instance in US that I must mention. There was one American lady who was pure American at Target with age around 55-60 who caught my kids' attention. She wasn't just lost in mobile n elsewhere. Present in the moment and greeted and treated our kids like her grandkids. ❤️ for her, and I wish I could show more genuine American people from the past to my kids. It was also a surprise that couple of gentlemen at the famous Wall Street JP morgan side, approached us and insisted that you as family should be all in same frame in pictures. While they did that, they complemented what a nice and marvellous family you are. I don't know but me and my wife felt as if its coming from someone who really feel the need of it. Prayers and ❤ for them and also prayers for America to see it again as it was before.
2016 election.... you were giving an interview to some female reporter and said that you didn't vote, but if you had, you would have voted for Hillary. Never forgot that.
I love following Nomad Capitalist but I’ve tried twice to explore using their assistance. I was told I was not ready once and the second time they said they’d look at my possibilities for a second citizenship and I have not gotten further response. That was over a month ago.
This was informative, thanks. I live in Ukraine and unfortunately it is difficult to resist modern trends even in eastern Europe. Yes, we don't have the same issues as in english speaking countries, wokeness isn't a big deal here at all. However young people such as myself are in a continuous flow of "western progressive trends" through social media. In some ways globalisation would be a good thing - open borders, joint efforts in solving problems...in other ways - I am not fond of the idea being united by the same ideology, in particular like wokeness or socialism, which we already experienced, and it wasn't a good experience, so to say)
@@workpulkit Honestly, trying to figure that out right now by living in certain countries for like 3-6 months and then making a decision on where I want to live permanently. Wish I was more helpful brother.
@@workpulkit I'm in Canada, moved to a rural area from the GTA 2 years ago, and for the most part aside from some of the folks who are unable to take responsibility for their own thoughts and require it dictated to them, it's pretty empty of woke culture. I suspect rural areas in general are still fine, especially for raising a family (which I'm not currently doing). There are still a few low cost rural areas in Canada, even Ontario. Just gotta find them. With good people too, and not a 5 hour drive away from amenities.
Did anyone see that study where they surveyed u.s. college students and their age group peers overseas, their fears were sooooo different. While overseas students were last afraid because of a risk of attack, the u.s. students listed "being alone with an uber driver" as a cause of fear. I was so ashamed of what this culture had become. Weak people will continue to make times for generations to come.
I lived in the Philippines for a bit over a year. Now we're in Japan. I noticed that every other ad in the Philippines was a Trans person or someone in drag. I don't mind there being an LGBTQ culture, but its in your face 24/7. For a country that lacks basic infrastructure compared even to it's peers, Philippines lacks focus and woke culture has taken over. Kids in these somewhat English speaking countries sit on Twitter and Reddit all day, reading about how great the west is and lack zero context. Singapore is the same. Youth are pushing hard for LGBTQ rights, meanwhile their birthrate is abysmal and they're sandwiched between two Muslim majority countries. It seems that a language barrier sometimes is a useful tool. Nothing wrong with Conservative or Liberal values, but blindly following them when they don't fit is a recipe for disaster, ala the Iranian Revolution. Of course, nobody teaches this in school. Then of course, there's the disdain for the rich, even if they're self made. Andrew is right, diversify your options.
Trans people in Philippines are not trans because they feel like it but because it enables men to get female jobs. We all know prostitution is a high paid most popular industry there. It was there before LGBTQ was in America and has nothing to do with this movement.
As an American, I have lived and worked in the Philippines for 20+ years and married and have children. The Philippines is not even anywhere close to woke culture. The Philippines is extremely conservative, abortion of any length is illegal, has been run by dictators in the past and generally has a very heavy right leaning population. Filipinos though, do not give a sh$t what someone is as long as they are happy. Come on, you spent 1 year there, you should know better. Although your post proves that most Americans dont even understand WTF woke is. Hell, I watched people get their heads blow off on the street under Duterte for the perceived notion they were doing drugs. Philippines, woke? hahahaha.
@@vioreliachim5646Sorry, im no OP but Japan is also heading the same. The court rules trans women can use women single sex space without any gender reassignment surgery. The same Japan with high molestation and underskirt filming rate. Japan also defunded rape shelter due to the founder refusing to drop "trans" when talking about trans women.
This is a great video. You are absolutely correct about the maturity difference. There are also some amazing advantages to more direct gender roles ( no, I don’t mean oppression). My husband and I are looking for an off grid bit of peace.
