Not that I'm aware of? I know there is a single politician who is notoriously far right but I've not heard anything about the entire government being fascist.

My brother lives there. He loves it. High taxes but they're used well for the benefit of the people

Make approximately $1.2m USD investment in any combination of property, businesses investment, etc. You still keep the equity. But it's basically "add money to the Dutch economy in this amount"

I'm leaving.

IMPORTANT PSA: most people won't be as fortunate as I am. Look into "digital nomad visa" options. These typically last six months to a year, and many countries have them now including France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Japan, and more. Requirements will be slightly different for each but it can be an option to escape while you figure out next steps!

That being said...

I'm very fortunate to have family wealth, a high paying, niche tech job, and contacts in various places around the world

Current front-runners are The Netherlands where I could "buy-in" or Japan, where my employer may be able to sponsor me

FiveThirtyEight, specifically:

I would like you to direct me to any images or posts on fedi or similar that instruct people to call the numbers provided INSTEAD of calling government authorities

Because while your post explicitly calls out the instructions in these image as being wrong, giving the specific impression that people should call the numbers you provided and NOT political orgs (because you speak very critically of the political orgs, insinuating they should not be called), every post I've seen with political org numbers has simply provided the information without additional comment

Your initial post reeks of manipulation in an effort to drive people away from the political orgs.

Those orgs serve a very specific purpose that is NOT covered by the state and federal offices you've told people to call. Those government offices are not a replacement for the services provided by the political orgs and you should not be presenting them as if they are

Recounts do not include submitting new votes.

And either way, good luck getting a partisan controlled office to institute a recount or re-vote in the current political climate.

You are gambling on the hope that the problem gets fixed later. This is a terrible idea.

And local election offices - often under partisan control - have no obligation to assist individuals in getting their ballot cast.

You are either being extremely naive to the realities on the ground, or intentionally disingenuous.

The gift isn't the crime.

Telling people you're holding a sweepstakes, collecting their information based on that statement, and then not holding the sweepstakes and instead giving the supposed prize to someone of your choice is the crime

It's called fraud

You assume their goal is to get him off entirely and not to simply shift the crime to a lesser offense

None of the resources detailed in this post provide any form of immediate assistance to resolve an ongoing threat to your ability to cast your vote.

They will not help you find a lawyer. They will not help pay for that lawyer. They will not contact law enforcement and apply pressure to have them respond in a timely manner.

These should NOT be your first call. They should be who you report to after the fact to pursue long term remediation.

If you are a Democrat, call a left-leaning political org with sufficient funding and an army of lawyers.

If you are a Republican, call a right-leaning political org with sufficient funding and an army of lawyers.

THEN call the folks in the OP

If your ballot is never cast, it can't be fixed later. The best the folks in the OP can do is punish the people who committed the crime. They can't get your vote counted. The political orgs are specifically set up to help in real-time to make sure you and everyone else at your polling place gets to vote NOW!

Except it is a violation of the law, just a different law. They defrauded the public by collecting something of material value (registrant information) under false pretenses. It's textbook fraud

Which is why allowing the right to use the label "pro-life" was a cardinal sin of the Democrats' strategy

I'm literally pro-life: I support saving lives whenever and wherever it's reasonable to do so

But I'm pro-choice, because I don't think I should be the one to decide for everyone else which situation is reasonable and which isn't. Also, women deserve basic fucking rights and bodily autonomy is, like, the number one most fundamental right

We really ought to change the nature of the conversation: it's not "pro-life". It's pro-enslavement, pro-religious-tyranny, and pro-absolutism

Sense & Sensibility 🤓

Get it? Because it's a period piece?

I'll see myself out
