I watch this guy's videos sometimes and it seems like he's living a dope life while being respectful, no idea if he's paying taxes and stuff tho lol

Shawty was also tryna paint Bali and Indonesia as some sort of paradise for the LBGTQ community which is apparently also incorrect.

NVM, they hate niggas over there, and also refuse to know English because of a dumb island

Were they hot?

gotta stimulate they economy

Yeah I think it might be more forgivable for an immigrant in the u.s to overstay their visa and not pay taxes just off how rigorous the procedure is when compared to u.s immigrants in 3rd world countries

not gonna argue the first point for a few reasons, but Argentina actually has the highest English proficiency in all of Latin America

Exactly. Show's you the mindset/stereotypes we apply to societies. People from 3rd world countries want to be legal, tax paying citizens and enjoy a decent standard of life but so many barriers prevent them from achieving this yet people (not everyone) from first world countries move to 3rd world countries and want a free ride.

When you moved, did you recognize a visible wealth disparity between you and the locals ?

And what made you wanna move if you dont mind answering

I spent 6 months traveling through South America and met my girlfriend in Argentina. we hit it off and she convinced me to move here to her hometown (was already entertaining the idea). 4 years later we're planning on leaving the country in the next few years

my first two years here were difficult as I relied on the local economy. I was working my ass off at English institutes and barely made it to the end of the month. then I started freelancing online and getting paid in dollars which allowed me to live very comfortably, tho I'm frugal and never flaunt my money

moving here definitely gave me a new perspective on poverty. it's a constant worry here for most people yet they find a way to survive and still enjoy life. biggest difference in wealth disparity I recognize here is the inability to save and how most young adults are forced to live at home

Sounds like just another form of colonialism to me

That’s exactly what they’re not doing

can you link the thread?

I think it’s acceptable if person is going back to their mother country since you have some connection to the land

But people moving from first world country to third country and not getting offered good job is some weirdo s***

Shawty deleted the thread and then went private on twitter but here’s the screenshots. There are more in the replies too

Like if I got offered a job in Nigeria to be a urban planner and get paid well I probs consider it

I just don’t see the point tbh unless you’re going to build business or something why would you purposely move somewhere that’s probably more difficult to start a family

At the end of the day if they’re gonna spend money and pay taxes they’re feeding into the economy mane some Of y’all just born to hate tbh

Like Lagos

But why tho

I don’t see the argument tbh

Not really

Living in a first world country is colonialism

americans are morally wrong for being american

Yeah biggest city world by 2100 surely they paying world class urban planners to help plan the city out for the future
