Hear ya, over-regulation is a big issues anywhere. And the way people put themselves above animals just sucks period. There are some places where things are a little better. I hope you find a way to go to Chile, you know, you have a goal and that is worth a lot already.
I wanna leave this place but don't really know where to go. The hurdles are so high and it makes me wish stupid humans would have never invented stuff like borders and countries. One planet free to go where you want is my dream.
Unfortunately that will never happen :( Human history has proven that we can't trust or be trusted, and I doubt, what with we've done already, that will ever change.
Hear you on the hurdles, this shit is impossible...
Agree with everything you just wrote. Harsh place for people like you and me, the world we live in.
