This is literally my parents. They told me to stop criticizing the people in power, even going as far as saying I shouldn’t criticize the government of my former country. I don’t even have citizenship in my former country anymore, not sure how I could even get in trouble for criticizing is effecively a foreign country to me. (I’m talking about PRC btw).

My mom told me to “just focus on improving your own life and stop worrying about things like you can’t control like politics” (as in, both the politics of my former country and the politics of my current country)

Am I in the wrong here? Should I just keep quiet and not say anything so that I don’t “get in trouble”?

    LOL, you and me both. I’m too old to make any radical changes, but I’ve encouraged my kid to finish a University degree that will get him a job outside of the country. I think if I married for emmigration purposes, I’d end up in Hungry or something. Out of the pan and into the fire.
