Where to?

Because unless you become a citizen of the country you are fleeing to (a process that, *IF* it is open to you, will take years), you will have even less rights to vote and protest than you do now.

That may be true. But there won't be the pretense that I'm living in the most free, democratic place on earth when I'm obviously not.

Anyway, voting and protesting seem to have zero impact, so it's hard to figure out what value to assign...

IIRC Some parts of argentina allow residents to vote. And you can file a citizenship case on day one of arrival and have it stalled for years until you actually meet the criteria (which due to their constitution which won't change easily, is basically "survive 2 years"). In the meanwhile you can't be deported with an open citizenship case.

You can get citizenship in like 90 days in Vanuatu or something. Nominally it's less democratic / more oppressive than the USA but in reality they barely know what's happening on many of the islands...
