  • Depends on what you mean by worker’s rights and free market.

    Let’s say that that’s;

    • right to holiday, parental and medical leave
    • wages linked to inflation
    • adequate safety standards
    • strong and robust unemployment protections and social assistance
    • free healthcare
    • workplace democracy

    and:

    • free travel of goods
    • free travel of people

    in short, you’re looking for a Nordic model within the EU… you can’t really advocate worker’s rights without fully committing on the left economic model, imho. The centrist ways are acceptable for getting the rich onboard to move away from the right. But not acceptable for moving the rest away from left.












  • Then definitely Estonia, or Lithuania. Although I think it’d be much better to live in the non-Russian part and learn Estonian/Lithuanian (and use it) there. I strongly recommend you do that last part especially.

    Alternatively, you could go to Slovakia, Russia is a minority official language there, though a lot of hospitals refuse service for transition stuff.

    For queer in general, not trans, Estonia still would be the best option.

    You could also go to Canada - there aren’t many Russian speakers, but there are small communities. Not enough to warrant a “minority” by a certain tyrant, thankfully. Winnipeg has some of them, I think.
