Relocating to another country faces obstacles for everyone considering it, but this imagined obstacle of whatever one thinks of the government is probably the very least of obstacles.

Number 1 is always language. In fact you can usually just stop there. The big Expat gatherings in Mexico are there only because the local Mexicans have picked up English.

Number 2 is income.

Brits have flocked to Singapore regardless of its government. Ditto Malaysia. It happens because there is some English language in that locale. The guys going to the Philippines have it easy to pursue that low cost of living because the locals learn some English in school growing up.

Government is near zero on lists of concerns. It is why Russia was the #1 country destination of Ukrainians fleeing the war. Many went west to Europe for the benefits, but language compelled Russia as the most popular single country destination. Certainly more so than Germany.

Compare apples to apples. Putin is a dangerous madman who is a disaster to the world and you need to look at what he is doing to his own country and Ukraine as opposed to what he is doing here in the present. He is also a threat to the middle class everywhere and everyone who is in his gun sites in a way McConnell is not.
