Where are we going to go if SOPA passes and /jp/ is obliterated along with the rest of 4chan?

I won't kill myself and I'm not going to let you kill yourself either because I love you too much, so don't even think about that. Where are we going to go though? There has to be some place we can take refuge.

You know, maybe I'm overreacting, but I'm really starting to think about my future here in the US with all these changes being made. I don't like them at all. I feel like a criminal even though I'm not. I don't feel safe anymore. The more I think about moving out of this country, the more it appeals to me. At first it seemed like some unreachable dream, but now it seems like something that I could see myself actually being able to do in the future. My parents have always wanted me to go back to college. I'm still young. I can't think of anything that would not let me get a degree and move away. Being on /jp/ I'm sure you can see where I'm going with this. Maybe I should give it a shot.

Nither do I but I'm assuming that's what everyone want's wants to do, I don't want to be competing with some secondary with more motivation and drive over what little teaching jobs are out there though so I was wondering if I can just pick up any odd job and be able to live off that.

No, seriously, if you're fluent in Japanese and have skills you should be looking for real jobs.

Yes but we're talking about /jp/ here. No one has skills enough for a decent job or they would already be living in Japan.

What is good compared to 4chan, really? I hear people saying "4chan is shit, 4chan is shit, shit this and shit that". To have something bad, you must have something good to compare it to. Find me something good first. And yes, "it's the least shitty" means it's good if there isn't any better.

That is because you're new, and only know /b/, /a/ and /v/ as they are today, maybe you've even looked at modern /jp/ a bit.

But for many of us, /jp/ is still our home. The place where we discovered many new things, the place we shared our experiences about things nobody else wants to talk about. /jp/ is a community, and we will drift apart from eachother if 4chan dies. Even if those of us who still take /jp/ seriously are now in a minority drowned out by kids posting their daily garbage, I don't want to lose everybody.
