How can I actually get out of the US? (sh.itjust.works)

For obvious reasons, I desperately want to get out of the United States. Unfortunately, every country I look at doesn't seem interested in gaining a retail worker with no savings.

Am I just fucked? Is anywhere accepting us as refugees? Is there anywhere that's both relatively friendly to trans people AND relatively easy for an American to immigrate to?

Were any of your grandparents born in a different country?

If so, look into applying for citizenship in that country and then a passport from that country. Not all countries base qualifications on grandparents but some do.

Just to add, I have family from bit Italy and Ireland. Italian law currently doesn't allow me citizenship as the line passes through my grandmother. I have a path to Irish citizenship but had have difficulty finding necessary records even though I have family in Ireland.

edit - I don't really care what country i can get into as long as it in the EU.
