I have a US and UK passport. I would probably end up in Singapore or a Nordic country? I always figured I would evaluate my options if that time ever came.

Don't bother with the Nordic countries if trying to avoid surveilance. Surveillance shitholes and it's only getting worse.
Denmark has been illegally requiring all telcos to monitor everything for years, and nothing has changed. No one is willing to change anything or impose any consequence for it. It's even gotten people falsely imprisoned due to complete reliance on location data from mobile phones.
Sweden is not much better, and just passed legislation allowing law enforcement to hack people's phones.
I'm almost certain that Norway, Finland and Iceland are no better.

Singapore is a democracy in name only and is its own budding surveillance nightmare.

Your best bet are countries where people still remember what it's like living under an oppressive regime.
