With all the news of ICE arresting and abusing tourists in my countries news recently I would also think twice before traveling to the US if I don't have to. Not like there aren't other just as interesting/beautiful, cheaper and by now tbh safer countries to travel to.

Besides all the moral questions wrt the slowish slide into fascism ofc.

UK and Germany made warnings not to go to the US. The US is like North Korea now, lol.

I'm in the UK, my friends are well read but hadn't heard of the detention of tourists. One of them still plans to go on holiday next month... mad

I can tweet at my president to show me his balls.

Can’t do that in North Korea.

Not for very much longer, he's working on limiting speech that he feels is critical of him. You watch

If it went viral and people started retweeting it, putting on posters, and getting it in the news, you might get deported.

As a citizen of the US, I'm nervous about leaving and getting back in.

If it reaches that point, just be glad you made it out in time.

Boycott US

Overview:

The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.

Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.

America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.

America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.
