If this shit passes, the EU should apply the same rule and when we find a fucking MAGAt, stamp "Entry Denied and Fuck Off!"
Trying to isolate the country from what used to be our allies, then take away all our rights and turn this degrading shithole into North Korea where the citizens are law bound to kiss their "leaders" ass and pretend it doesn't fucking stink.
krasnov is adhering to PUTINS wishes.
Whether or not the states are being puppeted by Russia holding cards in the form of blackmail, this is exactly the kind of thing they would do to weaken the states
its is the foundation of geopolitics that russia uses.
It's amazing how much the US doesn't want you to go there, even if it's just to visit.
Despite all the mediocrity, there are some things to see there, but if that's the authorities' attitude (and this here is not the first example of it), yeah, I think I'll skip.
It’s also to keep people in.
they really don't seem to realize there's an entire world of places out there to see...
Don't come here is the message they're sending. The US is closed for business.
Do not visit the US
literally, I let my VISA expire and it was hard because I live on the frontier so I'll miss out on a lot of things but it is not worth it
last time I needed to cross the border I was detained for an extra hour (not counting the queue) just because I didn't cross during the pandemic
fuck the US, fuck fascism
I still remember a trip I took with my parents to Vancouver and Seattle. We are from Brazil.
The difference was night and day, especially the infrastructure, landscape, and the appearance of the people who worked there. Seattle felt much more somber and gray.
The only ones who seemed overtly happy were the waitresses, but since these jobs in the U.S. rely heavily on tips, it felt more like forced role-play to get extra money compared to the more down-to-earth Canadian customer service.
What’s social media?
This is, technically
What's "US tourism"?
Something that existed until the beginning of 2025.
And what's the deal with airline food?
So fucking annoying of articles to be like "this was published on Tuesday by the federal register and is open for comments" only to not provide a link.
yeah, because tourism is doing so well now, we need more reasons to fuck over the industry
you know its bad when they dont report how tourism is doing in places like florida, texas. its 1-2 punch , anti-immigration policies has probably affected them severely, and the lack of tourism dollars to those welfare states.
I am surprised the tourism industry is taking this so well. I mean Trump and company are literally doing anything they can to kill it off.
it comes with the territory. Working in U.S. tourism occaisionally means eating an inordinate amount of shit.
Sounds like taliban/fascist strategy: keep people apart and make everyone hate you so you can then claim you're embattled because everyone rejects you.
They are learning from the Saudis and UAE
Fascism.
With race-based xenophobia.
Is anyone really surprised by the further restrictions on the free speech by the fascist regime?
What surprises me is how much Americans are willing to take or how self-absorbed and blind they are as to what is happening.
First it was illegal immigrants. Then any immigrants. Now legal visitors, not even immigrants. Next it will be citizens, absolutely guaranteed.
They are already being targeted by the ICE and the government is working on plans to label citizens as domestic terrorists if they oppose the president.
But yeah, I'm sure using the ICE whistles and honking at the Nazi police as they abduct your family and friends is gonna solve the problem.
they are kept complacent, because they still have a job that pays moderate or well off where they live off of, plus the propaganda of the media keeping them mostly ignorant.
it's so tiring to watch people just not realize the natural progression to all of this, like how can you not see it's gonna be YOU next in a few years when you post on facebook about how you're disappointed about supreme leader trump's tax policy and the secret police show up at your door
Americans are incapable of thinking that far ahead. They will literally scoff at any foresight, like the future is unknowable.

My neighbors heads are firmly wedged all the way up their asses. These old fools act like everything is just fine because the boots aren't on their necks yet.
Dear lord!!! Just tell me what you don't wanna have, it's way shorter!
Oh wait ... you can't even pay me to go there! Would an employer demand me to go there, I'd quit on the spot.
So what happens when you truthfully state "I don't use social media"? Or use any that are mainstream?
Seems like a dumb time to me.
Depends on the officer you're dealing with. There's multiple stories, from before Trump ever took office, of people being detained for up to a day for saying this or refusing to grant access to their phone. I can only imagine it's worse now.
Well, that's definitelly going to solve the fall in Tourism problem in the US /s
One of my relative was stuck in us borders because he didn't have social media pages to his name so they thought he was a terrorist.
This was in 2021 I believe.
This made me scared to go even before the orange man came back.
Been there twice, it was interesting and already shocking in 2008.
You US Americans should visit Europe or live there for a while. Then you can decide to come back or stay but you'll have at least a reference point in your brain that things can be different and maybe that the US isn't the greatest country in the world in all fields.

As a Canadian, I won't be travelling to the Republic of Gilead anytime soon. That country is becoming worse by the minute.
And since Americans think I'm Latino (I'm not), I don't want to be shipped to El Salvador.
