If we did this to the Republican party I wonder how many rape cases would be solved.
None when they run things.
Solved, not prosecuted.
It's the fascist populist playbook in action again
Every other country should apply the same list on US citizens.
Or just ban US citizens. Fuck them.
The people trying to escape are not the ones you should be angry at. Those are often the first people sent to the camps.
The people trying to escape should be the people trying to fight. If there are camps, you done fucked up large. Time to fix yo shit or die trying.
Over 75% of Americans have never had a passport.
Don't be like your enemy, be better;
USA citizens did nothing wrong (beside voting trump but it's not all of them ofc)
Edit: i don't understand why y'all want to punish every citizen of USA, even those that did not voted trump or those that are actively agains him and do protests
It's like saying Russian people did nothing wrong besides voting for Putin, but it's not all of them ofc.
I would agree if it weren't painfully obvious the Russian elections that brought put in in weren't heavily influenced by putin-run domestic terrorism and election fraud.
Wait, actually, it still is a good comparison.
Carry on.
In both cases, the war machine will become weaker if it's easier for the smart ones to leave.
I am saying that not all USA citizens voted trump so they shouldn't be punished for that, it's like if i suddently decide to ban all german people from my country because of hitler, it just make no sense at all
So maybe other countries should require US citizens to submit their last five years of social media history so they can block any maga idiots. ;-)
Expect that's exactly what should happen. If the people don't rise up to fix the shit thats happening then they are complicit.
The germans fought back just as much as the stupid ones helped during hitlers reign.
Till the American people actually start fucking doing something. Then guess fucking what.
Punish everyone.
Yep and the ones traveling internationally probably didn't vote for Trump but idiots love to downvote a good point.
Do protests? Oh good here I thought they were doing absolutely nothing.
That parenthetical does a lot of lifting in there…
Why would we want US citizens data to begin with? Waste of storage
For them to feel the pain.
ESTA?
Everyone Stay Thefuck Away?
A lot of that list is just info I don't have. I don't even know most of my family's current number, you expect the past?
The IP one is hilarious. I've likely had hundreds of IPs in the last 5 years, and I don't know any of them. Would you just send a range of potential options or do they expect me to know and write out hundreds of IP addresses? The total range of every carrier I've used in the last 5 years?
I've had the same IP address forever: 127.0.0.1.
Cool, mine is 192.168.0.1!
Looks familiar. Are you a spy?
Me too, ::1
Would you just send a range of potential options
0.0.0.0/0
::/0
Something in that range.
I would guess your average person couldn't tell you what an IP address is.
Ummm... I'm pretty sure it's 255.255.255.0 ? ...or maybe it's .256...
No wait, it's [ABCD::EFGH]
I wonder how will they react if I say that I don't have any social media accounts.
But I guess I'll keep wondering since my interest on going to that shithole has been plummetting for the last 20 years and right now is at below zero levels.
There is zero chance I could accurately provide this information to anyone, none of my family members could, because they don't know the phone numbers I've had... All around it sounds like a shit idea.
It's an attempt on intimidation, because supposedly for the person travelling it's a lose-lose:
All around it's a humiliation and intimidation exercise
It’s a protectionist policy. This is designed to keep people from entering as not many will want to give out the required.
It's ok, I'll just do vacation somewhere else.
Email adresses is gonna be fun with my catch all.
If you spin up a custom server you can really have fun with it
Translation: Musk said "Here, sign this and then we go to McDonald's!" and Trump was like "ALL RIGHT!"
Aren’t all EU countries on the list of visa free - waived ESTA requirements countries ? Thought that was the case? Or has that been reversed?
AFAIK that’s still the case. But that has always included the requirement to fill out a form, providing some information. I remember things like „are you a terrorist“ and such. So it has just been extended a little.
Get fucked
mfw I don't know most of the required information.
Misleading title. Post makes it sound like all data is requires. Low effort.
A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
