How to kill the entire United States tourism industry in one easy step

[-] Formfiller@lemmy.world 27 points 4 months ago
[-] jaybone@lemmy.zip 5 points 4 months ago

If you have stuff like this. MAGA+swastika, or something that says Trump is a Nazi, is that considered bad though?

Because I assume people who support them have that stuff too.

[-] bear 3 points 4 months ago

Funny thing, they get to call themselves nazi as an edgy in-group point of pride, behind closed doors. You publicly calling them nazi for doing nazi shit is "hateful" rhetoric.

jokes on them, I don't use social media, other than LinkedIn, where it's sole purpose is for job/career stuff.

[-] Godric@lemmy.world 21 points 4 months ago

Not posting JD Vance memes to LinkedIn? Coward.

[-] criss_cross@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

Just say you made it with AI to show that the future is now and LinkedIn will shit themselves for you.

[-] jake_jake_jake_@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

insightful! 💡

[-] Tarquinn2049@lemmy.world 14 points 4 months ago

Wait... is this not social media? What we are doing right now?

[-] SeductiveTortoise@piefed.social 8 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

It's the antithesis to social media. We're all not socializing, but nerding over some topics nobody else is interested in. I don't know you and I won't know your user name five minutes after I've written this. And that's not meant to be an insult, I really like it that way. We're here for topics, not people.

Twitter/Facebook/Instagram/whatever is about people, and I hate it.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.zip 7 points 4 months ago

I’m guessing they consider reddit to be social media. Which means as a reddit clone, Lemmy would also be considered such.

Though I wonder if Lemmy is popular enough for them to know or care about it.

[-] Tarquinn2049@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Fair, I am probably using it wrong, hehe. I definitely am picking up quite a few names and occasionally socialising. For me it's just the current platform nerds are socialising on until this one gets too popular/ruined and we have to move again.

[-] SeductiveTortoise@piefed.social 1 points 4 months ago

I mean of course that's how we use it. It's just vastly different to the other networks, at least for me. The topic vs person difference is something I really enjoy though.

[-] krooklochurm@lemmy.ca 3 points 4 months ago

This is an anonymous forum.

[-] yardratianSoma@lemmy.ca 1 points 4 months ago

I mean, if I google my name, lemmy doesn't appear in any of the results. My personal info is not associated with my lemmy account. So, how would anyone know that I have an account? I don't even use gmail, and people are confused enough when I tell them that, let alone that I use something called lemmy.

Lucky you, you're free to visit America!

[-] Ininewcrow@piefed.ca 11 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Create a Facebook account with your full name that is on your passport and just post endless cat memes and nothing else. Keep it active regularly and post at least once a week. Whenever you have a block of time, post dozens or hundreds of cat memes, and comment with other people about cats.

Maintaining this account will become mandatory if you want to travel from now on. If you want, do the same with Instagram, Twitter and YouTube. Just non stop cat memes.

Log on to these accounts when you go through immigration.

If you want to use Facebook \ Instagram \ Twitter \ YouTube with friends, use a second account that is not remotely connected to your real name.

User anonymous accounts for everything else.

Another alternative is don't visit the US

ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

[-] TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 8 points 4 months ago

Yup. It's unfortunate. I want to visit the US but it had become one of the countries I would not visit alongside China because of Orwellian surveillance.

[-] CitizenKong@lemmy.world 8 points 4 months ago

Exactly this. On the plus side, Canada is a great country to visit too.

[-] Ininewcrow@piefed.ca 2 points 4 months ago

Lol .... I'm ojibway Canadian, an indigenous person from Canada. I speak my language fluently and I even read and write it (although at a very basic level).

The symbols you used are a variation of syllabics that we use to write my language.

I immediately tried to read it before realizing after a minute what you were doing.

Lol ... I had a good laugh about it

[-] DeathByBigSad@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 months ago

Bold of you to assume other countries won't start doing the same thing.

Authoritarianism is on the rise.

Only the most deranged, cursed and absolutely hilarious. Wanna take a look?

[-] einlander@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago

So in 5 years these young tourists from the countries that banned kids from social media will do what? They were legally mandated to stay off. And since they are brainrot free why would they start? Hell, why would they come to the US?

[-] pfr@piefed.social 5 points 4 months ago

Lol, jokes on them. Not only do I not use social media, but I also don't want to visit the US. Been there a few times. Never going back.

[-] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 1 points 4 months ago

I'm in this same boat. Unless you count Reddit, or Lemmy, they ain't finding shit.

Not that I want to go to that shit hole country.

[-] SantasMagicalComfort@piefed.world 3 points 4 months ago

I personally wouldn't want to do that.

[-] sturmblast@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Quit your social media, delete/rename your accounts, AND STOP USING YOUR REAL NANE ON THE INTERNET
