I haven't get my #viss, but since last year I was thinking about it. With these news and for what you see from the #USA, there is no way that I'll throw myself into that humilliation
People want to immigrate to the USA still? Bizarre.
There are still countries even worse than the US.
And I think you're underestimating the strength of an immigrant's will to take risks to attempt to find a better life. Immigrants have suffered far worse throught US History.
I mean, just take a look at Wong Kim Ark. Dude didn't just give up and leave, he stood his ground and fought though it, even though he had no idea if the US would even consider his case seriously.
And many people already have relatives in the US. So these are the risks they are willing to take to reunite. Unlike many westerners, who just completely give up on the slightest obstacles.
(Although I do think the much better option now is the EU, if they don't have any relatives in the US already.)
You can need a visa for tourism.
People want to travel to the USA still? Bizarre.
Ideologically unaligned visitors need not apply. Got to keep America pure, without the pesky freedom of subversive thought.
It's a chance for ~~everyone~~ visitors to practice right think.
While looking for a link, I found links that make me think some folks are trying to unironically reclaim the term "right think". Gross.
Too many people aren't reading 1984 anymore, while billionaires thought it was a "how to" guide.
Just don't wait to ask Grok what it thinks "Right Think" is, as Musk plans for it to rewrite human knowledge and understanding with a new lens. :')
Good thing I delete that crap 10+ years ago. Enjoy the shitty data and memes!
Same, but it worries me that now I look like I'm hiding something.
I guess technically I am hiding something: It's disdain. Disdain for shitty social media is what I'm hiding.
This is kind of stupid. I don't even remember social media tags I've used. Who would want to go through this shit to get into redneckville?
This was explained to me years ago. They don't give a fuck about what you said. They want you to lie, in case they need to fuck you up. If for some reason they want to screw you, they'll look for these uids, and if you hadn't declared, they'll slap perjury charges on you.
Exactly, they are talking about dozens of names. Who on earth would remember that, let alone want to share it.
I legitimately do not, and have never had, any of the usual social media. This lemm.ee account is the only one I have, and that's closing down soon.
However I would also never visit the us. So it's all a win/win for me.

"Well that can't be right. Highly suspicious. What do you have to hide?"
"What do you have to hide?"
Grizzly murders. Loads of them!!
...

J/k. It's my privacy. All those horrific murders were really easy to get away with, keeping my privacy private however...
welcome to Autocracy ladies and gentlemen, sit back, grab some popcorn and pay attention to your neighbours, some might start dissappearing soon
dont threaten americans with what they want and voted for.
football selling out to Qatar who use slave labour and stone gay people to death, now US who hate foreigners and will detain you at random, and being in 2034 in Saudi Arabia, who also hate human rights is just the icing on the cake. I wanted to fly to the US for the world cup, but fuck that, fuck Trump and his cronies across the globe
Lol, now even the dumbest asshole should understand that they should cancle their US vacation...
Well, that’s one more reason to never come to the USA again
What if you don't have social media accounts?
That's even worse.
"quite suspicous what do you have to hide?" and then they smack you with batons arrest you and put you in jail with gang members muders and every evil and vile person
Right away, jail!
This is stupid. This will not stop spies and terrorists, they will just create fake accounts. This will only hurt legitimate immigrants.
This is for non immigrant visas it says
What I said can be applied to any type of visa. The policy is not going to fix anything, it's only going to invade peoples privacy and turn away legitimate visa applicants.
USA being USA
Btw don’t forget to switch instance
