    FIVE YEARS? That’s an eternity in internet time. That’s like asking you to remember your 3rd grade nickname.

          So who's betting with me that this won't be canceled ever, like TSA screenings, even if the US would find their way back to a democracy (after some very intense protests / a civil war 2.0 probably)?

            No it's fine, it's a defense mechanism.

              Despite everything, this remains a state created by Enlightenment liberals, extremely decentralized, with a powerful independent judiciary and literally the strongest speech protections in the world.

              Obviously the direction of travel is wrong, but let's keep some perspective.

              PS: disappointing to see such a display of irrational groupthink in this community, I had hoped for better. Perhaps the instance was a clue.

              The first president stole his shiny new teeth from the mouths of living humans that he kept as property.

              So lets take this with an entire dead sea worth of salt.

                    Every time I hear the news from the USA I think: it's not like things were peachy before Trump 2.0 or even 1.0. How much worse can it get?

                    I mentally added the US to countries with weird draconian authoritarian rules like Russia, China, North Korea, etc.

                      Many countries are putting out tourism warnings for people wanting to travel there. Invasive practices on entry, chance of being detained if you're any number of minorities, generally more dangerous, and an increased risk of catching an infectious disease.

                        Yes, and fortunately, a lot of people seem to be paying attention. Our government thinks we don't need the rest of the world? Let us rot in isolation.

                          At this rate there'll be more people who love America outside it than inside it!

                              As someone who doesn't have any social media, aside from this place, I always wonder what the reaction would be to me.

                              from my experience dealing with nosy wouldbe-employers and being on an immigrant watchlist:

                              they don't believe for a second you don't use social media; and if you don't, then you did at some point, and they'll find it; and if they don't find it, then that's suspicious, because obviously everyone uses social media, so you must be a criminal, using some dark web social media. and then you get credit checked forty times, only for them to find you have no debt and thus no credit score, and then they just assume you're not a real person and call the cops.
