Are we now adding US to the list of countries cracking down on free speech?

Yes. The moment you must show allegiance to a sitting president, your rights to free speech have been abridged. I am sure there are many more examples.

This term "sitting" is doing a lot of work. Have you seen the guy's posture? I guess the term "teetering on the edge of a chair president" doesn't have the same ring to it.

It's not about terrorism. It's about keeping people with political views that don't align with Stephen Miller and Donald Trump out. This stuff is actively harming the US.

The drop in tourists from Western Europe certainly appears to be significant. Apparently the US is running a tourism deficit for the first time in a while.

A deficit?! Tariff the tourists!

Telling the US government it's broken is a favor to the US government. Freedom of speech is a gift to both the people of this country and the institution itself, helping it be pure and accountable. It's the force that prevents us from becoming like China. Those who seek to stop that regulating force are undermining what makes America great. Where those voices of dissent were born isn't pertinent.

This is naive, it's clear that someone without a stake in a country could just be an agent provocateur.

I feel like this is a ridiculous bad-faith argument. You know damned well that banning people from the country for having a JD vance meme on their phone is not stopping international agents. Arguing by presently demonstrably false hypotheticals as though they were reality makes me think it's a waste of everybody's breath talking to you.

Along with the push for ending birth right citizenship and detaining citizens the goal is a white ethnostate. I doubt Trump is that cognizant of that but Stephen Miller definitely is pushing for that.

> Along with the push for ending birth right citizenship Which other countries in the world allow pregnant vacationers to birth citizens?

It's enshrined in the constitution. You're welcome to try to ammend the constitution to make it a white only nation. Good luck with that. I guess upping the bribes to certain scotus justices also works.

This is a blatantly false comment. For the sake of other viewers on HN that is not familiar with Korean politics, this is totally fake (and is probably pushing the views of the Korean alt-right). United States sharply criticized Yoon after his unconstitutional martial law declaration, publishing pretty strong remarks that it was illegimate[0]. They have consistently spoke (in diplomatic language) that they do not sup…

Would it? What makes aSM account "official"? If I make a burner account, it's still my account.

Entry can be denied if you claim to have no social media accounts, so you can in fact only give one of your choosing to gain entry.

Whether not disclosing any others is visa fraud is a matter of legal consideration iff other accounts are discovered before the collapse of the current administration.
