Is it? Why? I mean, you’ve got to use a pronoun and these days any pick you make is likely to trigger a response in someone. Use “he”? Paternalistic. Use “she”? “Interesting”. Use “they”? Woke.
Also, what does the pride flag have anything to do with it?

#5What wasn’t clear to me (or I missed it in between all the long winded legal citations) - will I need to reveal the contents of non-public social media accounts? I have a private FB account purely to stay in touch with friends. How would I share this content? Handover credentials? Handover a device? Friend some random federal agencies? Flip my profile to public?
Also, does all this checking happen offline before entry or do they analyse and then pick you up for questioning if they find something questionable? It all sounds very East German.
For those in countries with a Visa waiver arrangement (as I am), it kind of defeats the purpose.
One last thing: I did chuckle when he mentioned it would take some months for the regulations to come into force due to the Paperwork Reduction Act.

#9and I wonder why I can get flights to the US from Australia at historically low prices?

#10I’d feel much safer if a plane I were flying on had to make an emergency landing — on purpose, I do not intend to fly to either of the three countries — in Iran or Russia than in the US. Talk about a damaged reputation.
