Fucking hell can we not ruin relations with Japan before I get the chance to study abroad there? I have to wait until next spring at earliest chance, but I wanted to wait until later to go there... 😩
you might find yourself fleeing there at this rate.
Easy solution: Don't go. Don't do business with them. Sell any American assets you own and don't look back.
As an American I agree. We need the world to boycott america. The people and institutional leadership roles in America have demonstrated that their more than willing to fold like a house of cards to the fascist regime but foreigners seem not to feel that pressure so they need to step up and Destroy America
Joke’s on them, I have no social media
..they stated on a social media comment.
This space definitely doesn’t count as social media.
Right. Can you imagine 50 years from now they say to you, “you’re not allowed in because of that one time when you were twelve you blah blah blah…”
It’s a big joke just like the tariffs.
“It’s the death certificate of the land of the free,” posted one X user. “The United States is now pursuing policies similar to those of China’s Cultural Revolution. Considering how destructive the Cultural Revolution was to China, I think that if things continue this way, the United States will decline more than we can imagine. I can only pray that this will not happen, but I am currently feeling pessimistic,” wrote another.
This is horribly invasive and everyone should make burner accounts to give them instead. We need to sabotage the fascist Border Police and all their efforts to harm people
Would be nice if the article defined what 'SNS' is. I gather it's social media, but what is the initialism?
Social Networking Service. It's a common initialism in Japan
Guess I'm not going.
