Visiting the US in 2025 is like visiting Germany in 1934: if you know anything about what’s going on there, you go on vacation someplace safer.
kinda like visiting modern day russia,
I don’t want to spend my vacation randomly detained for a week for having something that could be construed as anti republican on my cell phone.
Feels dangerous to visit. I dont think there is any feeling of respect for human beings there. Anger and hate has taken over, and the feeling of everyone being part of the same human race doesnt exist in the mind of Trump.
It’s us too, last year we were planing to go this summer, but me and my son bein German and me always lamenting about Trump online, I don’t think it’s a good idea right now.
Yeah, I did lol. Though it being lighter on my wallet was the main reason.
