      Exactly, they are talking about dozens of names. Who on earth would remember that, let alone want to share it.

    I legitimately do not, and have never had, any of the usual social media. This lemm.ee account is the only one I have, and that’s closing down soon.

    However I would also never visit the us. So it’s all a win/win for me.

      football selling out to Qatar who use slave labour and stone gay people to death, now US who hate foreigners and will detain you at random, and being in 2034 in Saudi Arabia, who also hate human rights is just the icing on the cake. I wanted to fly to the US for the world cup, but fuck that, fuck Trump and his cronies across the globe

      Make a fake one that posts like… idk post random tech stuff that you could be reasonably interested in. Make nothing critical of authority. As a decoy profile.

      Then you can rant about big brother on an anonymous Lemmy Account over TOR.

        It doesn’t matter anyway, there is no rule of law in the united states. You might as well lie, they will likely jail you no matter what you write on that document.

        Just don’t go there.

      As a Native American this attitude would be a lot more understandable and palatable if America wasn’t colonized…

        These immigration raids and terror tactics are terrible on their own, but it’s especially absurd when Native Americans get caught up in it, and it just fully exposes how disingenuous and transparently racist the whole effort is. So I’m sorry that your peoples have to suffer even more because of this racist mindset.

        From a January article:

        ”If you can’t say, ‘we’ve been here for time immemorial,’ then you’re an immigrant. You’re not from here, so who are you to classify our Indigenous people? These lands have been a melting pot for many ethnicities,” Hatathlie [a Native Arizona state Senator] said.

        I heard another more recent example of a car full of Native Americans being pulled over, aggressively questioned, and asked for their papers, but I can’t seem to find it. It’s utterly shameful how we treat people.

        I don’t think that matters.

        It doesn’t matter if you are trying to overthrow, say a US Adversary like Russia or China, its still counts. I guess the logic is: If you are willing to use violence in [Insert Country Here], how do we know you wont try it here?

        A lot of the initial supporters of a revolution/coup gets purged so they don’t become a threat to the new authority themselves. Like hitler and the S.A. for example.

        MAGAt supporters are just useful idiots, if they successfully fully take over, those same supporters now become the new threat that needs to be purged.

          Quite a few of the current crop of deputized ICE agents are MAGA goons from four years ago. So long as you’re actively doing the gruesome work of ethnic cleansing, you’ll be given a pass.
