So, just answer, “I don’t use social media”
Thank you for saying this. I ain’t got no strings on me. I’m a real boy. None of this online shit means anything to me. I’ll nuke it. You could probably figure out who I am. That’s fine. But I’m not gonna pull my pants down and let you diddle me. Come on now… I mean, I would just go out in the real world and say something and get laid but you do know it’s a numbers game for some… I tried Tinder, but it just kept sending me people that I hated. I think if people really understood how useless social media was and how detrimental it is to society, they just stop using it. But then at the same time, the kids are learning about the American Empire and all of its atrocities through social media. So it’s like, I don’t want it to be banned because I want them to get radical. It’s like a transitionary state. And you know, you can’t be an absoluteist, but it’s all garbage in the end. I’ve had friends. I got people that would consider me friendly. I’ve gotten laid numerous times. I’m not insecure. Well, I mean everybody’s a little but I feel like I’ve gone through all the twists and turns to just really see things for what they are. And I could take it or leave it. If people could just see that they’re drinking from a poisonous well. If we all got together… and gave it some kinetic input it would only cost us sweat equity and this funny money don’t mean shit. I’m a material boy in a material world and there ain’t no fucking god. I’m a man of contradiction because I live in a world of contradiction. No Gods No Masters or edongs or cheeze burger kings or even drippy nose poopie pants sleepy ol joes…
No, create a fake social media account praising Trump!

I know someone who legit does not have any social media accounts for almost 20 years in the US on a green card, unless you count their google account. I can imagine the frustration of the bureaucrat that goes, “Oh yeah? We’ll find you…” 10 months later. “You must be a spy!”
This was already the case under Biden (since 2019 at least), and many other countries do the same. Asking for social media usernames when applying for a visa was already a normalized part of the process, so to me this is basically a nothingburger.
Joe Biden is a piece of shit and liberals are idiots. America is an imperialist empire, and fascists are the useful idiots of empire. America is a right-wing country that exploits and terrorizes the rest of the world. Liberals are just too busy wafting in their own brand. Injecting their veins with Hopium. This is not a projection towards the original poster or anyone in particular. I just wanted to express myself online. Eat My ass.
Shit, I didn’t realize you were so young. Back in the 90s, before 9/11, none of these disclosure requirements existed; only a customs declaration was required to enter the country, and the naturalization process consisted of paying a fee, taking a test, and swearing an oath. We used to associate this sort of disclosure requirement with petty kingdoms like Bahrain or Thailand, where there are laws against insulting the monarch and therefore a justification for thought police. We shouldn’t let any of the four presidents who have slid us into fascism avoid the blame.
I was there :) And yes you’re right, but also social media didn’t really exist at the time as we know it now.
The difference is that the US is now denying visas based solely on whether the applicants political speech aligns with the Nazi party.
None of this shit is normal if you understand context and nuance.
What they’re saying is that handling your social handles was always part of a visa application process (at least as far back as 2016). So saying that they now want that is a lie. And there’s zero reason to lie to show the current administration is bad. There’s plenty of truth out there that does the job very well.
It may have existed before but it’s pretty clear this is about weeding out dissenting opinions, to my knowledge the only thing that would previously disqualify you would be extremist opinions that aligned with terrorist groups. Now if at any point you’ve criticized the actions of MAGA then you’re probably SOL. You’d probably be disqualified for saying Elon is a moron. Trying to downplay this as “not news” is pretty disingenuous considering they’ve shown they don’t care about the law or anyone’s constitutional rights.
