I find conflicting information when I look this up. How true is this claim?
Wow, this must have been Trump’s plan all along to reduce crashes in the DC SFRA! What a genius!
With all the news of ICE arresting and abusing tourists in my countries news recently I would also think twice before traveling to the US if I don’t have to. Not like there aren’t other just as interesting/beautiful, cheaper and by now tbh safer countries to travel to.
Besides all the moral questions wrt the slowish slide into fascism ofc.
UK and Germany made warnings not to go to the US. The US is like North Korea now, lol.
I’m in the UK, my friends are well read but hadn’t heard of the detention of tourists. One of them still plans to go on holiday next month… mad
I can tweet at my president to show me his balls.
Can’t do that in North Korea.
Not for very much longer, he’s working on limiting speech that he feels is critical of him. You watch
You should do that.
You can in North Korea. Once.
As a citizen of the US, I’m nervous about leaving and getting back in.
What a surprise that people do not want to visit a country while it is in a speed run to the bottom. You never know when shit hits the fan with full force. You just know you do not want to be there when it happens.
I fucking live here but I’m not a doctor so nobody wants to take me. I’m exploring options from my Eastern European heritage now to try and apply for asylum in the same country that my grandfather fled almost 80 years ago.
If my grandfather were still alive to see me attempting to flee what he fought against as a 17 year old soldier, it would absolutely make him sick to his stomach.
I hope you manage to get out. I might be wrong, maybe the USA get their shit back together, but it sure does not seem likely from outside. I will tell you this, when my fellow countryman give fascism the majority (50% for the AfD in Germany) i will get the fuck out because as far as i am concerned at that point its already the enemies territory.
Those cases where they put tourists into jail for no reason at all for several weeks were headline news here in Germany and I assume also in other parts of the world. That will harm your tourist industry.
I feel so sorry for US Americans. I honestly do.
Will write code for visa
Same boat man! Will design you a satellite constellation for a visa.
Got any friends who develop cube sats? We could do some real good work with I2P and satellite modems. We could link up with the kinetic launch people and set up a new opensource encrypted internet.
My coworkers on my current project are also supporting a cube sat mission that just launched. I’m not sure I follow what’s really unique about a cube sat mission though?
I think the kinetic launch is a cool idea from a physics perspective, but from a systems perspective, it’s going to be fucking difficult to build systems to withstand it.
Yeah, but they could have stopped this by marking a piece of paper, so…
People will be saying the same type of things about Canada soon; how it was our fault for letting our military decline, how we bought so much American product, how we let their culture take us over, how we didn’t cultivate a bigger place for ourselves in the world but were content to live complacent next to a volcano.
For the most part people don’t want the consrant struggle. Just to vote when it’s time, keep up with global events, maybe protest if it’s a big enough issue. But we still need to focus on family and career, fun and rest, peace and quiet.
For Them, the cause is their job, their activities, their meaning. I don’t think most of us realize how big the industry to manufacture consent is. When they have a bill prepared, before it even gets legislated they’re already working on the next step, either how to redo it if it fails or how to build on it if it passes. They don’t sleep, winning is their only purpose.
I just don’t think we can afford to alienate anyone on our side. Telling someone there’s nothing they can do to make something right generally just makes them think they have to look out for themselves.

no foreigners in mai country yeeha!
Why is tourism down?
From: Fuck all of you!.
To: Brother. Can you spare some eggs?.
Oh so sad.
/s
Guess America should not have elected an orange fascist fuckwhit gameshow host to their highest office.
If the rest of the world thinks their immune to fascism they’ll find out quickly they are not. Fascism doesn’t come about by votes alone. Fascism is a defense response of capitalism when it is in decline. Those votes are manufactured by media, xenophobia, and a decline to the material conditions of the working class. I’m sure it won’t be so as entertaining as American politics is. But it will be just as dangerous nonetheless.
The more working class people leave DC, the happier I will be when the asteroid hits.

The zoo in DC is pretty dope, most of it is free as it is part of a park.
Idk though, the central parts of DC where lots of successful people are is suffocating to me. You go out to lunch and everyone has shoes on that cost more than your car and they sound like two LinkedIn chatbots conversing when this is supposedly a break from work?
Ewww
I know there are MANY other facets to DC I haven’t seen though!
Wonder if this is a nationwide thing or if DC is hit particularly hard since it’s the heart of the evil empire.
i’m terrified of what the government will do when world pride comes to dc in a few months </3
Likely they will try and make it illegal on as many levels as they can.
As a Canadian, I couldn’t be happier.
Maybe we can annex some of these poor should to a country that cares.
Mostly.
*Dulles airport is in Virginia, not DC
That’s like saying the New York Giants play in NJ
It’s about 8 miles from the stadium to midtown.
It’s about 26 miles from Dulles to DC.
Toronto’s main international airport is in Mississauga, about 17 miles (28km) from downtown Toronto.
It’s pretty normal for metropolitan areas to span more than one state, and many municipalities, served by a single international airport that is in the suburbs of that major city.
The point is that if you’re flying international in or out of DC, IAD is literally your closest option. And if you’re flying there, it’s probably because you’re visiting DC and not some Civil War battlefield in rural Virginia. Functionally speaking, it’s DC’s airport.
Who want to go in hell?
I have it on authority of the vatican that’s where all the gamblers and prostitutes go, so it sounds fun to me.
America, fuck no!
There’s plenty of other better motherfucking countries!
