Not to mention being totally unsafe for any immigrant who crosses Trump.

I LOL’d at taking the ADL as a credible source. Any group who tried to spin Musk’s Nazi salute has no business speaking publicly ever again. I hope Wikipedia continues to give them the respect they deserve — none at all.

Understandable. But they may have no choice. A flat 25% tariff on all US goods and an extra 100% on anything made with at least 51% components produced in red states would be an appropriate response, I think.

US: You need to stand on your own! You’re pathetic!

Also the US: We didn’t mean it! Sit back down!

Actually, he’d probably be a great asset: easily manipulated, not smart enough to realize it, not likely to try and escape. With President Musk handling him, it seems he’d be just about the best asset.

By this argument, we should never trust any survey outcome because we can never be 100% sure that no one lied. Even in personal interviews, people can lie.

Maybe I missed the point?

If it was a random representative sample, what difference does it make that it was conducted online?

In the US, all these notices are called “Travel Advisories.” They range from Level 1 Normal Precautions to Level 4 Do Not Travel. A US publication might not get the terminology exactly right in its English version.

That said, good on every country advising against US travel right now. It’s even less safe than usual.

What about the AI generated translation?
