A 21-year-old Norwegian man says he was denied entry into the US after border agents found an edited meme of US vice-president J.D. Vance on his phone.
Do they really want me to be trapped? 😮 might go to El Salvador, but trapped?
I’m brown with a thick beard, so I’m used to being “naturally suspicious and prone to explosion” whenever I am within a 5 km distance of an airport. Yet US airports would scare the shit out of me
Definitely seen south Italians darker than me 😂 but coupled with “exotic looks” and the ability to actually tan it’s definitely plenty to produce the “terrorist look” and stand out in Scandinavia
Well yeah, if you’re trapped in one of our many prisons, you get to look forward to slave labor! Slavery is perfectly legal and constitutional, as per the 13th amendment.
I am honestly wondering how long it will be before you are eligible for refugee claims in the world with the state of affairs in your country. You aren’t trapped though! Come to Canada! We have a bunch of issues now, but it will be a breathe of fresh air compared to the issues you face.
Why isn’t it that simple? People leave their countries for a better life everyday. If the situation is as bad as claimed I can see no reason why regardless of complexity it isn’t the option chosen.
It isn’t simple. Most people I know who have moved to other countries hired an immigration attorney to help. It’s not cheap. Also, you can’t just show up in Canada and get a job. There is a legal process that must be followed. If you don’t have employment with a work visa ahead of time, you have to show proof you have the savings to live without working until you find a job to enter the country to look for work there. Many people don’t have months of expenses in an emergency account to lean on. Lots of impediments.

Do you think any of this should matter to someone who needs to flee a country for their safety? Do you know how many people need to do such things on a regular basis? Why do you believe Americans are different?
Americans are not used to being in this position and are freezing in place. They tell themselves it’s “to fight” and to reclaim the country, but they ignore the reality that this could be a bleak path for ostensibly decades upon decades.
The lesson of 1933 is you get out. But lots of Americans won’t because they have never liked history or valued it.
And this is how we achieved a population greater than what our housing can support. Unless you’re ready to fork over 1200-2k a month for a 1 bedroom & 1 bathroom then I would advise against this.
you can support. it’s just your politicians holding back the access to land for new development to satisfy some voters and backers that make a lot of money through property price increases. if there was really any will to solve the problem politicians would have relaxed land use regulations
You should take a peak on what people in the US have to deal with before you go shitting on Canada.
That also isn’t how we got into a housing crisis. That was because the Government stopped building houses, and turned real estate into the monster of an investment vehicle it is today.
As an American, seconded.
I’m trapped here, don’t YOU risk being kidnapped and trapped here or sent somewhere worse just because you wanted to see the Grand Canyon.

Brown like south Italians?

Of only it was that simple

You see, her CDs are in his truck.
Lack of financials, knowledge, and support? “If the situation is as bad as claimed” is crazy tbh.
That sounds a lot like the conditions for people who leave other countries for a better life.

People are already forking over that kind of money in the US, and have been for years.
