Look dude. The whole reason the US has been successful a society is because it is built upon freedom guaranteed by the bill of rights. That applies to anyone who is here. Our constitutional rights are there to protect us from a tyrannical government - and hopefully prevent that tyranny from coming in the first place. If you don’t believe in those freedoms then get the fuck out and stop supporting those people who want to take them from everyone else.

Actually… I think they do. I bought a gun recently and it asked all the stuff about whether you are a citizen or not. That’s just one of those funny things about the bill of rights - it applies to anyone stateside and any citizen abroad.

Yeah, that one stunk of him being a literal spy. Hard to tell from the lack of information from our few remaining journalistic news sources though.

Yeah they wanted to hurt the elite universities - but they missed their targets and will instead hurt all of the third tier state schools that actually have low enough barriers to cater to everyone.

That’s only true for private schools.

Yeah, immigration laws in other countries are very difficult. The US’s immigration policies are vastly easier, even with the politics and bureaucratic hurdles, quotas and lotteries, because there are at least legal pathways for people without tens of millions of dollars. If I wanted to become a citizen in any other first world country it basically can’t be done. I could get a permanent visa in some of those countries because of my education and profession - but never citizenship.

Now some of those countries may be opening up their citizenship process to take advantage of the brain drain. The US is going to lose so much more than just money. It’s truly heart breaking.

It literally means freedom from consequences by the government. Not from society. Sure he could’ve been a social pariah and people would’ve been within their rights to ostracize him. But it is unconstitutional for our government to threaten him with legal action as a result of his politics.
