Australian here.
When I was a kid some 30 years ago everyone wanted to go to America. It was seen as this amazing society where you could do anything, be anything, see anything!
It’s not that way anymore.
Now it’s seen as a dangerous place, where you have to take measures like in this article to protect yourself.
Trump really has destroyed your country’s reputation. It’s incredible.
For your safety, please don't travel to the US. There is a very real possibility of you being kidnapped and sent to a slave labor camp without due process.
I am ashamed and afraid of my country.
Thats just not true. Damn you Americans want to be victims so badly.
but people have been deported while in america, even ones who are legal. https://www.npr.org/2025/04/07/nx-s1-5354921/deportation-el-salvador-albrego-garcia-supreme-court-dhs-ice-trump-administration, this is one i could find
Deportation isn't being kidnapped and sent to slave labour camps.
The prison is a labor camp you twat.
And they literally grabbed at least one student off the street and took them straight to detention with no due process. There’s no one stopping them from taking them to El Salvador from there either.
And the US prisons don’t sound any better really. Mylar blankets and 24 lights is a form of torture.
