Again, I don’t have a choice in the matter if I want to live in the US. But I don’t have to open myself up to authoritarian governments who have a track record for targeting those who participate in free speech in other countries.
The consent referred to by the other commenter is entirely fabricated and false. I challenge anyone within the US to show the contract giving the current administration explicit consent to govern us.
This level of narrative and dogmatic belief is how governments gain influence. They're simply the local bullies. If you need proof, look at how much they put into caring about struggling people. I.e. next to nothing. Our country betrays us daily and has the gall to demand obedience. We are not dogs.
