    Oh, so this is what they call democracy? If you do not share their “values” you cannot get into their country? Well… It seems we have a lot to learn from the US about tolerance and free thinking…

      I get the sentiment but look at it the other way. If we consider socialist countries to be democratic, I doubt we’d allow a fascist (who doesn’t share our values obviously) to migrate either.

        Yes but the problem is the US preaches idealist notions of freedom and tolerance of both sides so it’s just another example of their hypocrisy not that we needed any more

          I know but the person I replied to seems to take issue with the notion of “excluding someone for wrongthink” in general, regardless of any side.
