As a former PRC Citizen, this fucking hurts.
Why is every country I step foot in, either a dictatorship, or is becoming, a dictatorship?

A lot of Americans are hurt, too, but that’s nothing compared to what you’re dealing with.
Even though there’s been plenty wrong with our country, at least we knew we could become a home for people who needed it. Not a great home, but at least we could provide basic security. Now we can’t even manage that.
Is that trump’s plan? Make America so unappealing that refugees and migrants will not want to come here? “Immigration crisis solved!”
"welcoming..."
I mean, the ones that aren't welcoming them would still think everything is normal.
Hence, the ones that are pro immigration would be like: "Yeaa... welcome... btw we kinda have a wannabe dictator for president... but enjoy your stay 🙃"
Well, citizens living under democraties should really start to realize that human rights need to be protected continously. Once we let our guard down and take them for granted, that's when authoritarians are able to dismantle them one by one.
