You should absolutely be treating the US government as a hostile entity. Many Americans are also treating it as such, and are organizing emergency preparations (mainly go-bags) for things like martial law, civil war, and being targeted as a result of belonging to a prohibited minority group. You should take the US government's threats seriously. We are.

Transgender Americans and other minority groups are feeling it for sure. It's just not the white suburban traditional family Americans who have felt the pinch yet (aside from the price of eggs).

I hope with time we can prove to you that there's Americans here fighting against this. I know it doesn't look great now, and don't blame you for hating us and our country. As an American, I also hate us and our country.

I know Europeans hate us Americans and I understand why. I've never supported Trump and have fought with my dollar, vote, and time, but I am just too ashamed to show my face in the EU any time soon.

If you factory reset your Bravia and then decline all the Google features (don't sign in, etc.) it's about as close to a dumb TV as you can get these days.

Yes, tragically. Don't buy a Samsung Odyssey monitor like I did. It takes 7 button presses to change the input and there's a Disney+, Netflix, and Prime Video dedicated buttons on the remote.

I'm looking to "down"-grade ASAP.

My TV and computer monitor are deny-listed on my router, and I'm angry that I even have to do that.

I think this diff makes it pretty clear its time to run, not walk: https://circumstances.run/@davidgerard/114078708183574404
