'“Welcome, but be good” is not the language of citizenship.
It is the language of a landlord. Or a bouncer. Or a king.'
Double creepy with the dog-growling posture in the picture, with a side of dumb, as passports are not visas.
The point about merging the "brand" of the USA with the "brand" of Trump is spot on; definitely a disturbing pattern here. Narcissist of fascist? Why not both?

More importantly, the US isn’t the one welcoming someone holding a US passport, so the phrase is nonsense and reflects a complete lack of understanding or at least thought as to the purpose of the document

The passport is real, this style of book will be a limited-edition option when you renew.
The article, though, is AI slop.

The author is a macro economy writer with a 10 years old Twitter account. Most of the article is a quote, then his personal opinion. https://mishtalk.com/about/ I'm all for calling out automated content written by AI/LLM but this one doesn't seem to be.

The quote absolutely reads like AI slop.

Its entirely possible they still used some sort of AI to either transcript or edit their content tho, even if personally dictated by them etc. At which point slop becomes human authorship depends on your POV i guess

That’s not what “AI slop” means and I’m confident you know that.

Integrate or be deported. Try to culturally take over and experience the same. You joined a recipe that works from a place that does not work (as well). Some not at all. Do not bring that recipe for cultural disaster into this country.

Appeals to culture are so cringe in the context of support for Con-ald fucking Grump, who has been the worst thing to happen to our culture and our country in my lifetime. Exhibit A: this train wreck of a "passport". I know you desperately want there to be some innate quality you personally possess that is responsible for "great" things, but the only thing you're actually demonstrating is utterly hopeless gullibility.

Your refusal to even analyze the topic, which you usually declare "just backwards folklore and superstition " gives the game away. Every place that mindset was allowed to run free has burned down to cinders, one way or another. 1 billion people are stuck in learned helplessness in the islamic world. The atheism of the soviet block eats itself right now in a invasion of ukraine. Europe is a getontocratic powderkeg of parallel societies. Everything this "anti-culture" has touched, withers and dies, and all that remains is the hateful comments and insult, of the disabled unable to even comprehend where his failures even originate from,loudly demanding decomplexification of society as final murderous act. Oh and btw fuck trump for trying a soft aspossible break away from this malstrom of failure that is the society your kind tries to compose without any attempt to understand human nature.
