Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Summary

China’s Ministry of Culture and Tourism issued a travel warning for the U.S., citing deteriorating China-U.S. trade relations and domestic U.S. security concerns.

The Ministry of Education also warned students about studying in the U.S., following Ohio’s Higher Education Act, which impacts Chinese-American academic exchanges.

The move follows Trump's tariff hikes, now totaling 104%, prompting China to raise tariffs on U.S. imports to 84%.

Several European countries also updated travel advisories. Both nations remain entrenched in an escalating trade war with no resolution in sight.

I have friends scared to leave the country. Husbands/spouses from Canada or Mexico. Friends that did research in Cuba, Venezuela, some other country that Trump defaults to everyone is evil. After the detention of the canadians and germans, everyone's scared of US travel. No one is scared to visit an east/southeast asian country. Everyone is a bit scared of going through US customs/border crossings

No one is scared to visit an east/southeast asian country.

North Korea might be an exception here.

Myanmar isn't a great tourist spot right now either, unless civil war is your thing.
