Comment on If the 2028 United States presidential election was held today, who would you vote for?
fonix232@fedia.io 1 week agoThat's because you're US-centric still.
Other countries, interestingly, didn't have all these issues prior to TSA hardening the screening process post-9/11.
All those countries and airports, however, upped their processes when the US did, making air travel a chore instead of a good experience.

Obviously I am US-centric. This is a thread about voting in US elections (??)
I do happen to fly to UK, and generally to LBA or MAN, which are easily two of the worst / most annoying airports in Europe.
Both of them have made great improvements over the past ~18 months though.
CDG is also particularly annoying imo.

I literally specified that the changes in TSA will affect airports "in other countries".
Barfing in that pre-TSA the US air travel market was a shitshow contributed nothing to the discussion of how introducing the TSA and their stringent, invasive procedures fucked up air travel for other countries. Which, again, I very clearly specified.

Honestly I am quite happy with better air travel security and safety, and not particularly interested in going back to a time when any random Greek anarchist assholes or PLA or whatever are stabbing flight attendants or sticking bombs on Pan Am flights
You sound too young to remember, so read up a little.
