You clearly must be joking
Any “regime” like you describe, which btw, the US is not even remotely close to being unsafe for travelers as you imply, will take anything you carry on yourself without any due process
I’m not saying they “threaten” you with it
I’m not saying they “can” but won’t do that to you
I’m saying they just do it.
Try traveling to Palestine, Yemen, Venezuela, China, Iraq, Afghanistan or North Korea.
You will get the idea of what a “Regime” actually is
With any luck we will hear about you on the news haha
Like, a lot? Probably more or less same as you, surely
Just being able to move, own stuff, save my work for the future and be free to speak my mind without coercion are huge boons
And to do so efficiently without so much physical work or being afraid for my life every second is a bless
But my freedom is not absolute, you surely understand
