I get that, but I don’t like normalizing the social media disclosures. Too creepy. If there’s that much question, don’t let them in.

‘If there’s that much question, don’t let them in.’

Excellent advice.

I don't have a problem with it. If someone is willing to post their opinion publicly, they can own it.

It is a bit much. For one thing people do change over 5 years. Especially young people. I would not judge an 20 year old solely by what they posted when they were 16.

Agree 100%. The last thing we need is to normalize government scrutiny of people’s social media accounts. It may affect only visa applicants now, but once the precedent has been set the government can use that against US citizens as well, particularly if there’s a war or terrorist attack. From there it’s just a short hop to China’s social credit score program.
