TL;DR: Yes.
On September 20, 2023 Agustina Vergara Cid wrote an article for the New Ideal, published by the Ayn Rand Institute, titled “Ideological Screening is Un-American.” Trump is criticized for his desire to keep communists, Marxists, and socialists out of our country. The reasoning is that ideological screening will “take America one step closer to totalitarianism” because “giving the government power to screen immigrants’ ideologies means handing government the expansive power to police everyone’s ideas,” and this would mean ending the freedom of thought. I disagree.
The purpose of screening is to protect our citizens from those who would abuse individual rights. communists, Marxists, and socialists should be kept out of the country. They have no respect for individual rights such as freedom of thought. Their goal is to destroy the United States.
TL;DR: Yes.
