There's no actual evidence to suggest it's being used to silence criticism in the USA either though. This woman didn't go to the USA. She didn't get denied entry.

There is lots of anecdotal evidence of people who have been critical of trumps on social media being denied entry, including high profile cases.

Anecdotal means nothing. Most are just like this, fear mongering where it didn’t actually happen.

You're missing the point. This anecdotal evidence is where it did happen and is verified by the media It's painting a patter of vis refusal for online criticism of Trump.

The article in this topic? She never went to America! Some random unnamed lawyer said she could maybe possibly run into some trouble lol.

She didn’t get denied entry, sent back, or thrown in the gulag.

Lots of missing info in that story. You can’t just carry someone’s ashes into the USA. It doesn’t sound like he went through the correct processes to do that, which is a huge biological hazard risk and that alone would be enough to deny entry.
