Depending on the intricacies of tax treaties you probably won’t pay much US tax after moving to a high taxation country. Relinquishing US citizenship when you are wealthy means paying the capital gains exit tax on your worldwide assets though so if you can afford good accountants, keeping both is probably easier

And in the US (I refuse to call it America) helmet laws tend to be selectively enforced against minorities

That’s a good parallel - AfD like the Dixiecrats and now the GOP MAGA base have a geographical stronghold (in this case the “new states” of former East Germany)

An alternate future without German reunification is interesting to imagine, ditto one without a Aus Civil War where the south just seceded

Yeah. I know Indonesia is cracking down on phone smuggling now by locking carrier access to registered IMEIs

If you bring one back you get a cheaper import fee if you declare it immediately
