OPT & Finances for F1

I have been selected for UPenn's MSE Robotics program. I don't wish to stay in the USA for things like a green card and all that. I would prefer Europe, Japan, or somewhere with better living standards. I know that in the visa interview, they ask about OPT/CPT. Should I give a clear no? Will that hamper my prospects of applying for OPT/CPT later (just in case)?

Also, should I have financial documents for all of my parents' lifetime income? Do they ask that? For my I20, I had shown a bank statement (1cr+) that comes from savings and investments. My father has also filed for a loan (though it's not needed and just for saving some tax). Will the VO scrutinize this?

Social Media Scrutiny

So I have a habit of liking whatever trash comes up on my feed (Instagram). During the West Asia war, it was flooded with US-Iran memes or perhaps something political that I might have liked. Is that okay? I'm not really political, but I'm unsure if this would look good.
