Also to anyone saying “well how can they deport a citizen when the other country won’t take them since they’re not one of their citizens?”
That’s the point…. They’ll stay locked up in internment camps because the US “is looking into their citizenship status” and they’ll stay there for an indefinite time.
What a convenient pretext to round up Beijing's wishlist of exiles.
How likely do y'all think that I as a US Citizen with Chinese ancestry is gonna get deported.
Becausing looking back in history, e.g the Chinese Exclusion Act, it doesn't give me too much hope.
Welp out of one dicatorship into another 🤷♂️
Oh the situation is even more messed up considering the fact that in Chinese law, citizenship is automatically revoked when you obtain foreign citizenship. Guess I could end up stateless, in a CCP dictatorship.
Fuck this world.
Depends on how Americanized you are and how racist your area is.
My concern is that they'll further weaken the already pathetic judicial process for deportation (justifying it by saying it speeds up the process "and we have so many cases to get through") and citizens who get swept up by the machine won't have a chance to prove their citizenship. Because when the REAL goal is oppression and elimination of a minority group, "accidentally" deporting a few hundred citizens is a feature not a bug.
If it gets that bad, your only hope is to have your documents on you at all times and hope that you're lucky enough for the boots on the ground to walk past you because of it.
Would probably be helpful to have a passport to demonstrate citizenship.
Make sure you have your birth certificate with you.
I got citizenship derived from my mom's naturalization while I was under 18. I'm gonna make copies of the document and photo backups just in case. But I'm afraid this orange dickhead is gonna attempt mass-denaturalization by making up bogus "CCP Spy" accusations.
When they come around, tell them you hate LGBTQ people, Black people, etc. That may protect you short-term.
During the 1930s when there was a mass Mexican deportation, there were a lot of US citizens rounded up and deported. Don't trust these guys will not make the same mistake. Of course, a decade later, Mexicans streamed across the border to mind farms and ranches while US manpower was in WWII. They kinda helped win the war by keeping the nation and it's troops fed.
First they came for...
Noteworthy, Trump's support from Asian American voters grew 5 points to 39% in 2024.
The AsiansMAGA PAC raised $77,063.89 for Trump, outspending some other Asian American PACs but admittedly not as much as the AAPI.
Not saying they deserve it or anything, but there certainly will be some leopards eating the faces among them.
That anti-blackness the majority of Asian residents like to indulge in is biting them in the ass now.
It’s worth mentioning that there should be some distinction between first and second+ generation immigrants. Often even amongst each other there is division so those who support Trump may not have to worry about being deported.
Once again. This is because less people voted democratic. Same number over a smaller total is a larger percentage.
Seeing 10M less Democrats vote when the Republican numbers were about the same was the biggest gut check I had. People would rather just not vote, than vote for a half black woman. That was really sad. And don’t anyone dare tell me it was about Gaza, that’s just a load of BS.
Kamala Harris did not lose because she's not a white man and perpetuating that myth is not helping.
She lost because she didn't speak to the working class.
She didn't lay out any plans nor promise any relief to the millions of people struggling.
She said she wouldn't do anything different than Biden with Palestine.
She parading around a Republican and tried to draw in the non-existent middle voter.
She promised more of the same when "the same" already wasn't good enough.
Was she the better choice? Absolutely. Did she lose because she's not a white man? FUCK NO and parroting that bullshit excuse is just distracting from the issues that actually need fixing.
"It's not the Greeks, it's the Chinese he's after"
"undocumented"
Well, I mean, if they're undocumented they're already just one bad luck away from getting deported, the question is, how does he plan to catch them if they're not getting caught already?
"Papers, please"
They're hitting the detain button immediately.
