Summary
Asian American groups are preparing for potential deportations of undocumented Chinese nationals, particularly military-age men, under Trump’s proposed immigration policies.
Sources indicate Chinese nationals may be prioritized due to alleged national security concerns, reflecting broader anti-China sentiment.
Community organizations are creating multilingual resources, coordinating legal support, and educating families on their rights.
Trump’s rhetoric ties Chinese immigrants to fears of espionage, intensifying anxieties.
Advocates highlight the historical targeting of minority groups during national security crises and warn of significant impacts on vulnerable communities, urging solidarity and swift action.
Even if you were born here, he wants to revoke citizenship from second-generation immigrants too.
Yeah, that is even more insane. Removing birthright citizenship is just sick.
I’d say the constitution means he can’t do that… but…
The Supreme Court is basically Trump
There is a part in the consistution that says you are a citizen if: A or B and C. Birthright comes from A, where as people who travel to the USA need B and C, and people believe that means A or (B and C).
Trump wants it to be (A or B) and C.
Yeah and then? Where are you going to send them?
You can’t just toss them on a plane to Mexico, Mexico will send that back. These aren’t Mexican citizens, that’s now how this works, that’s not how anything works.
So what is it going to be? Greenland?
If their American citizenship is revoked and they’re not citizens anywhere else, then they would be stateless. There are international laws to help avoid people from becoming stateless, and special methods for stateless people to claim asylum. But clearly, Trump doesn’t care about international laws.
Applying reason and logic to their actions is a mistake. iirc, when we did it to the Japanese-Americans, we just detained the ones we couldn’t deport, and just kinda held them…
Citizenship is usually determined by where your parents have citizenship or where you were born. In Mexico, if the parent has citizenship, the kids can be nationalized. China could be harder though, if the Chinese parent was an American citizen. I have no idea how they’d treat it if that citizenship was revoked, but the kids wouldn’t normally be citizens if a Chinese parent acquired American citizenship and had the kids born as Americans. Normally countries don’t get into revoking citizenship because everyone has to have a country or last resort who is obligated to take them. Would be a rough situation to be stuck in. If you have money, you can buy citizenship in a lot of places though. Lots of EU countries allow that too.

I’m a 15th generation American citizen and I still feel threatened
This is it.
They aren’t even gonna try to prove the accusations are legitimate.
How far back does he want to go, exactly?
Far enough to create an ethnostate, probably.
1619?
Correct, he’s going to revoke both his own and his kid’s citizenship.
Obviously the rules don’t apply to dear leader but some of us are 2/3/4 generation immigrants and voted against the orange Turd but might now be caught up in this dragnet of hate.
