    Fun fact, the US government can revoke a person’s Naturalization if the government thinks you are a “terrorist” within 5 years of Naturalization:

    A person is subject to revocation of naturalization if the person becomes a member of, or affiliated with, the Communist party, other totalitarian party, or terrorist organization within five years of his or her naturalization. In general, a person who is involved with such organizations cannot establish the naturalization requirements of having an attachment to the Constitution and of being well-disposed to the good order and happiness of the United States.

    The fact that a person becomes involved with such an organization within five years after the date of naturalization is prima facie evidence that he or she concealed or willfully misrepresented material evidence that would have prevented the person’s naturalization.

    As a US Citizen that has Derivative Citizenship, this is honestly terrifying. Its one of the reasons I’m too afraid to protest. I don’t want to end up stateless.

    If I was a white US-born Citizen, I might be more willing to protest.

      1. It’s funny they still act like communist parties are a threat in 2025
      2. I wonder if and whenever the Republican party will be marked as one.

      Not joining a terrorist organization or other extremist group for five years is not much of a problem really.

      Most people manage to not join terrorist organizations for their whole life.
