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.
My bff and her brother were born here, but I'm extremely worried for them. A couple years ago DARPA approached her brother for the work he did on drone technology in college. I know her parents cut ties with their families in China when they moved here several decades ago, but that doesn't seem like enough to keep them from being harassed at minimum.
Depends on how Americanized you are and how racist your area is.
I was curious so when I was in high school I once asked my classmates if they hear an accent when I speak, they said they don't hear an accent. I guess I pass? 🤷♂️
I'm in Philly, it should be fine. (I hope)
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.
I'm in Philly.
Governor is Dem
PA House is Dem by 1 seat majority
Deep blue city
I hope I'm fine.
I'm not gonna cosplay a maga just to avoid getting raided by ICE
I'm gonna pretend to be apolitical.
If I'm ever pressured to reveal who I voted for (as in under duress) I'm gonna claim I voted third party because I was undecided. (I voted Harris, but who is gonna know lol, fourty-something percent of Asians Americans reportedly voted trump IIRC).
Forty percent of asian Americans who voted.
You have derivative citizenship? I mean, you'll probably be fine, but you're in a riskier category than a natural-born citizen of natural-born-citizen parents. The country is crazy right now. Likely most or all the worst-case scenarios won't occur. But you're slightly more exposed than others. That being said, if they're coming for you, things will have become so fucked in the US and world more generally that it wouldn't really matter where you are.
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.
