Denaturalize = strip Americans of their legal citizenship
I was a bit drunk, it's bull, (see comments), but it's funny.
In a culinary context it could also mean cooking the protein, by heat, acid, dunno.
It's Trump, after all. Don't rule it out just because it's ridiculous.
Isn't that called denaturing, not denaturalizing?
Yes lol
Found the biochemist.
lol, maybe I WAS drunk 😂
Again, it won't stop with immigrants. Maybe LGBTQ will be next, then anyone who displeases the Regime.
They'll claim that because someone is LGBTQ+, their birth certificate is fraudulent and that counts as enough evidence for denaturalization.
This is the exact reason why I want to blow my brains out. I just came out as trans :(
Never blow your own brains out for something that's someone else's fault.
Don't do it friend, there are still plenty of us here who support you!
Wrong target. If you have to shoot, shoot at your aggressor, not at yourself.
No >:c
Muslims will be first on Steven Miller's list
Wait, wait, wait. Naturalized citizens are legal citizens. I’m pretty sure that they and every thumb I argue with on Nextdoor has told me that all of this is just about enforcing laws. Goodness gracious, I’m starting to suspect that they are lying.
Stephen Miller is an unabashed racist, white supremacist, and fascist who has turned his bigotry into national policy. He is a the puppeteer behind the entirety of Trump's immigration policies. When this is over, he should be shot.
Why wait until it's over?
Indeed, they were always lying, about nearly everything. Now these assholes have their masks off - see "JD" "Vance" saying that people no longer have to apologize for being white (as if that was ever a thing).
Lying or stupid, take your pick
We need to denaturalize every last MAGA voter when this is over - take away their ability to pull this shit here ever again.
And grandfather them out. Can't be a US citizen if your father or grandfather had their citizenship taken.
It's barbarism or socialism. Choose wisely.
Maybe he wants to denaturalize Melania for not holding his hand.
Though this idea definitely has Stephen Miller's grubby hands all over it.
We have a goal! We want to denaturalize ALL the
redactedpeople!They can only do this with a credible claim legally. However, we know how much that word does not matter to this current regime…
SCOTUS has been making everything the assholes do credible, or delaying any ruling against it until they’re finished.
His Mom isn’t American
After Trump send Miller to Belarus.
You first, piggy.
Making quotas on people’s lives is stupid.
But if you want do denaturalize someone for lying on the application you can start with Elon.
So, a quota for doing an illegal act?
Obviously, the end goal is to ensure that nobody has any rights, just temporary privileges which can easily be stripped at the dictator's whim. That way everyone is always afraid to stand up to them or they'll get locked up, have their citizenship stripped, etc.
Noooo bigmachole got banned? Mods are you aware it's satire?
...and from this source:
This could be the most Anti-American bullshit yet
Looks like it is time for the Red Scare 2.0! Anyone who is woke is up for deportation. Better not be woke! Definitely don't ask us what woke is because that is also grounds for deportation.
Let's de-naturalize the entire Epstein class.
Time to denaturalize billionaires
They won't stop until they kill me. Not that that would stop the inevitable.
They cant escape the karma that is coming to cleanse humanity once again.
Ofc. Fascism is just internal imperialism. Following in the footsteps of biden and every other president.
I am okay with illegal immigrants being turned away as we have no idea about their criminal history and ignoring them allows drug dealers and gangs to sneak through.
But this is too far. Taking away the citizenship of those who have worked to legally become American for no reason but to hit a quota is not okay.
I'd say that most of the immigration measures taken so far are really far from okay
This sentence makes no sense. "Turned away" implies that they are rejected at the border. If they're rejected at the border, at no point are they illegal immigrants, they're just people who want to pass the border for whatever reason. The only way they can become illegal immigrants is if they pass the border and are not turned away at the border.
This is Fox News propaganda. Drug dealers and gang members aren't taking their passports to a checkpoint and asking to please be admitted. If they're "sneaking through", it's because the US has one of the largest borders in the world, and it's effectively impossible to police all 9000 km of border, and it's obviously also unrealistic to build a secure wall covering all 9000 km.
This post exhibits the sort of well meaning, small thinking, gently heeled bias that greases the cogs of fascists.
