It sounds like, essentially what you’re saying, I think. That if your mother lied or omitted information that would have led to a denial of her citizenship approval, and this is later discovered she will have her citizenship revoked, and you would also lose citizenship. Essentially because it would be considered that she committed fraud to obtain citizenship, and you by extension would be a benefactor of her fraud even if you were unaware of it.

However,it also sounds like if her citizenship is revoked for other reasons not involving fraudulent statements and covering up a past that would have barred her from citizenship, you will keep your citizenship providing you are in the US when hers is revoked.

That’s my very rough reading of it, and yeah, it’s a bunch of fucking legalese. It’s honestly frustrating that laws like this don’t have a “simple english wikipedia” equivalent to explain it to non-lawyers.

Also… it should be noted that laws seemingly mean nothing with respect to the current US regime and how they manage citizenship revocation.

I feel like in those places a good raincoat actually makes more sense than an umbrella.

Here in the Pacific Northwest we don’t use umbrellas. We are practically amphibious.

yeah but what if

then the labor class better fucking get their ass in gear and start fighting for their rights again.

I don’t usually say this but honestly if you are working at Oracle in 2025:

You deserve this. You’re working for pure evil. Be thankful you can now maybe get a job that doesn’t involve destroying humanity and democracy.

You know what unconditional surrender will mean.

Trump always chickens out? That’s what it means, right? After bankrupting our military and sending countless US soldiers to their deaths in a mire of a war that will make Vietnam look like a cakewalk, he will just walk away with no gains pretending like he won?

I’m gonna go out on a limb and say there’s literally hundreds of way more important issues that need to be addressed in the US than the waste of printing pennies. Like, it’s such a drop in the bucket compared to underfunded healthcare, rampant homelessness, mental health crises, broken education system, rising pollution, bomb trains, aging and failing infrastructure, bridges about to collapse, water treatment plants failing, a patchwork power grid that was built for the 19th century, dams about to collapse, resurgence of major diseases due to anti-vaccine hysteria, intense levels of propaganda via unregulated social media…

Anyway, I could keep going, so seriously, you’re joking right? The waste produced from pennies is literally a drop of water in an ocean of fucking problems that are way more massive , way more impactful, and overall just way more important. If stopping minting pennies meant we could fund Medicare For All for the next fifty years I might give a shit, but it didn’t and even with a better congress, supreme court, and President it still wouldn’t have saved enough money to fund anything significant.

So I genuinely don’t give one flying fuck about stopping minting pennies or if they had kept minting them. It makes no material difference in my daily fucking life whereas ICE being the world’s third most well funded military means jackbooted fucking thugs are roaming my streets looking to black bag my neighbors. I just can’t, the idea that the penny thing can be counted as “a good thing” in the face of the tsunami of bad shit is a joke.

Don’t slander Megamind like this.

This statement could apply to every second of every minute of every hour of every day of both Trump presidencies.

First as tragedy, then as farce.

Probably more likely that they are against it as long as they can be targeted. They want to wait until they are in charge politically and can control it, and then they’ll be behind it so they can target their perceived enemies.

Pretty much how it went here in the USA. All the shit the right wing used to scream and rail against is everything they’re instituting now that they feel relatively sure they won’t have to let go of the power in the future. Once they get their tentacles in, they’ll turn on a dime and support it.

This is fucking amazing. I’m gonna go out and get a weed vape right now! I mean, for hosting a website on, yeah, that’s why, sure, let’s go with that.

Only mildly sarcastic, but even if you’re trying to be careful, you reveal a lot about yourself by making comments at all or interacting with a community at all. Your interests, your writing style, your browser footprint, etc. etc. It’s very difficult to not be truly unique if someone out there is purposefully tracking you as an individual. Depending on where the instance is hosted, they may be required to keep server logs and may further be required to divulge those to police for lawful investigations. “Lawful” obviously can vary widely in interpretation, depending on local corruption levels. I know that if I was of interest in an investigation it would not be hard at all to link me to my real identity, and I just sort of live with that.

As long as they get to swap it out with the gauntlet hand when appropriate. Boomstick not included but can be bought in the sporting goods section of S-Mart. Groovy.

During that night’s concert, Black led the crowd in a rendition of “Happy Birthday,” while their friend, Mike Bray, dressed in a metal robot costume (a bit for the D’s song “The Metal”), held out a cake filled with candles. When Black told Gass to make a wish, Gass quipped, “Don’t miss Trump next time.”

The line got laughs, and the show moved along. But later that night, as Gass was celebrating in his hotel room, he started to realize his improvised one-liner was stoking political outrage. An array of right-wing media figures lashed out; Elon Musk called Gass’ comments “contemptible.” Charlie Kirk tweeted, “These people are more twisted and vile than we realized,” and an Australian politician even demanded Tenacious D be deported.

That night, Jack quit the band… but now they’re back together… La la la la

He was more than mean, he threw Kyle Gass under the bus so he could keep his movie deals and appear more neutral.

Kyle only said what half the fucking planet was thinking, and even more people feel that same sentiment Kyle expressed today than ever.

Trump is literally the number one threat to world peace, Kyle expressed a very valid sentiment and Jack bailed on the D to please the MAGA fucking freakshow.

We live in a nightmare dystopian hellscape where rights are made up and the laws don’t matter.

Fuck ain’t that the truth.

If I was going to do something illegal/disruptive enough to attract the attention of police, I simply would not attach my personal email to it.

Fair, but let’s be real, protesting the Copy City in Atlanta shouldn’t be something that captures police attention since it’s well within free speech rights. Literally, as it says in the article:

404 Media is not publishing the person’s name because they don’t appear to have been charged with a crime, according to searches of court databases.

This is merely an intimidation campaign against people who have valid concerns with the Cop City being built outside of Atlanta.

Broadly, members were protesting the building of a large police training center next to the Intrenchment Creek Park in Atlanta, and actions also included camping in the forest and lawsuits. Charges against more than 60 people have since been dropped.

The blog in question documents protest events that have happened, including ones that are law breaking. There is no proof that the person who runs the blog has any direct involvement with the events they cover, despite their political stripe supporting the same goal of dropping the contract to stop the funding and building of Cop City in the forest outside of Atlanta. Calling people to action to protest is not the same as calling them to commit crimes in protest.

Because while I agree with you, we need to be clear here. Legal protest and coverage of protest (including coverage of crimes done by individuals at a protest) are not crimes nor should those acts alone be enough to get the FBI on your ass.
