    The better term might be “abroad”, rather than “overseas”. Because Jus Soli is a concept that exists mostly in the Americas. So you’d better not cross over the Atlantic or Pacific sea for this plan.

    No need to go overseas, almost all countries with birthright citizenship are in the Americas.

    That isn’t the plan you think it is. The US is an outlier in terms of granting birthright citizenship. Most countries - and particularly, most developed countries - do not do this.

    We don’t recognize birthright citizenship. You’ll have to fill in the paperwork like everyone else.

    Americans posting memes against American Imperialism, while simultaneously having an American-Centric worldview about the world in regards to citizenship.

    Ironic.

      tbh I had no idea Europe was so racist. Citizenship based on “blood” sounds like something out of the middle ages.

        Countries that use Jus Soli usually also have Jus Sanguinis. The USA for example. My friend is a US citizen despite not being born there because his mother is a US citizen.

        Not having Jus Sanguinis would be downright horrible. Imagine your mother moves back to her home country and if you want to follow her you have to clear immigration hurdles.

        It’s based on paperwork, not blood.

        You can just turn up, release your spawn and claim it belongs there. We’re not frogs in a pond.

    It’s a good era in which to not have children. Expect a lot of forsaken children.

    Also expect some coerced birthing programs such as the Leibensborn program (which was also an excuse to recruit young women as sex slaves for the Schutzstaffel ) and the offspring were supported by the state and raised by the single mothers.

    This is the program that inspired the Handmaid program in Margaret Atwood’s Gilead, in A Handmaid’s Tale

    And J. D. Vance is super thirsty for it, as is countless other Freedom caucus and MAGA Republican officials.

    ETA That said, it might be a good time to get sterilized and commit to not having kids. (That doesn’t mean you won’t have chances to parent)

      Counterpoint:if all leftists don’t have kids, then conservatives will end up as the entire next generation. Not to like say, definitely have kids, but anti kid propaganda only hurts us

      Literally zero European countries do it. It seems to be in the Americas only, and Chad and Tanzania. The concept that this is some human right apparently only applies to he US.

        Yeah that’s because we had a whole thing of people claiming that people born enslaved weren’t citizens or eligible to vote

          I’m curious what the difference between how America went about giving slaves citizenship versus countries in Europe. There’s the obvious difference of birthright that’s an issue today, just curious why America ended up here and Europe did not.
