It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Don't forget Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Mariana Islands.
If you're born in ~~Guam~~ American Samoa, to two US Citizens, you don't automatically become a citizen.
You have to apply to become one.
At the nearest embassy.
In New Zealand.
Death to America.
Edited: still, death to America.
That doesn't appear to be the case.
He may have been thinking of American Samoa
Yeah, you don't get automatic citizenship in American Samoa, but if you're born to American parents anywhere, you're a citizen, you just have to file a CRBA, which you can do via the internet, mail, whatever. It is bullshit that it costs $100
Sorry, you're right, I was thinking of American Samoa. I shouldn't conflate them.
Even if jus solis didn't apply, if you are born to an American citizen literally anywhere, you're automatically an American citizen. Of course you do kinda have to be registered at some point.
