Citizenship as "birthplace or residence" is an ideal starter for a nation. America got it in the Constitution during Reconstruction with the 13th and 14th amendments>the 13th removed slave from the free/other/slave framework, leaving only free vs. other>the 14th defined citizenship as born or naturalized w/ the Naturalization Act clarifying "free white persons"That is a birthplace-based, resident-based White citizenship. So they fixed it. They actually fixed citizenship. But then, they almost fuckin' ruin it with the 15th amendment which says>the government can't stop citizens from voting... by race/color/slaveyIt's just plain confusing for the amendment to be worded that way. Rather than simply stating "the government can't stop citizens from voting" it says "by race/color/slavery, specifically" as though the gov could stop voting for any other reason. It's a bad amendment which gives and then takes away citizen voting guarantee while randomly enabling votes by others who aren't as integrated in the society or political system (to the point where you go "so few people would try to use the loophole that it's both low impact but highly narrative-destructive")
>>533806134Maybe the entire concept of citizenship is pointless since non-Whites only use it to access White people/things and claim their identities.
>>533806134you need to work on your basic writing skills because not a single fucking word of that driven makes any senseand the image too
>>533806295Citizenship is still born or residential no matter how fucked up the wording is
>>533806268From the beginning, America as a nation was a container of states which gradually added new states to it>born citizenship was implied and acted upon>residential citizenship of the native-migrants was coded as "free white persons" early onIt's clearly a White citizenship despite the f*ckery surrounding it
>>533806134>gov could stop voting for any other reasonThey do. Inmates can't vote and some states ban people with a felony conviction on record from voting. Keep in mind you're talking about amendments put in motion right after the Civil war. So of course it's all about ex-slaves and citizenship. It was an effort to bring final closure.
>>533806776And yet it's been turned into a visa factory for non-whites. All these words and declarations for what?
>>533807069I remember when slavery was unpaid labor and slave rights was prisoners voting from their cells. Now it's just "an empty state"
>>533807186Assuming those programs are still impacted by the White citizenship
