Summary
Asian American groups are preparing for potential deportations of undocumented Chinese nationals, particularly military-age men, under Trump’s proposed immigration policies.
Sources indicate Chinese nationals may be prioritized due to alleged national security concerns, reflecting broader anti-China sentiment.
Community organizations are creating multilingual resources, coordinating legal support, and educating families on their rights.
Trump’s rhetoric ties Chinese immigrants to fears of espionage, intensifying anxieties.
Advocates highlight the historical targeting of minority groups during national security crises and warn of significant impacts on vulnerable communities, urging solidarity and swift action.
Make sure you have your birth certificate with you.
I got citizenship derived from my mom’s naturalization while I was under 18. I’m gonna make copies of the document and photo backups just in case. But I’m afraid this orange dickhead is gonna attempt mass-denaturalization by making up bogus “CCP Spy” accusations.
You have derivative citizenship? I mean, you’ll probably be fine, but you’re in a riskier category than a natural-born citizen of natural-born-citizen parents. The country is crazy right now. Likely most or all the worst-case scenarios won’t occur. But you’re slightly more exposed than others. That being said, if they’re coming for you, things will have become so fucked in the US and world more generally that it wouldn’t really matter where you are.
When they come around, tell them you hate LGBTQ people, Black people, etc. That may protect you short-term.
I’m in Philly.

PA House is Dem by 1 seat majority
Deep blue city
I hope I’m fine.
I’m not gonna cosplay a maga just to avoid getting raided by ICE
I’m gonna pretend to be apolitical.
If I’m ever pressured to reveal who I voted for (as in under duress) I’m gonna claim I voted third party because I was undecided. (I voted Harris, but who is gonna know lol, fourty-something percent of Asians Americans reportedly voted trump IIRC).
Forty percent of asian Americans who voted.
