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

    Ironic.

    (No offense to OP 😉)

      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.
