Being stateless is one of the worst things you can be in the world, and the UK just passed a law letting the government quietly strip citizenship from anyone. The test case was a young British woman who got radicalized by the Wahhabis. She was of Bangledeshi descent but was born in the UK and had no ties to Bangledesh, but that was enough for the UK to strip her of her statehood, leaving her a stateless person. Now they've formalized the process and can do it to anyone they choose, essentially rendering null any pretense of civil rights.

    Denmark has something similar, although at the time of writing they can only do it to naturalized citizens. If the minister of integration thinks you have done an extremism, an Islamic one to be more precise, they'll take your citizenship away without trial and notify you through the government's electronic mail system.

    If you think they did so illegally (which they didn't, they made the law to give themselves plenty of leeway) you have to pay for bringing a civil suit against the government.

        They'll do this shit but liberals absolutely fly off the wall of you mention the concept of "re-education" even in good faith.
