> Causes for denaturalization under the 1906 Act included fraud, racial ineligibility and lack of “good moral character.”

And case law concerning this law, Ozawa vs United States:

> The decision goes on to deny that the common population could construe Ozawa, a man of Japanese descent, as white (thus, making him ineligible under section 2169 of the Revised Statutes of the United States).[9] Thus he could not be naturalized, under the current laws, in 1922.

Yeah, the article is the misleading one. Sure bud. Thanks for coming here to defend racism as a basis for citizenship.

Help me see the connection. The government can't denaturalize someone based on racial classifications. Does that mean it can't denaturalize people for any other reason?

You're citing a law based in racism as being perfectly fine to use in the year 2026 because racists previously made it a law.

Under the law you are suggesting is a just and legitimate basis for denaturalization, any non-white person naturalized before 1952 can be denaturalized, as they were committing fraud claiming to be white to be eligible for naturalization at the time.

I don’t have to be super imaginative to extend that to wondering how those people’s children could have inherited citizenship from a noncitizen who committed fraud against the US government.

But we’re all just trying to get back to “law and order” here right? What a stupid person you’d have to be to believe that.
