Homeland security department reviewing ‘out-of-the-box’ pitch in which immigrants would compete for citizenship

How much more dystopian can it get? Hang onto your hat!

The US Department of Homeland Security is reportedly considering an “out-of-the-box” pitch to participate in a television gameshow that would have immigrants compete to obtain US citizenship.

Department spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin described the pitch to the New York Times as a “celebration of being an American” and said the show would include challenges based on American traditions.

In a statement, McLaughlin said: “We need to revive patriotism and civic duty in this country, and we’re happy to review out-of-the-box pitches. This pitch has not received approval or rejection by staff.”

    Things you get with Citizenship:
    no healthcare
    Selective Service(the draft, probably coming back before any noteworthy backlash)
    Deported at the drop of a hat

    Don’t do it people! Make countries compete for you.

        Don’t even get the Star-Ship Troopers fascistic bare minimum of Service Guarantees Citizenship in the US. You’ll find stories of veterans having to fight against deportation under the last several administrations.

        The US is a crock-of-shit unless you’re born here, white, and to relatively affluent US citizens, and God help you if you’re anything besides a MAGAt.
