This tweet from September 5th illustrates the weaponization of the passport issuance apparatus in Belarus to prevent people from being able to travel, move, or escape. 👇 Passport issuance by nation-states is a highly centralized exercise of power over human freedom of movement. Each country that issues you a passport is an entity that can give you (general) permission to travel. More countries = less chance you don’t have permission. #multiplecitizenship #passport #freedomofmovement

“Everyone wanna be a ‘global mobility advisor’ but nobody wanna read no statutes, regulations and case law.” - Ronnie Coleman, 8-time Mr. Olympia and world renown citizenship and mobility attorney.

If someone were to refer to buying a house as “collecting bathrooms”, you’d likely say: “You are collecting houses, and part of the houses are the bathrooms that come with them.” But don’t forget the: - living room (core residency right) - bedrooms (satellite residency rights) - backyard (highest right of entry) - kitchen (springboarding benefits) - deed (ability to pass citizenship to heirs) …and many other parts of the property acquisition. Citizenship> passport

Once upon a time, you could travel without permission from the country you are from.

More convenient travel…or less monitoring from #BigBrother. What matters more to you? “Customs and Border Protection [CBP] "checks all GE members against major law enforcement databases every 24 hours," the report says.”

Citizenships #2 and #3 are for safety, lifestyle, and freedom. Citizenship #4 is for extra assurance. Beyond that is hobby.

5 things that your lawyer will love and make want to work with you again and again: 1. Send him/her all documents as scanned PDFs. 2. If emailing to ask for a call, write a line about what you want to discuss. 3. Send one email with all the info rather than 4 emails in a row within 40 minutes (for example). 4. Leave a public review if you loved your lawyer’s work for you (this is priceless for law firms). 5. Communicate directly if you are unsatisfied or uncomfortable with something. #lawyer #lawyerclient #professionalrelationships

Dual citizenship provides your first possibility, now or later, to entirely decouple from a nation-state government. That's why one citizenship to two is Peter Thiel's zero to one in the realm of freedom from sovereign coercion.

ocument Dependence in a Nutshell If you don't jump through the bureaucratic hoops properly, you can't get the right ID. If you don't have the right ID, you can't get the right document. If you don't have the right document, you can't get the visa, residence or citizenship. If you can't get the visa, residence or citizenship, your freedom of movement is impaired. #freedomofmovement #documentdependence

I said what I said. #watches #omega

National Visa Center website = the worst.

In 2023, self-sovereignty doesn't mean you're not subject to state sovereign law. It means you've arranged your life in a way to be able to opt-out of a particular nation-state's laws when it suits you. #dualcitizenship
