I loathe dual citizenship.

My dad is a dual citizen of Mexico and the US. Personally I think it should be done away with.

Nothing about China is her business but the $$$$.

Does she vote in U.S. elections?

"When is she changing her citizenship to China, and when
does she ship out of the U.S.?"

The chinese lost face when gu lost gold.

Millions invested in gu, all for naught.

gu may soon be virtually stateless.

She is a citizen of Communist China. She can respond no other way.

It wouldn’t help her if they took exception and punished her even she claimed American citizenship as well (since she hasn’t renounced it)

They only recognize her as a citizen of Communist China. So she understands which side her bread is buttered on.

I don’t know if she has any siblings but I wonder if it ever occurrs to her that if her mom had become pregnant with her in CHYna that its likely she wouldn’t even be alive due to China’s one-child policy. Or two children or whatever the limit was when her mom became pregnant with her.

In Communist China’s eyes, she is already a Chinese citizen since they extended special dispensations for her to become one and compete. But she has not renounced her US Citizenship.

China does not recognize her dual citizenship. It is an asinine concept (dual citizenship)

I thought China does not recognize dual citizenship, did Eileen Gu renounce her US Citizenship yet?

Of course not, she was also fine with China creating a bioweapon in order to kill as many people as possible too

Eileen Gu sounds like a spoiled brat.

Here’s a better example of a “cross-national” Olympian:

I rather enjoy videos of the CCP demolishing Uyghur and Hui mosques, and declaring Islam a “mental disorder,” so I guess this isn’t my business either.

So is our government. Our gov also doesn't care about China stealing our tech, resources and land. Throw in the added feature that our government wants vast amounts of Chinese students here.

Our corporate overlords also love them some Chinese communist as well, from Elon Musk to Tim Cook, nobody loves the Chinese more than our companies.
