I found this [0] that the logic followed is a citizenship generally has to be voluntarily resigned but several actions can make you "accidentally voluntarily resign" it so to speak. It's strange to me Biden would do this especially since we aren't in open war with China but every day I wake up this world gets more strange. It does suggest certain crimes must be done with the intent to lose your citizenship as you suggest which makes Biden's action even more dangerous.

I did not find anything there that can make one "accidentally voluntarily resign".

>"It's strange to me Biden would do this"

I might have skipped it but where / when did Biden specifically threaten stripping citizenship. The search does not confirm such threats have been made.

By forcing Chinese-Americans in particular (as in Chinese, who also hold American citizenship) to choose between their work or their citizenship he is defacto threatening to strip their US citizenship. Dual citizens have basically been handed a choice: give up your US citizenship to continue working in your field or find work in the US.

Well sorry it is totally different. As US citizens they must follow the laws of the US. Break the law and go to jail. If they do not want to go to jail they must stop working in China. Alternatively they can tell the US to go fuck itself and renounce their US citizenship. But they have to do it explicitly. The US will not strip their citizenship on their own.
