And I always will, god help me. Renouncing citizenship from the US is like loudly breaking up with a privileged abuser, liable to draw their ire and excite further persecution. No, I just emigrated to a country with a dual taxation treaty and quietly stopped paying them taxes. It is the worst vengeance I can safely enact on the villain.

UK. Being a dual citizen by birth is a bit like having one foot in the grave, and another foot in the toilet. Still, beats dropping my kid off at a school with active shooter drills.
