    When you say “applied in the other direction” - I read that as granting, rather than revoking, citizenship. Which doesn’t really make sense? I assume you mean an evil government revoking citizenship of good people, rather than this proposal for a good government to revoke the citizenship of an evil person.

      Yes. In this case it’s a left wing gov:t pondering removing citizenship for a right wing individual.

      As “good” and “evil” are subjective, in both cases it will be the “good” gov:t revoking the citizenship of a treasonous “evil” person.
