I use it for helping me learn German but only for explaining things like grammatical rules, concepts, or word uses.

Do not ask it to translate or write something for you. It will make lots of grammatical mistakes. I find that it often misgenders or uses the wrong case for nouns in a sentence.

Then you probably know how prohibitively expensive it can be, especially if you want access to developed nations like in Europe. So this isn’t even an option for the vast majority of American citizens. I know you’re not responding in good faith so I’ll just drop it.

This is also false. You can’t just renounce your citizenship if you want to. To renounce US citizenship you must submit an application and appear in person for affirmation. They will not approve your application if you don’t have a second passport or citizenship somewhere else. They aren’t going to just make stateless people.

This is completely false. US citizens must file taxes and are liable for income taxes no matter where they live.

Edit: I also know this because I recently filed my US taxes from my full-time residence in Germany.

He got community-noted for being wrong. Per usual, it’s only a matter of time before he deletes his post.

“Official capacity” has not been defined yet so we don’t know what the limits are. We will have to wait and see.
