You can’t really be stateless so I presume they had or got some other citizenship first.
You can but your life becomes one giant hell.
If you don’t have dual citizenship like I had, your best bet is to move somewhere you like, stay there for a while as a resident, then apply for citizenship there. Then depending on your destination country, that either makes you dual-citizen and you have to renounced your US citizenship explicitely, or you have dual-citizenship for that country but not for the US or vice-versa, or your US citizenship instantly becomes invalid. In all cases, if you want to stop being American, Uncle Sam will make you cough up a bunch of money. Because the US is a country of racketeers.
You absolutely CAN be stateless, and one of the primary drivers is being a refugee, amongst other things. But point taken regarding a unitedstatesian becoming stateless - it’s unlikely to have unfolded that way in this case.
Let me rephrase. It’s not advisable to be stateless when you’re trying to emigrate voluntarily.
