Wasn’t there a big scandle were these DNA companies were just making shite up?


I could be wrong, but I seem to recall a story where two brothers (maybe twins) were tested using 23&me (or some other variation) and the results came back with two different ancestries

There is no such thing as 1/32nd of anything.

Wonder if she has any relatives that are serial killers.

Shouldn’t she have done the DNA test before she allowed two separate schools to claim she was Native American for diversity purposes (which likely no doubt benefited her career)?

Even Italy, who has the most lax dual citizenship rules on the planet, wouldn’t let you in with a trace ten generations back.

It's pretty safe to assume that if a person's ancestory dates back to Colonial or Antebellum America, there's a pretty decent chance of Native and/or Slave DNA in the woodpile.

Correct. She claimed NA status when she had no right to do so.

.. I know for a fact that I have Chicksaw in me.. My Grandmother was full blooded and dad was half, yet when I did the ancestry DNA it came back not showing any.


My Grandma was half cherokee...family had long black straight hair, but it had been a generation since they lived as natives, we have a few pics of her mom...straight injun
It didn't show in my kid's DNA test either. 2% showed up as middle eastern/Jewish...but genealogy doesn't show any...?

shite is fraud or some folks are passing other people's kids off as their own.

I saw where one of those DNA testing places was tested by someone sending in twins (or was it triplets?) DNA all at different times. All of the tests came back different as if they weren't even related.

I agree with James Woods.

And they talk about white privilege.

A wealthy white woman takes a DNA test to prove she's 1/512 Native American to score minority points. You can't make this shite up.

The diverse Democratic Party is headed by a white man named Beto and a fraction of Native American.

The Boston Globe article sticks some important details way down the article. Since Native American DNA is almost nonexistent for research and comparison purposes, Warren's DNA was compared against samples from Mexico, Peru, and Colombia.

So at best her ancestors were murderous land takers from the South who migrated to North America.

Well, the lefts screaming points followed this report quickly: "She never claimed anything else!" "She never used this info for any advantage..."

Warren claimed minority status for over a decade at Harvard. Why? Who knows, but don't let them get away with saying that she never claimed anything else

10th generation is more like 1/1000, per twitter.

Yeah, the Boston paper just issued the correction to 1/1024.

Which is so insignificant they may as well have said 0.

I was wondering because 2^6 and 2^10 are 64 and 1024 respectively but half of each was being quoted, a generation difference.
