"Native American" or "native American"? Not the same.

White privilege pays better than slave reparations.

Because those white people would get attacked.

A micro example would be Hollywood and the comic industry.. black people are allowed to portray any previous white character. But, white people aren't allowed to portray any previous black characters.

White people claiming they to be black wouldn't get msm support. They wouldn't even get law enforcement protection when the woke mob literally comes after them.

Technically and legally, I probably could.

I mean, my DNA profile shows me to be like 60% Irish and another 30% "broadly northwestern European"... but it also says I'm 2% Sardinian, 2% eastern European and 2% Nigerian...

By those tangible statistics, I should be able to consider myself black.

We all just recently saw on national news, a man, born with and still attached to a penis, claim to be a woman and win a women's college swimming national championship. He is zero percent woman and it's allowed, so my 2% Nigerian assuredly makes me a card carrying brotha. Also, this 2% explains why I never received any "white privilege" at any point in my life. It all makes perfect sense.

Why is Barry not ‘half-white’?

We live in a time replete with imponderables…

What would stop say a white guy from filing his business as an MBE business and claim to be black?


So a month or so ago, I received an email from Ezcater, a online service we use to secure catering orders, saying they were now going to promote and highlight minority owed businesses. This white man is now a part native, black, Hispanic woman. I will identify as whatever I want. frick’m Everyone should do the same which will eventually end this shite.

Serious question, if you were given the opportunity to relive your life as another race, would you?

If gender can’t be defined, then how can race?

Because you still wouldn't be "politically Black"

Like how there's CRT, but it only applies to certain (politically Black) minorities. Hispanics, Asians, etc are considered by CRT standards as "white adjacent".
