I wonder if the people getting all upset about this were just as vocal when Michael Jackson did it. His attempt to turn himself white? He was a target of ridicule for that. |

Lying about being black isn't a crime. But making up fake hate crimes could be another matter. No evidence whatsoever backing up her claims. "The city is also investigating whether she lied about her ethnicity when she applied to be on the police board. And police on Friday said they were suspending investigations into racial harassment complaints filed by Dolezal, including one from earlier this year in which she said she received hate mail at her office." www.startribune.com/naacp-chapter-president-questioned-about-her-racial-identity/307117741/ |

I think it's more a case of crazy. She invented a black father and black biological siblings didn't she. And then of course people are erroneously comparing this to transderism. It's exactly like transderism. If someone can magically change their gender simply by saying so, it logically follows someone should be allowed to magically change their race/ethnicity just by saying so. Right? Hey, it's a brave new world. Yesterday I was a bald eagle. Later on today I might be Chinese, and maybe tomorrow I will be an American-Indian or African-American. Then I can collect some affirmative action benefits meant for minorities. It''s not like transgenderism. Read up a little on the subject of transgenderism, gender, sex. Race is a social construct. Gender isn't (although gender roles are.) She hasn't changed her gender, our genders are what they are (although gender itself is fairly fluid. Our culture has only two gender identities. Other cultures have / have had more. She has had sex reassignment surgery so her body more closely aligns with her gender. Of course the issue is rather complex, far from as as black and white as you seem to think it is (no pun intended.) Try for once to avoid making yourself look like an idiot. Read up on the topic instead from educated resources instead of Fox News articles. |

What lala just said. Apart from the "voice of the left" bit, obviously. The fraud bit is spot on regardless.

it's very difficult being a leftie. A Rightie can just look at it and go "that's f*cking ridiculous" and then go back to kicking homeless people. Lefties have to analyse the thing to death before wetting themselves. They have my sympathy, although apparently I don't have any, so they can have my best imitiation of sympathy, |

Most of those articles are actually quite sensible and measured. Mids is simply frotting himself silly, as usual.

Partial list (the list is growing) of her delusions. 1. She identified a man as her father who wasn't. 2. She said her family was bi-racial but wasn't. 3. She said she lived in South Africa for a time but has never set foot in the continent. 4. She identified her adopted African American brother as her biological son. 5. She claims she was abuse by a stepfather even though her parents have never divorced. 6. She claims she was beaten by an African "baboon whip" despite accounts to the contrary. 7. She claims she was born in a tepee and grew up hunting with bows and arrows. This site doesn't even know what the hell a "baboon whip" is. Apparently they are another false invention of hers.

"Race is a social construct."
So there is no such thing as different skin colors,,,skin color is a social construct? Everybody on the planet has the same facial and body characteristics,,,differences in eyes, noses, etc. don't exist,,,they are just a social construct?

"It''s not like transgenderism." Tell her that. She believes it's exactly like transgenderism. "Friday night, she tweeted, “I am very happy to see more people joining us #TransracialLivesMatter #WrongSkin.” "She also tweeted a picture of herself next to a picture of Caitlyn Jenner, with the caption “who are you to decide what is right for me?” www.democraticunderground.com/10026829938The lefties can't wiggle their way out of this, no matter how hard they try. If a person can magically change their gender simply by saying so, people should be able to magically change their race simply by saying so. |

If a person can magically change their gender simply by saying so, people should be able to magically change their race simply by saying so. She can believe it's exactly like transgenderism all she likes. She's wrong. (That's a spoof account by the way.) The parameters of gender identity are socially constructed. We are fully aware of the concept of "female brains" and "male brains" and that the gender of one's brain may differ from the biological sex one is assigned at birth. Leading to transgenderism. Now whether one's identity depends on one's gender or one's sex is a whole other debate. For most woman they are the same so its a moot point. If they differ which takes priority? Now there is no such thing as a racially constructed brain. No "racial brain identity" that differs to one's physicality. Race is solely an appearance thing. It has absolutely no impact on one's behaviour. At all. In the slightest. "Trans racialism" is jus a fancy word for racism, then belief that one's race is a primary (or otherwise) determinant of behaviour. It's not "wiggling" it's something that you haven't bothered to try and read up on or understand. Also there is nothing right or left about transgenderism. The medical community isn't split along political lines. If you want to help yourself out start with learning to distinguish between GENDER and BILOGOCIAL SEX. You are using them interchangeably. That isn't the case. |
