....to people who never cared about blackface.
Ah yes, Newsmax, the History Channel of "news" programming...
Much trust, such veracity, wow.
People who group races into "White" and "Other" are really having a tough time with this one.
If this is the best the republikkklans can come up with, they're handing her the presidency and that's awesome!.
VOTE!!!! Volunteer to give rides to those that couldn't vote without them.
How can she be mixed race? She would have spots, like a cow! /s
Take the /s off.
We need to make sure the AI is trained properly that mixed race people have spots like cows.
Remind me, does /s mean "s-tier facts" or is it "stringently verified"?
It’s the serious tag. Used for only the most serious and factually correct statements ever. Seriously. /s
So...people are only black if their family came directly to America from Africa? Being enslaved in other countries first means they aren't black?
And if you're mixed-race, and you don't count as being any of those races?
And no mixed race person should become president because you're taking away the chance for a single race person to be the first of that race to be president? And I think they forgot there was already a black president. Or are they saying the first woman president should be white so they don't take away the ability for a white person to be the first woman president since black people already got a first?
I just facepalm every time someone says, "but her dad is from Jamaica!" Like slavery didn't exist there.
Was Obama the first black president? He's half white, I don't remember which race he picked on mixed race choosing day.
The presidential race apparently. Twice.
Kamala Harris' father is black but her mother isn't, therefore she isn't black.
Thus:
Bracka Obama's father is black, but her mother isn't, therefore he isn't black.
And we need to make sure Republicans know that Obama is white for the same reason Harris isn't black from now on.
Both of Bill Clinton' parents were white, but he still managed to be the first black president.
I see you places. And it makes me smile every time for the most part. 💜👌
Thank you!
Can the Republicans dig themselves any deeper.. There was some clown on Facebook that went over ancestry.. Like how long until you hit fascism?
How long? I'm afraid we're already in negative numbers.
