The internal turmoil of them trying to both call out this "transracial" person as troubled and also consider the pseudo legitimacy of it because it's not any different than transgender people identifying as something contrary to their biology is, quite frankly, hilarious.

[ZandeKongo]

The irony and hypocrisy of this story is laughable.

[cjsmith]

Honestly, please keep bringing it. This shit is pure gold and I need more popcorn.

[xxproeditingmagexx]

People laugh at this but when people identify as trans, everyone gets quiet 😳

Why aren't any of the interviewers pressing her about her other lies? Remember, she stated that she grew up in a teepee, lived in Africa and was whipped as a child because she's black. She said that her father fleed the deep south to avoid being killed by a racist cop. Her ex-husband said that she lied to their son about him. One of her adoptive brothers said that she lied to and brainwashed their other brother.  Her past students have stated that she made her African American studies class curriculum all about her and her experiences as a black woman so she basically cheated her students out of the education that they paid for.

The woman is a pathological liar and these news outlets are giving her the benefit of the doubt by only focusing on her lying about her race. She can give the excuse that she's "transracial" but how does she explain the countless other lies she's told over the years?

She's a liar and a charlatan who switches back and forth between races when it benefits her. There is no such thing as "transracial". This is nothing like transexuals, because for one it's entirely scientifically possible that transexuals brains don't match up with their physical anatomy due to all fetuses being feminine in utero (not possible in the case of race), and transexuals don't switch back and forth for personal gain.

I identify as President of the United States ... so Biden is out now!

Okay, so she can't be recognized as a black woman but it would be okay if she identified as a man. They are both the same identity issue. I can flip flop from man to woman as I see fit and use whatever locker room at the gym depending on how I identify on that day? Or maybe I identify as a 75 year old man does that give me the right to join Silver Sneakers at the YMCA and use the facilities for free? At this point accepting someone as they identify as should be a social issue only. If someone wants anything else all decisions should be based on DNA identity (xy or xx to identify male or female and ancestor tracing to determine race)

Being "transgender" or "transracial" is the exact same thing, and I think both are wrong.

I identify as cheese, call me Mozzarella

That one lady saying it’s appropriating someone else’s culture is exactly right. The issue lies in that transgender individuals are not seen as mockeries, but brave. This is such a weird double standard. You’ll claim a man can be a woman, but don’t consider her to be black? You can’t just pick and choose what’s offensive and what isn’t.

[NutraFit]

Why these days are we expected to support and normalize stupidity?!
Im so tired of the PC dont offend anyone bullshit

[StarfieldRailway]

I identify as king of the British Empire.

There are White Africans and people are in denial about these things.

[isaiahjohnston]

The fact this is rightly looked at as being psychotic, should also show you so is gender swapping.

[socommaster]

In 2021, now she is allowed to do this and liberals would say she is normal 🤣

[nobsinvestornews]

Interesting to see the differences between this and the Bruce Jenner situation.

I was born Indonesian now you cant call me asian because I identify as Caucasian
