It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
Internalised racism and white supremacy maybe
if she had left it there, unusual eye colors are neat. but she just had to keep going

When the global empire rewards people for a physical appearance that aligns with the Supremacist Ideal, it isn't unreasonable for a parent to think "Wow! My kid really dodged a bullet, by looking like someone the Aristocracy will not actively seek to exterminate."
Its an instinctual survivalist response. I wouldn't want my kid targeted for ethnic cleansing either.
Was about to comment this, it's a response to internalized oppression and white suprememcy, it's a good thing that she was questioning those thoughts about her baby.
The article makes it sound like she had a Principal Skinner moment.
"Have I internalized white supremacist self-hating sentiment?"
"No, my child will be an Aryan ubermensch."
That's fair, the phrasing in the article is pretty weird.
