lmao I'd forgotten how libs spent years pretending to care about cultural appropriation but then tripped over themselves to make excuses for a white lady pretending to be indigenous

There's this tacit belief among white liberals that a brief period in the 80s/90s when universities experimented with affirmative action was the but-for cause that denied all of them access to the Ivy League -> Dream Job -> International Celebrity status.

Elizabeth Warren is their spirit animal because she beat the system by lying on her application, something they all desperately wanted to do but were to craven to attempt themselves.

This is literally the only defense I'll make of Warren but saying you have native ancestry because you're 1/128th indigenous is the closest white people get to culture.

I could literally find you Facebook pages with local chuds making fun of her and comparing themselves to warrior chieftains in the same screenshot.

She is literally less native than the average white American. She's the most white.

That lines up with all the girls from my high school that said the same thing and a few of them definitely also used that in college applications.

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
