    Man it’s not just Trump. It seems all these right wing nuts really can’t grasp the concept of biracial identities. It just wooshes right past their head and they keep making this “fake black” argument cause she’s not 100% African blood. Which by the way was the thing they were demonizing Obama for having too much of, and demanded his birth certificate.

    They think if you’re born biracial you have to pick one race and stick with it lol

      I mean, obsession with racial purity is definitely not something the far-right is new to, I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that this is how they think normal people discuss race…

      They understand, they just think this is a “dog whistle” instead of overt racism.

      No no, they completely grasp it. They just make the answer whatever they want it to be at the time.
