This is truly entertaining to watch.
The white NAACP leader who misrepresented herself as black reportedly said as she organized groups during the Black Lives Matter movement that only black people should be directing and leading the protests.
In an interview with Anderson Cooper, activist and writer Marc Lamont Hill said he knew Rachel Dolezal, and heard her state that only black people should lead the movement that arose in the wake of repeated incidents of police brutality against black individuals starting late last year.
So Bruce Jenner can claim to be a woman with man parts and be praised for his courage….so it should be no problem to accept the trans-racial.
This woman will be praised for her trans-racial courage as well?
I’m not seeing the same liberal praise.
Can’t we all say we are a little African American inside like Caitlyn Jenner says he is a woman inside?
Surely even you can see the obvious difference, Kevin. Caitlyn Jenner isn’t trying to deceive people, for starters. Her transition is in response to a condition called gender dysphoria syndrome. It’s a real thing. She didn’t choose it.
This other yahoo has been flat out lying to people about who she is for reasons unknown.
Scott,
I see I need to get to the political correctness meetings to stay updated on all these trip wire distinctions. This discussion is going to be fun.
1.) Caitlyn is not trying to deceive people? Saying you are a female, while still having a penis, is not deception in advertising?
2.) What if “racial confusion syndrome” proves to be a “real” condition at some point? Wouldn’t your reaction be insensitive? This lady who was born white, really want to be black, she didn’t choose it either. Might be a condition generated by all her white guilt…white guilt over racism is no longer legitimate?
I really like the idea of “racial confusion syndrome”. If we all felt a little bit African American inside, wouldn’t that bridge the perceived racial gaps in the liberal lexicon? Its wrong for white people to immerse in African american culture to the point where they feel a part of the “team”? Or would that be problematic because white people would take advantage of special privileges enjoyed by minority groups in our society?
I have all kinds of further questions on this. There is a stunning lack of logic and reason on this issue in the liberal mindset.
But then again, who really gives a shit when there is so much more going on in the world?
Pat,
That would be “micro-aggression” and get you hauled in front of liberal tribunals on some college campuses for insensitivity.
I’m concerned about the feelings of this poor black woman callously trapped in a white woman’s body.
I’m more concerned about individuals who get hung up on things that really don’t matter.
Can the real slim shady please stand up! Oh wait, that’s just Kevin letting his real slimy racism stand out. “Perceived racial gaps in the liberal lexicon”. There is nothing perceived about racism. An unwillingness to acknowledge that racism exists and comes in many forms is disturbing. FBI statistics report 6222 reported hate crimes. 46.9% of those crimes were racially motivated. These statistics are real. These facts are real. Racism exists and isn’t just some “perceived liberal” idea. Socio/economic inequality exists and can be measured by race. Ignorance is the fuel that keeps racism and racial gaps burning. Once again, another sign of Kevin’s Christianity being in name only. Sad, really sad.
Jade,
If everyone feels they are African American inside, wouldn’t that eliminate racism? Everyone could feel part of the same team .
Why is this woman not being praised on the “courage” level of Bruce Jenner?
Instead she is being ripped for trying to join the exclusive club. Her courage in shedding her God given skin color not being applauded like those shedding their God given gender.
Wouldn’t the racism here be coming from the liberal side by not letting this girl be African American on the inside? The same ideology who praises Bruce Jenner for being a woman on inside, even though he is a man on outside.
Taking someone’s struggle with a lifelong condition and twisting it to make some unrelated (and half-assed) political point is pretty low. Caitlyn Jenner’s situation is not “ideological” and has no place in your exploration of the kook who lied to everyone about her ethnicity.
I’m concerned about the feelings of this poor black woman callously trapped in a white woman’s body.
No you’re not. You’re only concern is acting like a dick. You, and everyone else, knows it.
Speaking of dicks… I have always thought that I was black from the waist down.
Scott,
Blurring and distorting what the difference between a man and woman is, physically, is not ideological?
Duly noted in the political correctness handbook.
Just to clarify.
One can have a penis and declare themselves a woman.
One cannot have tinted white skin and declare themselves black?
So all of you excoriated Bill Clinton when he declared he was the first black president? I remember he was met with praise and adoration for being so brave by liberals everywhere.
So no white person can ever adopt the qualities/culture of an African American and identify as such unless you are liberal like Clinton?
But African Americans can be identified as “white” by other African Americans under more insulting euphuisms such as “uncle Tom”, which victimize David Clarke, Ben Carson, and Colin Powell from time to time.
Judging by reaction here, liberals do not want to discuss all these trip wires and conflicts. I get the feeling simple conversation of these subjects is verboten except for the confusing tangled trip wire liberal point of view.
Disappointing.
Kevin, if you want to identify as an African American, I would whole heartily support you.
Pat,
Really?
I 100 percent identify with and support Sherriff David Clarke!
On the inside, I embrace a lot of what Clarke stands for.
Kevin,
I really do support you deciding to be African American! Congratulations on being the first African American Dairy Queen owner in Kewaskum. What will your kwanzaa special be next Jan. 1st?
I support an individuals right to be what they want. That doesn’t necessarily give them a pass on the consiquences that go along with that right if used inappropriately to the detriment of themselves or others.
I support you acting like a dick. I don’t necessarily agree with you acting like a dick, but I believe you have the right to be as big of a dick as you want. That’s what is great about America. Everyone has the right to be wrong.
I knew there was something I liked about Kevin… He’s a black woman on the inside. We should have a coming out party at the Kewaskum DQ on Saturday at 12 noon. Please come in black face and dress in drag. Don’t forget the afro wig and black balloons.
Pat,
My identification with David Clarke does not support a Kwanzaa holiday founded by a Marxist felon that viciously tortured women. My “inner David Clarke” has much more respect for women.
I do agree with the consequnece statement you made.
However, what really fascinates me is: Liberals celebrating Bruce Jenner, ignoring the social consequences for that strange behavior. But then ripping this woman, and not celebrating her bold and courageous behavior….like liberals did when Bill Clinton said he was the first black president.
Since only some white people are allowed to claim to be black, what is the criteria?
In Oct. 1998 Toni Morrison wrote a commentary for the New Yorker magazine in which she made the “first black president” reference. President Clinton never said it. It’s just more rhetoric repeated by another ditto head. Kevin… Really?

Kevin,
I don’t know. I can’t answer for liberals. I refuse to bang my head against the wall trying to figure it out, just as I refuse to bang my head against the wall trying to figure out what conservatives celebrate that I may or may not agree with. To me, those are all small potatoes in life.
Jade,
At the risk of being accused of “twisting” facts to correct your error:

Pat,
No one knows the answer. We are all seem to be at the hands of the perpetual offended and political correctness police destroying the first amendment.
Kevin,
In April, 2014 a mere 16 years after the “first black president” comment was made by Toni Morrison, President Clinton, while appearing on Jimmy Kimmel’s late night comedy show, joking stated “I loved BEING CALLED the first black president”… “But Barack Obama really is, he deserves it.” As stated President Clinton never “declared he was the first black president” nor did President Clinton say “he was the first black president”. So yes, Kevin, you are being accused of twisting the facts because as proven that is what you have done.
Jade,
In that exchange, you can tell Clinton easily believed that while he was president…that’s why it was so funny.
Kevin… Really? Now you can read minds and tell what people believe.
Based on the exchange, you can tell Clinton believed the idea before Obama was president.
Some fraud lies to people…because THE GAYS. Somehow.
You guys are too much.
Kevin,
I will give you this… In your Never Never Land President Clinton was the first black president and Captain Hook was his V.P.
Watched the Rachel Dolezal interview. This gives new meaning to “once you go black you never go back”. She should have been Clinton’s intern.
