    I'll never let that go. I found it so offensive. My grandfather faced so much discrimination. His cousins got kicked out of a bar because at the time it was illegal to serve "indians" alcohol. My white grandma told me a story about a traffic stop where they got pulled over because racial profiling.

    Fuck her forever for playing that card. And the Warren stans had the audacity to say we were calling her a snake because of some genesis Adam and Eve sexism. You know what my grandfather called liars? Those that "speak with forked tongues."

        Also fwiw, at least in the south a good number of those mythical native ancestors were likely black. Under Jim Crow laws, anyone with any black ancestors was considered black legally under the law. So a whole bunch of mixed race people that could pass instead said they had native ancestry to avoid being subjected to apartheid

          She submitted a plagiarized recipe for Mexican oatmeal, lifted from the New York Times recipe-of-the-week column.

          Edit: "Mexican" in that it was regular, bland-ass oatmeal with canned corn thrown in or some such. It was a veritable nexus of :lmayo: cultural appropriation, while not even being remotely anchored in culinary reality beyond calipered fever dreams about "the ethnics"
