Its the exact same shit they did to Obama. The trick is that McCain and Romney never went on record saying this bullshit. They had a gaggle of C-List news celebrities say it over and over again, while they would play the “I can’t believe someone would say OBAMA ISN’T BLACK that’s crazy who would think that?” game.
But Trump isn’t a politician in the traditional sense. He is the C-List news celebrity who talks shit all day. The GOP doesn’t want the one-eyed Navy Seal who makes serious sounding noises all day running for President. Or the elite business genius who doesn’t care about all our beautiful aborted white babies because he’s too busy counting his (((money))). They literally want to put William F. Buckley in office. But he’s dead, so they’ll settle for the Cheeto Mussolini.
I’m glad someone else remembers this bs. The right wingers attacked Obama in the same way because he was raised by a white single mother in Hawaii and later by an Indonesian step father overseas. Because these idiots don’t have a word for that, they attacked him as a pretender. But let’s be clear, they don’t do ambiguity because complexity loses them voters.
Strangely the right wingers got something almost correct for a change. It’s true that the concept of “race” is both racist and artificial. It’s how you were raised that largely determines your culture. Obama wouldn’t fit in in Africa. True. But he was raised as an American. THAT MEANS HE’S AMERICAN.
The same is true for Harris. Its sad that she’s going to get attacked for being raised by an Indian-American-Jamacian mother in oaktown (which was predominantly black back then) because of stupidity and the great orange puff’s lack of self control

This is my handy guide to determine if someone is American (can be applied to any country):
Born in America = American
Born in a different country and moved to America at young age and spent a considerable amount of time growing up in America = American
Immigrated at an older age to America and have their citizenship = American
Immigrated at an older age to America and do not have their citizenship = Trying to become American
Conservative bloggers thought they’d come up with a super clever code to do antisemitism without getting flagged for it, but it just turned into a big joke.
I looked at the echo symbol “(((___)))” in the Anti Defamation League hate symbol website.
Whatever is inside the triple parenthesis has Jewish added. In this case, the echo means Jewish money.
I think he would be confused regardless. The fact that she’s biracial compounds it. People love to categorize others into boxes they understand. It often results in racism, but it usually results in a kind of obstinate ignorance. There are many people who fundamentally cannot seem to understand that Indians are Asian, even if they’re pretty brown. They also don’t understand that a Jamaican who’s a descendant of slaves is African-American. That someone can be both of these impossible (in their mind) things is just outlandish.
I know a guy who’s black and British, and I have heard him explain how he isn’t African-American so many times. Whatever white person receives the explanation never really believes it and always treats it like it’s a trick. I know someone else who has a seeing eye dog that’s a mutt, and not some movie-groomed golden retriever. Confusion abounds.
I don’t think that he can’t wrap his head around being biracial, I think he’s trying to play on the community’s own racism.
Let’s not kid ourselves here, all racial community’s have their members who shun and reject biracial kids as being part of their community with some cultures having a larger segment of that type of thinking than others.
Nah, he’s a fucking moron, but I don’t think that’s it. He’s trying to use a standard pratice of his of identifying something that others may like about an opponent and attack it as not being true. When that thing is race, it becomes extra fucking ridiculous.
I think theyre angry because many of the Weird Cheeto’s bigoted voters will want clarity on what kind of racial slur they’ll use as they are a discriminating bunch.
No, they really aren’t as far as slurs go. If a person of mixed ethnicity kinda looks black, they get the same ones as people whose parents are both black.
I’ve heard them call people of Indian descent the same slurs that they use for Blacks and Arabs. These are not people who get ambiguity or experience empathy.
He just can’t wrap his head around the idea of someone being biracial, or chooses not to, whatever.

4a. Immigrated at an older age and don’t want to get their citizenship, and are planning to eventually move home = Not American
Man it’s been a long time since I saw this in the wild. Isn’t the “(((___)))” supposed to signify “Jew” in a bad way?

African-American? You mean, like Elon Musk?

Oops, sarcasm missed.
