CNN was referring to her as African-American today. I guess I must've missed the part when Jamaica and India became a part of Africa, silly me.

Her Wikepedia page also calls her the first African American to be a Party's running mate. They are blatantly lying about her origins

I don't think it's an intentional lie, as the left got themselves into a dead end with their fear of words. A brown skinned person can be of sufficiently dark skin tone to be considered or appear "black". But not every person that is black is African. They can't just say black, though, because that maximum raycis. So they end up substituting it with African American. It's funny because they often refer to black nationals of England or France from the colonies as African Americans.

That's where fear of words get you - confusion, and inability to communicate properly.

Oh fuck off with that shit. I agree with most of what you're saying.

But the simple fact of the matter is anyone who's actively waging the kind of linguistic warfare you're talking about is a conscious and aware entity. they are intelligent they are probably well educated.

And they are absolutely aware of what they are trying to do. And they take pride in the inverted values they worship.

There are certainly useful idiots.

But the ones teaching them are simply evil.

It's about time we fucking got that. They are unlimited wells of arrogant hatred and resentment and that is the only reason they are able to step over one hundred million dead bodies and claim that their ideas will work this time.

There is nothing unintentional about their absolute toxicity. the venerate it and thrive in it.

Oh I agree with you. I don't think it's unintentional in the long term. It very much is a matter of employing useful idiots, but they still operate within the confines they themselves created, which leads to semantic acrobatics. Sure, it allows them to be vague enough to promote their shitty agenda, and it's jarring to anyone with more than 2 neurons in their head to rub together.

She's half Indian half Jamaica. Last time I checked, neither is in Africa!
