Everything You Need To Know About Transracial Hero Rachel Dolezal
Breitbart ^ | 12 June 15 | Ben Shapiro

Posted on 06/13/2015 7:43:52 AM PDT by Drew68

On Friday, after a long news week, the story of Rachel Dolezal hit the press, proving once again that God loves us and wants us to be happy.

Just last week the President of the United States congratulated Bruce Jenner on his courageous decision to pretend to be a woman, and the entire left bursting into spasms of ecstasy over a collectively insane decision to ratify the notion that men can magically become women. Today, the entire left is struggling to explain how a white woman who identifies herself as black is not, in fact, black.

Here’s the basic story: Rachel Dolezal is president of the Spokane, Washington chapter of the NAACP. For years, she has passed herself off as black. Now her parents have told the press that she is their “birth daughter and we’re both of European descent… we’re puzzled and it’s very sad.” Her ethnic heritage: German, Swedish, Czech. She is less black than Sen. Elizabeth Warren is Native American. Rachel stopped corresponding with her parents because she was afraid, according to them, that they would expose her ruse.

Now, some additional facts on the greatest story in human history:

This story is hilarious and couldn't have come at a better time.

It has exploded on Twitter. Many of the comments using the #transracial, #transraciallivesmatter and #wrongskin hashtags are a riot.

I saw #spraytanmatters someplace. But, as long as she feels afrocentric on the inside, I suppose the transracial tag works just fine. Nice to see the naacp is backing her.

Well.

Since we’re now able to simply choose (and change) our gender at the drop of a hat, and our ethnicity as well, I can finally achieve my personal goal of becoming a gay Rastafarian pygmy.

Think of all the affirmative action benefits I can finally qualify for!

There was a caller to Rush Limbaugh last week (that is before he went on vacation) that floated this very idea.

Rush picked up on it, but didn’t take it anywhere. At least not at that time.

The beeauty is the knots the Social Justice Warriors are tying themselvess into to support her. They don’t get it’s a trap.
If gender and now race are purely social constructs, and anyone can be whatever they feel like, the entire racial and gender spoil system for school admissions, jobs, government contracts etc comes crashing down.

Hell if I could have applied to med school as a Black Trans-Woman Lesbian, Hispanic Surname that +4 on the admissions “diversity derby” would have meant less worry about grades and test scores and more partying...

I don't know if this story will have a lasting effect, but to me it feels like a game-changer.

Is a homosexual born that way, or it a choice?
Politically, it is important that it NOT be a bad moral choice but instead be a case of "God made me this way".

Was Bruce Jenner born a man or a woman?
Indisputably a man.

Can Bruce Jenner choose to be a woman?
Politically, it is important that this be a viable option. If Bruce says he's a woman, then he's a woman.

I think the cat is out of the bag -- the Left can say whatever it likes, whenever it likes, for whatever reason t likes. The truth is very much "whatever", for the Left.

Now we have Rachel saying "I'm black".

Are they really going to tell me she can't say that?? On what grounds? Because if Rachel can't get away with it, then I'm going full speed back to: Bruce is a guy, and homosexuals are moral failures. You want truth? That's truth.

Fifty years ago she would have been quietly locked away in a padded room. I miss those day’s...

When asked, Bob Marley said his race was “human”. That thinking would have prevented this whole thing.

Yes, I listened to that. I can't imagine he won't be talking about this on Monday, assuming he's back.

In this country you get special privileges, admission to college, jobs and credibility if you belong to a government-certified victim group.

The more of these characteristics you have, the less you can claim victim status: White, Christian, Jewish, normalsexual, English-speaking.

Has nothing do to with a person’s individual characteristics, accomplishments, or value system.

Brilliant synopsis from a youtube comment:

“As a healthy straight, white male I was cast as the oppressor of everyone, hated by every “minority” because of something someone did to someone like them sometime in the past. Now that I am transexual, transracial, transabled, my every movement and utterance is imbued with the nobility of the aggrieved, and my struggle elicits empathy and celebration.”

Rush should return Monday as a black woman. A spray tan, a wig, and a complete fabrication of his family history should do nicely.

Thanks Rachael for all the laughs, this too much fun!

If you’re fat, you can also claim “DIsabilty,” adding still another chip to the pile. All Whites born in this country should start checking the Native American box on government forms, because we are native Americans.

Today, the entire left is struggling to explain how a white woman who identifies herself as black is not, in fact, black.

Postmodernists have been saying this for years.They believe that it's not just that we each have different sides to our personality, it's that we have no central personality in relation to which all our varied behaviors might be seen as just "sides." We are, in other words, not absolutely anything.We are a multiplicity and plethora of selves.

Yes, I listened to that. I can't imagine he won't be talking about this on Monday, assuming he's back.

When I heard, I thought it was very good.

In fact, I thought "we've got them now."

They've rammed this "you can identify as any gender you like, and everyone around you has to accept it" thing so far down everyone's throats that there's no way to back out now.

That, in combination with the "gay is the new black" meme gives the "transracial" idea irresistible force.

' That is, it would give it an irresistible force, if we lived in a society where logic prevailed. But if we lived in that kind of society, we wouldn't be in the situation we are in now.

This whole story is about a con artist who has brilliantly milked the liberal cow for power and prestige.

The simple fact that this is an ‘issue’ rather than a screamingly blatant ‘fraud’ reflects the insane political structure by which the left reinforces it’s irrationality.

You would think women would find this whole transgender crap to be extremely insulting.
