‘Brown’ is an ethnicity.
But brown is not.

LOL —> “Back in those days, a lot of kids would use that word both with kids of African American origin and people of any brown ethnicity.”

That argument didn’t work for preventing insane progressive attacks on the Founding Fathers. And “those days” for the FF was a LOT farther back in time than the remarks by this idiot.

“racist, misogynist and antisemitic”

Isn’t that a given for most muslims whether they post about it or not?

Not a congress critter seat. “Prince William County Board of Supervisors” seat, according to the excerpt.

He’s a Pakistani immigrant is the notation. Not an American.

What a dummy not to know that the N word is only acceptable when used by one black person to another black person. Browns are not allowed to use the sacrosanct black term.
