Haha. Nice one.

“People of Color” are shocked with these words.
But the Ministry of information (MSM) keeps telling us Biden selected a “WOC”, a woman of color.
He should have said “person of color” instead of “colored person”. The “of” makes all the difference.
All of these fired broadcasters ought to put together their own company. Bleep U Broadcasters.
I think it is so insulting to be described by the color of your skin.
I recall years ago, someone was criticized for using the term “indian” instead of “native American”.
A local radio commentator said, tongue in cheek, “Someone should inform the American Indian Movement (AIM) that the name of their organization is offensive”.
Yes, it was classless to call her colored, he should have just called her Willie’s whore.
what would say the National Assoc for the Advancement of Colored People?
Core values??? WTF???
She is colored. Racially, she is a colored person. Her Race is not Black, nor is it Indian American. That is not a race.
Dummy probably thought he was being all woke n sheeit by even mentioning it during a sports event. Stick to sports next time dummy.

Other reversals would not mean something wrong. Oil of lemon or lemon oil. Juice of grapefruit or grapefruit juice. Deed for your house or your house deed.
More special rights and special responsibilities for certain people.
Good question
This is one of the reasons the aliens won’t talk to us...
I still maintain anyone born in the
USA is a Native American.I grew up with
“American Indian” as a term for those descendents of the Indian tribes..I was
born in the USA and my ancestors came over
here from Britain (before the US
declared independence) and Ireland.
I’m a Native American.
The children’s book author is British
but her book series is called The
Indian in the Cupboard.For now we
still have the Cleveland Indians.
