Here We Go: ‘TRANSRACIAL’ White Guy Says He’s Filipino Now
Daily Caller ^ | 11/13/17 | Justin Caruso

The newest social justice identity is here — “transracial” individuals who think they are really a different race than the one they were born as.

An article published Monday on the USA Today Network profiles a white male named Adam who now believes he is Filipino and calls himself “Ja Du,” and drives a “Tuk Tuk,” a Filipino vehicle.

The article reads, “Ja Du is part of a small but growing number of people who call themselves transracial. The term once referred only to someone (or a couple) of a one race adopting a child of another, but now it’s becoming associated with someone born of one race who identifies with another.”

Speaking about Filipino culture, “Du” says, “Whenever I’m around the music, around the food, I feel like I’m in my own skin.”

He is not just transracial, however. He is also transsexual and is thinking about changing his gender too.

The article also reports that Facebook groups for transracial people are growing.

The issue of transracial-ism has been floated before when in 2015, Rachel Dolezal, then the president of a local NAACP chapter, was revealed to be a white woman pretending to be black.

At the time, comparisons between Dolezal and transgender people like Caitlyn Jenner were smacked down by the social justice world.

Hey - that’s the answer for the black folks. They can claim to be white and all their “injustices” just fade away. That’s the ticket! They can get a job like a normal white person, accept responsibilities as a parent like a normal white person, behave like a normal white person, give up rioting and burning down their own neighborhoods, respect the police! Such a deal!

I think the president can complain that his shirt (??) has fewer buttons than the Filipino President..that’s definitely discrimination. I’m assuming that’s who the other dude is!

When I worked in a Puerto Rican only agency I was the token white guy. There was a token Black woman on the board. But no Mexican or Cuban as the Puerto Ricans feel they are used by those other groups.

But when some Puerto Rican clients came in and I would work with them to get a job, they labeled me Mexican because I learned my Spanish from immigrants from the hills of Mexico...hill billy Mexicans and sounded like them.

So am I transethnic?

So, does that mean he is a crustacean with ‘blue blood’? Perhaps he grew up near a copper mine?

Maybe.

I have two other possible theories.

  1. He was kidnapped by a mad tattooist, and held captive for an extended period of practice time for the tattooist.

         or

  2. He was trying to dye his blue jeans in a large vat of blue dye, but accidently fell in himself.
