The Sad Sad World of the Terminally PC

How can a white girl spend her life trying to pass off as "African-American"?!

Some might say that this is because Western society now awards more "brownie" points (oops! pun unintended) to "ethnic" people than natives, but personally I don't think that that's a major factor.  What I do think is that this sort of thing - in a milder, less physical sort of way - is not at all uncommon on the extreme political left.

 

Interesting to hear Syms views on this anyway.

The World is full of folks pretending to be someone they aren't.  Con artists do it for dosh, Grant Shapps hid behind his alter ego Michael Green's 'get rich quick scheme', many online do it for 'protection' (including here), Michael Jackson used bleaching products to become 'white',  Nige pretends to be a 'man of the people', Harriet and Dave both minimise/deny their poshness for political advantage.  It really doesn't matter if that Yankee lass did a good job at the NAACP she got the job by deception;  she deserves all the opprobrium being directed at her.  Or course, it a complete nonsense to think that this type of behaviour ONLY exists on the left ... it's everywhere!  A pox on all their houses.
