    This isn't about being worried about racism, it's specifically the way it's said that has complete american race-science brainworms. I will never take anyone saying something like "I'm 47.3% white" seriously, or anything remotely close. This is not normal behaviour.

      Do you know what it is like to be a mixed race person in the US? This person is clearly having some problems with internalized racism and the fucked up effects of living under a white supremacist state and y'all are sitting here acting like they invented it themselves.

        I mean obviously i'm not really blaming them, they're just doing what most people do in america it's a systemic thing, as you said a white supremacist state. This isn't really about saying they're specifically weird, it's more shock and confusion at seeing americans be this fucked up on these topics for people outside of the US like me. I can't stress enough how fucking weird it looks. I know why it is like that and I don't really blame them, but I still don't want to act like it's normal.
