White people claiming to be brown, indigenous, any PoC (usually via DNA test/pseudo genetic theory) is another manifestation of white supremacy, which is to absolve individual white people from causing harm by participating in racist systems which benefit them. https://twitter.com/samdylanfinch/status/1197956933572915200
This is a very good thread explaining that phenomena from the POV of an ethnic white person who can often be taken for being non white via pseudo race/genetic science (Maltese). It’s also a rebuke of Mayor Pete Buttcrack’s claim about his fathers heritage (Maltese).
This behavior also obscures the fact that white supremacy is a political system of oppression which prioritizes the needs/desires of white peoples (& their approximates) and not really about skin tone or skin color.
To discuss whiteness in the context of skin color only & not the political implications is dishonest & deliberately white washing centuries of crime perpetuated by imperialism, colonialism & white supremacy.
