[Chucho]

What a cretin. him. The biggest victim of whitey never catches a break

[sickdsm]

whites having native american blood is the biggest scam in US history. It is just an urban legend created by whites to expunge themselves from the native american genocide.

I know of many whites that said this and then did the ancestry.com deal and turns out they had zero native american blood but 2% african or so

Its basically like germans saying they are 3% jew

I have my dad's side of the family tree back to the early 1800's in Germany. Probably not anything there but my mom's side gets pretty murky in the Pierre/ft Pierre area in the territory/early statehood days. There's a pretty darn good chance of some blood there.

Pocahontas was a pre-teen who was kidnapped,

held hostage &

raped by European invaders.

Stop using her name as a racial slur &

how dare you insult these brave Native men who risked their lives for this country.

Can I use the N word on a white person near black people and not say it's a racial slur?

He's making fun of her not being an indian and Pocahantas is not offensive in and of itself like n*gger is. Pocahantas is actually a revered name for a well liked historical figure.

We know the context he is using. It's to be offensive. It's a racial slur in this context.

[AaronY]

Would be like calling a black guy who thinks he's white George Washington or something

[dabom]

Anyone saying otherwise is deluded.

They should be thankful their ancestors were obliterated by whitey, amirite CosmicCowboy

Dude says its a slur at the end.

[dabom]

It's a losing argument AaronY. Don't need to double down.

[AaronY]

White guy is racist against white lady for calling her a beloved historical indian figure

[dabom]

White guy is racist against white lady for calling her a beloved historical indian figure

The guy already acknowledged that and still said the context made it a slur. Wtf are you going on about now?

[AaronY]

What if she finds out her great great grandfather was a cowboy in like Oklahoma in the 1880s. That'd be pretty cool if she could be both a cowboy and an indian

Cowboys don't get any affirmative action so no benefit there. Poor whitey we don't get any benefits in this world today...hoo boy don't even get me started there

He was clearly making fun of Warren but using Pocahontas' name as an insult is the issue, the point I have seen made is that he is trivializing her memory by using as such. Native American leaders have come out and called it incentive or flat out racist.

“Pocahontas” Not a Racial Slur, Says Prominent White Expert





WASHINGTON —Donald J. Trump’s use of the name “Pocahontas” at a White House event honoring Navajo veterans was not a racial slur, a prominent white expert said on Monday.

“If some Native Americans were offended by the use of this term, I’m sorry that they’re so wrong,” the expert said.

“As a white person, I think I’m in a better position to know about this stuff.”

She also defended the decision to honor the Navajo veterans near a portrait of Andrew Jackson, who is widely reviled by Native Americans.

“Before we held the ceremony, we consulted with a number of other white experts, and we all agreed that Andrew Jackson was great,”

she said.

At times, the white expert seemed exasperated at having to explain to Native Americans what was a racial slur and what was not.

“Look, I can explain it to them, but it’s real time-consuming, and I have a lot of other stuff to do,” she said.

In closing, the Caucasian said that

accusing Trump of intentionally offending the Navajos was absurd.

“No one knows more about offending people than Donald Trump,” she said.

Shaka Zulu is a widely respected African badass from history. How about you go up to random Africans and call them that and see what happens.

"Pocahantas is actually a revered name for a well liked historical figure."

she was raped, emblematic for Native American of Europeans raping the Americas (an ongoing project, eg, Zinke, Pruitt, etc).
