    Pretty sure in Japan it effects your ability to get/have health insurance and they throw you in reeducation... er fitness classes. No really there are laws about it

    But cool it's a strawman.

    So my very argument is that she has been effectively treated as white and has received no material benefits from claiming native heritage and you agree, but you take issue with her making the truthful claim that she has an ancestor from a Native background?

    Nice strawman.
    ah yes the old I know you are but what am I defense

    to salience, it's definitionally a strawman as I never said nor implied she recieved tangible benefits from her sad little claims. you're arguing against a point I never made. dare I say, arguing against a man of straw.

    and what I take issue with is the white person marking herself down as a minority and allowing her university to promote her as a Native American for years. does it invalidate everything she has ever done and end her career? no. is it deserving of mockery and scorn? well I don't know how to say yes in Indian but maybe Chief Elizabeth does.

    She grew up hearing stories from her family about being part native American?

    I guess it's her fault for believing her family, believing Trump would live up to his bet, and for technology catching up on finding ethnicity.

    I guess people will find something to bitch about someone on the other team no matter what.

    I guess this is why I still believe Kobe is a rapist.

    Well what else do you call it when I break down why my arguments are relevant (and thus not strawmen) but point out yours have no relevance (and therefore are strawmen)

    to salience, it's definitionally a strawman as I never said nor implied she recieved tangible benefits from her sad little claims. you're arguing against a point I never made. dare I say, arguing against a man of straw.
    Then what is the relevance of bringing it up?

    My factual reconstruction is correct. Someone asked if she said high, and I said she never said high. You point to all these instances which are seemingly irrelevant unless you are actually going to proceed to argue that what she did was bad because she received unfair benefits.

    and what I take issue with is the white person marking herself down as a minority and allowing her university to promote her as a Native American for years.
    She has claimed to be part Native. That is hardly equivalent to identifying primarily as Native or presenting oneself predominantly as that race, which I have not seen her do.

    Is that "part" so infinitesimal that it should be insignificant? To me, it would be. But I think that's an issue of self-determination. I'm loathe to start setting minimum quanta standards to filter any person's claims to any heritage.

    the relevance, as was clearly stated, is that she is a living white liberal stereotype deserving of a laff. you don't get to make inferences about what was said because it's the point you want to be arguing against.

    and she marked herself as minority and was presented as Native American by Harvard. no qualifiers, no nuance, she was once a minority Native American. I'm glad she no longer claims a significant percentage but she once claimed the whole kit and caboodle in a self-evident joke deserving of jokery.

    It's mildly funny. Not fair for Netflix though. Hollywood has been whitewashing for decades.

    I mean sure Harvard has some share of the blame for actually accepting her claims but they were her claims.

    Either way it's dumb she's dumb and worth a least a bit of a chuckle at all the mental gymnastics
