Edit for context:
My view is transracial isn’t valid and this person is trying to dogwhistle. I’ve already blocked this person, and now they’re going after my friend saying my friend is transphobic because they disagreed with them about transracial being a thing (they’re purposefully leaving the context out so my friend looks transphobic when what my friend really said was transgender is valid but transracial isn’t)
I’d respond, “Rachel Dolezal was never shot by the police” and “Michael Jackson did not become an honorary white person just because he tried to be one.”
ironically the assumption that Michael was trying to become white is both racist and ableist. he was suffering from vitiligo which led him to use skin-lightening prescription creams to cover up the uneven blotches of color caused by the disability.
And the rhinoplasty?
He wanted Latoya’s nose
I prefer elephantoplasty…
And the wigs? Vitiligo means uneven splotches. He was fully white from head to toe from bleaching.
does a Black person wearing a wig or straightening their hair make them white? i don’t understand this asinine question.
Vitiligo is a disability that causes ostracization so he tried hiding it. there’s this thing called universal vitiligo which can progress to your entire skin. maybe do a bit of research next time before casting judgment?
