NBC "News:" Crazy People Are Watching Videos Telling Them They Can Change Their Race Just By Wishing It So and Putting on Different Clothes, But That's Just Crazy, Only a Crazy Person Would Believe You Can Race-Change Yourself

What if you use drugs to darken your skin? What if you get plastic surgery to make your facial features resemble those of another race?

It is urgently insisted to me that such things change someone's sex.

So why not race, which is a much less genetically-consequential thing than genetic sexual differences?

At Twitchy, NBC "News" consults "experts" who tell them that people can't change their race just by affections and really wanting to be another race.

You don't say?

But we can still change our sexes just by thinking it, right?

"It's just belief," said Jamie Cohen, an assistant professor of cultural and media studies at Queens College, City University of New York. "It doesn't ever really work, because it's not doing anything, but they have convinced themselves that it works because there's other people who have convinced themselves, as well."

Um.

This is a pretty amazing quote from an "expert" who I'm certain believes that Trans Women Are Women, Bigot!

This article says that while race is a social construct, you can NEVER change your race.

Hmmm .... you were almost there to understanding why you can't be transgender. Replace the following quote in the article with "women".

"It's not just putting on the hair and the makeup and talking and walking [in] a kind of way. That is fetishizing, and it's objectifying, and it reduces the beautiful and complicated cultures of people of color."

Fetishizing and objectifying the superficial traits of another race "reduces" that race.

Now do "women." Or "men," for that matter.

Note that the "experts" here sign on to the idea that race isn't genetic.

Of course it is. Culture isn't genetic, but for these extremely stupid "experts," race is your culture. Identity politics is your identity, and identity politics is chiefly about race.

Experts agree race is not genetic. But they contend that even though race is a cultural construct, it is impossible to change your race because of the systemic inequalities inherent to being born into a certain race.

No, it's impossible to change your race because it's genetic. Ethnologists trace the migration of ancient races by finding hapotypes in the genetic codes of modern populations that mark them as having descended from this or that tribe.

But the "New Science" requires the wholesale destruction of actual science.

Psst: The "New Science" is a pagan, satanic religion.
