I love how the author has to twist xerself into a pretzel to try to pretend it's not the exact same as troons:

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.

David Freund, a historian of race and politics and an associate professor at the University of Maryland, College Park, corroborates the idea that a “biological race” does not exist. What we know today as “race” is a combination of inherited characteristics and cultural traditions passed down through generations, he said.

In addition, Freund said, the modern concept of race is inseparable from the systemic racial hierarchy hundreds of years in the making. Simply put, changing races is not possible, because “biological races” themselves are not real.

Freund added that the idea of changing one’s race operates differently depending on a person’s racial background and that white people who seek to “transition” to other races can often sidestep the harms of racism.

First of all, (((Freund)))

Second of all, harms of racism? But I thought sexism was also a huge problem for all of human history. Is that fine to "sidestep" then? So why isn't racism? Really activates my almonds.

And race doesn't exist, of course, someone from Ghana is a carbon copy of someone from Japan after all. Only a fool who doesn't Trust the Experts would say there are obvious differences visible at first glance!
