I'm honestly impressed by how they think that 1 possible Jewish ancestor outweighs 3 demonstrably white ones. It's like Greek mythology, where parentage by a god would count for so much more.
It's something weird you see in white supremacist ideology that is tied to a very archaic understanding of "blood". White blood can only be pure white, and it can only decrease. You can't get more pure, only less. So, in a weird result, you get people who are almost entirely white, and declaring themselves to be something else (See: Fauxcahontas). Using this bizarre definition, there's hardly any white people in the US, but in reality, whites very likely make up 73% of the population, but a ton aren't identifying as white. Especially the """white hispanic""" population.
Yet somehow, people like Barack Obama, Kamala Harris, Don Lemon, and Megan Merkel are all just as Capital B Black as Shaka Zulu, even if they are mullato, indian, mostly white, and actually white.
Unless, of course, you didn't vote for Joe Biden. That's when we know you ain't black.
