@AAAAAAAADDDDDDDDD "I still don't get it, what is wrong to be genuine white?" Of course you don't get it - if you did, you wouldn't be a racist, anti-Semitic homophobe, would you? That requires a lot of not 'getting it'. Based on you giving that much of a shit who other people marry, and not even being able to stomach typing the word "Jew", I'd say you probably also don't get a lot of peace and joy. People who are happy through simple wellbeing and kindness tend not to need a bunch of external scapegoats to pin troubles on. "Genuine white"...I mean how little can you love yourself for who you are (your traits, your virtues, the effect you have on those around you, the love you create) if you feel the need to view being of Northern European ethnicity as something that carries the tagline "Genuine" like it's a leather handbag or Rembrandt painting? I like being of English and Irish heritage, I like being of African and Caribbean heritage—I don't consider any of this as some sort of achievement, nor am I proud to not be of Jewish descent. They define my ancestral history and the way I look, what defines me is what I actually do - what people will remember me for when I'm gone.

@lois7956 Well yes because you'd have to be pretty wilfully deluded to think that there's some "political correctness" committee who's demanding a royal's parentage be rewritten to appease us black people. We're written out of history, not into. Still, there's no better way to validate your prejudice than to recite those magical scare words.

Marrying one's cousin was not uncommon among English people until recently anyway, it's an American taboo - and a British one now because of the American influence.

@Edmonton-of2ec Does this have anything to do with that painting of baby Jesus where he's totally ripped?

Well it's nice to see the racism spread around across both princesses. If they're not black enough, you can always insist they're Jewish, folks.

@AAAAAAAADDDDDDDDD Me: "Marrying one's cousin was not uncommon among English people until recently anyway, it's an American taboo - and a British one now because of the American influence." -- You "That's not true - nobody married cousins before Cromwell - who let Js in." -- I'm not up on pre-Cromwell attitudes towards marrying cousins but when I said "until recently", did you honestly think I was talking 17th century rather than 20th? My obvious point was that up until the heavy American influence of the 1990s onwards, or thereabouts, English people didn't view marriage/sex with cousins as incestuous - maybe they did in 1600, I'm talking about within our lifetimes, not Oliver flippin' Cromwell's.

@earthlingalien439 Well yes, do you expect her to be 200% English to compensate?

@Edmonton-of2ec Well luckily then I couldn't find the painting I was thinking of so I can't show you. We had them on postage stamps maybe ten years ago here in Britain, it seems like a common thing though because I found other paintings from the time of babies with sweet six pack abs https://i.pinimg.com/originals/0e/1c/24/0e1c24d0b3620e5ec9dd4c04760777c7.png And they say pregnant women shouldn't abuse steroids. Clearly they should.
