This is what passes for serious criticism of a Democrat by the press these days.

So now Kamala's getting yelled at for not being intersectional enough?

I'm a harsh critic of Harris, and a lot of her racial identity gesturing is clear triangulation for me, but this is a joke. If she's too black, she's a traitor to Asians. If she's too Asian, she's a traitor to blacks. If she says she's a woman, she's a traitor to minorities. There will never be a scenario in which she can please every identity-obsessed faction within the Democratic Party.

Once again, you all cannot claim identity politics when the GOP does things like putting Tim Scott on TV to say that America is not a racist country while simultaneously becoming the party of white grievances.

You elevate whataboutism to an art form.

Honestly, the overly racial identity-obsessed in the Democratic party who actually care about Harris allegedly being not X or Y enough ought to pound sand. So stupid.
Don't they realize mixed-race people exist?

Yeah I'm as anti Harris as they come but this is just ridiculous. Ironic for the press that completely ignored her real issues for the past two and a half years.

I never saw any articles that Obama was more focused on his African ancestry than his European ancestry despite the fact that Obama was raised mostly by his white grandparents.


Obama spent more time with his Indonesian stepfather than his biological father lol. So I guess Obama counts as the first Asian president, am I right?  Cheesy
