I don't even identify as white. My DNA has more in common with North Africa than with the Anglo-Saxon groups that created the concept of "being white", so you should check your prejudices

Sorry, can't let this go. This is the whitest fucking shit I've ever heard. Bro, non-white people don't fucking choose how to identify. They are identified and have to deal with how they're identified. The fact that you think you can choose to not identify with whiteness screams of the fact that you're absolutely steeped in it.

It's pretty insensitive and fucking racist not respecting how anyone choose to identify. Fucking disgusting. I'm done here. Goodbye for good. You are NO ONE to tell me with which ethic label should I identify.
