It didn't work for Elizabeth Warren. No one suggested that a pretextual claim of ancestry which the person knew to have no support is enough to establish identity.

It didn't work for her because literally anybody has as much NA blood as she does:

In other words, she wanted to claim some Identity Space for herself...but to no avail.

But at least we have Cherokee crab recipes to cherish as a result of all that!

Trans identity isn't linked to chromosomes. That's the point. Trans identity is based on the principle that gender identity is a construct that is not inextricably tied to chromosomes, which is how gender dsyphoria can exist.

If someone can be gender dysphoric, why can't they be race dysphoric?
We're all of the *human* race, are we not? "Race" as used in popular culture is far more of a social construct than "gender" as used today is.
