Re: Fauxahontas DNA Results
No it's not. I've seen manifestations of it. There are people all over the place that think the DNA tests showed that the woman is 1/1024th Native American. My Sister in Law is one of them. I even saw an anti Trump Republican woman who regularly appears on MSNBC lamenting Warren doing anything when she is only 1/1024th. We live in a time when the conservative movement is really bad about sowing misinformation and this is an example of it. The truth of the matter is that the results are consistent with what Warren has claimed about her ancestry. Conservative propagandists have been spinning it in manner to make her claim the subject of ridicule. It's dishonest. It's not just humor.Ivytalk wrote:It’s humor, John...a trait that you don’t even have 1/1024 of.JohnStOnge wrote:But BTW this 1/1024th thing is an example.

There was a time when I thought the left was more dishonest than the right. What's happened over the past two or three years has forced me to come to grips with the fact that the right is probably more dishonest than the left at this time in history.

Dude. I grew up in Montana and it was not okay to say you were Indian without proof. She is a tenured professor at Harvard. She needs to be held to a higher standard than the shit she has pulled.
Especially considering all of her running at the mouth being for the little guy. She had NO connection or efforts to help any Natives in her entire past.

The tests showed a Native American genetic component. Here is one discussion of it from https://www.politifact.com/truth-o-mete ... d-cant-te/:SeattleGriz wrote:You design tests and you're going to tell me not having a Native American genetic component won't affect the validity?JohnStOnge wrote:

Then there is this bottom line:We asked several top biological anthropologists to assess Bustamante’s methods. They all said they are sound.
"I have read the DNA test report closely, and think that the analysis described therein was conducted properly," said Theodore Schurr at the University of Pennsylvania.
"These are among the most robust methods today," said Deborah Bolnick at the University of Connecticut and past president of the American Association of Anthropological Genetics.
Bustamante found five DNA segments that he could say with 99 percent certainty were of Native American origin.
"Native Americans arose as a distinct population in Siberia some 17,000 to 23,000 years ago and then spread into the Americas around 16,000 years ago," Schurr said. "Indigenous populations share a common genomic make-up."
The test result is consistent Warren's claim. Conservatives arguing otherwise are spreading misinformation. But this is becoming all too common in the conservative movement. Many within it have shown a disturbing propensity for resorting to falsehood in order to promote their ideology.Researchers told us the test results fit with Warren’s account of her Native American ties.
I don't think that's necessary. I am a conservative libertarian and I don't think one has to lie in order to promote that point of view.

Re: Fauxahontas DNA Results
Come on, JSO - she let her employer classify her as a Native American minority for the better part of a decade. That's what her claims are. And this DNA test, as well as the just looking at her test, shows that she only has a tenuous link at best and wouldn't ever be considered Native American as a minority group. If she's that, then identity politics has no meaning. She is not what she (or Harvard) claimed her to be. Trump lies all the time, but other politicians have their share of lying as well - this just happened to be hers.

Her story is bullshit and shows how little she cared about the Native Americans, except to use them for advancement. If she was such a big advocate, she'd have SOME accomplishments promoting Native Americans, but yet she has none.
So important to her she didn't bother to associate or help.
