I also wish people would stop saying this.

No. The One Drop Rule states that anyone with Negro ancestry shall be labeled a Negro.

That is what I said - without the derogatory terms.

"The one drop rule stipulates that anyone with black ancestry is 100% black and should be labeled as such. That is not true so the one drop rule doesn't exist. "

I see no difference between what I said and what you just reiterated.


No shit - I said that.

"The One drop rule somewhat exists. "
It does not exist.


The one drop rule socially exists in the USA.

Biologically, a mulatto is as White as he is Black.

But, in the USA, he is LABELED as a Black.
Is that genetically proper? No, but a lot of Americans are still in the skin color fantasy.


I never said the one drop rule doesn't socially exist.

I specifically said that it doesn't biologically exist and that is all that matters. What the masses believe has no bearing on right or wrong. Fact doesn't necessitate popularity.

I don't use Negro in a derogatory manner...
I refrain from "Nigger" so people wouldn't whine - but I guess nothing is good enough if it isn't Politically Correct.

I know. Nobody ever said that you have to be 100% Negroid to be labeled a Negro, a Black, or an "African-American".


It does not exist.
You have to say HOW. Biologically - it obviously does not. Socially, it does.

Try telling people that skin isn't race - and you'll be labeled as racist.

They, for some incredibly ignorant reason, choose race by skin.

I don't get it either...
