I find it funny how you constantly question whether or not people are Native and accuse them of lying about it. Yet, the second anybody mentions that they question your heritage, you get upset, tell them they're identity policing and tell them you don't have to prove anything to them.

Invalid argument^

I do not question or deny people’s identity. A person’s race is irrelevant when they are promoting racism. You cannot blame me for the anonymous messages you receive that deny your “Native” heritage. I do not send anonymous messages, ever. You cannot blame me for accusations that I didn’t make.

& I am not upset when people deny my identity; it is very common for people to deny my race when they are promoting racism against my race.

I do not have to prove anything to anyone. I know who I am and that is enough for me.

And my race has nothing to do with you posting racist images.
