Andrew Bolt: It seems some genes don’t fit
THESE days it’s apparently so unpleasant to be white that people will do anything to avoid their heritage, writes Andrew Bolt.

IT’S now official. Labor and Liberal Senators ruled on Tuesday that it’s not OK to be white.
They voted no to a One Nation motion saying “it’s OK to be white” and for bonus laughs then praised themselves for not being racists.
What hypocrites. No wonder so many white Leftists now prefer to be some other colour instead.
Take Democrat Senator Elizabeth Warren, a hot contender for the race to become the next president of the United States. For decades, Warren claimed to be a Native American and was feted for it.

IT’S OK TO BE WHITE SLOGAN NOT A PUSH FOR ANTI-RACISM
ELIZABETH WARREN MOCKED BY TRUMP AS ‘POCAHONTAS’
In 1997, the Harvard Law School boasted she was its first “woman of colour” law professor, even though her complexion is whiter than mine.
Warren even published alleged Cherokee recipes in a Pow Wow Chow cookbook, and self-identified as a “Native American” in every edition of the Association of American Law Schools Directory of law professors from 1986 to 1995.
On TV, she told teary stories of the prejudice her family had suffered: “My mom and dad … wanted to get married and my father’s parents said absolutely not. You can’t marry her because she’s part Cherokee and she’s part Delaware.”
Journalists fawned over her multi-ethnicity, just as they do over whites here who identify as Aborigines.
But trust President Donald Trump to say what most people don’t dare.
He mocked Warren as “Pocohontas” and offered $1 million to charity if she could prove she had Indian blood.
Warren this week claimed she’d succeeded. She’d had a DNA test and a Stanford professor and adviser to 23andMe concluded: “The results strongly support the existence of an unadmixed Native American ancestor … likely in the range of 6-10 generations ago.”
Seriously? So Warren identifies as Indian rather than white even though just one of 1024 ancestors may have been Indian themselves. At most, she’s 1/64 parts Indian.
See, it’s not OK to be white.
And Warren is not actually special. A study of 148,789 other European Americans tested by 23andMe and reported in the American Journal of Human Genetics found they were on average 0.18 per cent Indian — within Warren’s range of 0.1 per cent to 1.6 per cent.
But how does such an insignificant DNA blip entitle anyone to more privileges or more status as a victim or oracle?
It’s insane. It’s racist. And it’s not OK.
Lockdown will kill Victorians — but not from coronavirus
Politicians are destroying Australia — throwing a million people out of work, causing suicides — because they’ve fallen for two great weaknesses, both of which will extend crippling lockdowns much longer than necessary, writes Andrew Bolt.
Record day proves crude bans on freedom don’t work
Victoria’s new record of 725 infections is more evidence that the government’s hard line policies on masks and lockdowns aren’t working as planned, writes Andrew Bolt.
