It definitely does. Why do she and Piyush feel a need to hide their heritage. That said, I'm all for calling people what they prefer in general. But you know they ditched it to blend in with the bigots better. And when someone tries to do something for deceptive, manipulative reasons. With solidly horrible goals in mind. Fuck em.
Rafael Edward Cruz for example? At least Barack Hussein Obama had the balls to run under his real name. And win. And that made some people seriously mad. 🤣
Shouldn't talk shit as I'm a coward who won't use my middle name in same cases. First name and surname? Whitebread as it gets, seriously couldn't be anymore white, think "Steve Jones". Middle name? LOL, black. "Steve Tyrone Jones"
Had my resumes trashed for almost 2-months, not a single email or phone call. WTF? Couldn't find anything wrong on my resume, and I'm a fair writer and proofreader.
Ah! There it go. Dropped the "black" name off my email and resume, 3 interviews the following week and a great job the next. When I next switched jobs, got 2 solid offers in 24-hours.
I see black guys do this all the time at work. They'll obfuscate their name to be more palatable.
"Tyrone Jones? Nah, I go by TJ."
First name: Tyrone. Middle: Steve. Last: Jones. "Hi! I'm Steve Jones!"
For those wondering:
Not that this matters at all, really.
