Rachel Dolezal, who now goes by Nkechi Diallo,

People point out that you're pretending to be black and you change your name to Nkechi?! Come on, bro.

Prime example of doubling down and never admitting fault. If she had ever apologized or faltered she would have had to go into hiding from the shame. But by leaning into it, she becomes impervious to criticism. Honestly impressive--it's on the level of our big wet boy

a few years ago I was listening to an interview with a psychologist or something that made a pretty strong argument that she's actually extremely delusional, just not holding onto reality

She's probably mentally ill

Apparently her adopted (Black) sister supported her after the transracialism stuff came out

Basically her parents adopted 3 Black kids, and she was abused by both her father and brother, the Black adopted kids were abused as well

I think most of this was from her own words, so it's possible it might be some weird racial version of munchausen, but I remember her sister defending her
