Speak for yourself ... I'm full blooded Indigenous and I categorically don't agree with any of this

It smacks of colonialism 2.0 ... take an identify under false pretenses ... get called a liar ... look for an excuse and it doesn't matter any more.

If nothing is done about this .. then more false actors are bound to appear now and in the future who can think that its acceptable to carry out this stupid charade.

Don't base all of Indigenous acceptance to this stupidity based on one family in one region in one situation. This affects millions and the number of people it affects is related to the number of reactions out there.
