That’s normally called being a malignant narcissist, like Hussein.

The only reason people are comparing this to Bruce Jenner is the timing — there are no actual similarities. Even if you consider both to have some kind of illness,they are different illnesses.

Whatever is the matter with her, I’m pretty sure, is what makes people claim to be Holocaust survivors or military veterans. They don’t htink they will ever get caught because that is part of their pathology. They’re not con artists. They have more in common with someone with Munchausen Syndrome by PRoxy (“How did she think she could get away with poisoning her own child??”) than with con artists. In a weird way, they don’t think they are lying, so they can’t think they will get caught — and if they do get caught, like this woman, they think what they say to explain themselves will satisfy eveyrone.

The parents are not the strongest influence on the current generations.

As for missionary work, it is better than the vast majority of ways white people get rid of their guilt.

It is always better to do something productive than to use your NAACP title to coerce other people to pay an extortion fee, so that it looks to everyone that good is being done.

Neo-
I think the Dolezal parents merit a closer look. 2010 census says there are 2600 people in Libby, MT, of which 0.1% are black. That equals two persons, perhaps her sibs, the other two having moved.

There is something odd for a “religious” couple to bring adopted young black kids into a small, rural town in Montana. Small towns are small towns, with small town culture. The kids had to be imported from a goodly distance away. Adoption of four was no small task. From Chicago? From where?
Why not Indian infants off a rez? Why not white kids? Why blacks? How did these adoptees turn out?

The Dolezals were making a statement with the adoptions, IMO: We are holier than thou, you people of Libby, and we have these black kids as proof. There is something Bergdahleque about the parents. That Rachel married a black suggests how her thinking and choice(s) were shaped by her parents.

The whole thing makes me uncomfortable….lotsa victims.
I despise frauds, but I just pity poor Rachel. She is a trout who was morphed into a flounder.

Frog: Well, her parents don't seem to have been suffused with so much white guilt themselves that they weren't about to tell the truth about her. I think something of what you say is true, however, although I don't automatically blame the parents, because I don't know what they actually told her about race and worth, etc.. Sounds as though they are very religious, and that was their motive at least in part. Also, having seen photos of the family, I noticed that Rachel (now 37 years old) was very significantly older than her adopted siblings. Her Wiki page states that they were adopted when she was a teenager. I would estimate she might have been around 15 or 16 from some of the articles I've read (this article, for example, has a photo of Rachel at her wedding, and of some of the adopted brothers, who are very much younger). If that is correct, that would mean she was almost grown up before they came into the family.

To finish up: I blame Dolezal’s parents. As the twig is bent, so grows the tree.

Strikes me, and apparently no one else, that she was raised by white guilt parents out there in rural Montana. The parents adopted 4 black kids with whom she was apparently raised, and later did “missionary work” in South Africa.
Being white in a small herd of adopted black siblings, competing for parental love and attention, does not sound like a healthy start. The blacks were presumably adopted (i.e., sought), with the implication they were better since the parents deliberately chose them.
So perhaps in some symbolic ways she concluded that Black Is Better. And has (logically, in her view) chosen to live as a Black. Probably voted for our “First Black President”, Clinton, who, last I checked, was white too.

Appropriating a culture. Thought crime. But in Obamaca, certain criminals are more equal than other criminals.

From the – Seinfeld covered almost everything – department, this video relates to that at least a little bit – “So we’re just a couple of white people?”
