Americans using "Nativeness" as an aesthetic is a huge deal and that is exactly what happened here.

It is simply a bad look and really tone deaf on her part.

I bring it up because Strike said

Not only does Warrens blood ancestry fall very much in line with the wider white population
@Beskar, I accidentally deleted the post content that Strike is quoting when I was pulling it for my response. Could you please restore it? Thanks.
