      To be honest, I always thought these DNA ancestry tests were a big sociological psy-op in which the results of anyone whiter than white would come back with a bit of black just to ram home the message that we're all the product of mass immigration.

      Just like the Indian chap on the ad who thinks he's a Viking.

              Because it will make white, self loathing liberals feel good about themselves when they discover they have a few licks of the tar brush.
