Hypocrisy

        This morning as i sift through the newspaper I was compelled with an article headline that reads more or less as this:

Politician daughter: Registered as race X, not race Y.

Few days ago: I learnt that this female politician (Race X) is married to a spouse of a different race from her (Race Y).It seemed that she made an issue to the national birth registry that she wanted her daughter to be registered as her own kind rather than her husband whereas it's a common rule that a child citizenship/race follows paternally. So what did this politician do? Proposed to the birth registry that her daughter ought to be registered as race: XYZ (let say name of a country race) which in my guess is a tactic to be deem as patriotic by the citizen . 


Today: As mentioned above in the headline article,.. the scenario changed. Her daughter was registered as race X not so called race XYZ or race Y. And my judgement is that she is contend and satisfied with the decision because she didn't object or make a further fuss about the matter. 


My Point? 
HYPOCRISY!! For an individual and a group party (which she represent) that fight against racism and support equal rights, such act is unacceptable. What is the significant of having the word 'race: X' printed on an ID document, when biologically both you and your husband have a share of contribution in your offspring? That's right!!, ... you see race Y as a 2nd or 3rd class citizens and probably are at adversity in this so called 'unfair' nation policies! ..or maybe you yourself regard your Race X as more superior than others!. What ever happened to the principles (mission of equality rights) that you held on to all this while?! 


 I mean..come on, interracial marriage have been going on globally since whatever centuries (you name it) and most couples are willing to tolerate on racial issue..(If they don't, why did they get married in the first place right?)


 I have a lot of second thoughts on putting this entry.. I foresee that certain individuals will look to me as a racist in an attempt to bust a racist-hypocrite political figure. Judge me all you want, but the truth hurts.. 'There are a lot of hypocrites running in the industry'. They line up another issue as a shield or mean to gain benefits of their hidden agenda.
