I saw a standup comedy clip where a second-generation Asian man recounted his experiences at the Department of Motor Vehicles as a teen in the south some years ago. There were only two options for race, and the clerk said, "well, you ain't black!"
To extend the metabor for analysis, there was once a considerable array of labels for people with different fractions of African and colonist ancestry, especially in Spanish territorias of the New World, if memory serves. This nuance not only assumes that race matters, it ignores the natives, Asians, and any other group not part of the black/white spectrum.
As for politics, I am often accused of being a brainwashed MAGA idiot when I push back against the Democrats or other leftists online, and a retarded communist when I challenge the Republican talking points. The concept of a libertarian anarchist is outside their frame of reference, and they cannot understand it. They just associate the term "anarchist" with hooligans rioting in the streets. And if I do encounter other anarchists, they usually insist I have to adhere to the scripture of Marx and denounce religion.
Yay boxes. No wonder I don't fit in anywhere.
