What fresh hell is this?

From the piece:
As a child, he announced he wanted to go by the name “Bobby,” after a character in the “Brady Bunch.” He converted from Hinduism to Christianity as a teen, and was later baptized a Catholic as a student at Brown University — making his devotion to Christianity a centerpiece of his public life. He and his wife were quick to say in a “60 Minutes” interview in 2009 that they do not observe many Indian traditions — although they had two wedding ceremonies, one Hindu and one Catholic. He said recently he wants to be known simply as an American, not an Indian American.
“There’s not much Indian left in Bobby Jindal,” said Pearson Cross, a political science professor at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette who is writing a book on the governor.
What’s the point of publishing that drivel, WaPo? Other than providing a platform for bigoted stupidity?
@mckaycoppins Washington Post is disseminating the quote. Much like eBay is disseminating racism.

Good lord. Both his parents are Indian, but he’s not Indian because he assimilated to the wrong philosophies. https://t.co/PV2VzYicNj
