    Don’t they mean Nimrata Haley? Or are Republicans allowed to use alternative names while American citizens can’t?

    Edit: Nimarata

      It’s Nimarata, and could you imagine if everyone just started calling her that instead. Republicans would lose their minds that people are not respecting her wishes to be called something different.

        Because “Gilgamesha” wasn’t feminine enough for her parents, when picking out names? 😶

          She’s Indian. Pretty bigoted to make fun of that, despite what you think of her politics

            This is Lemmy. Racism against Asians is a-okay, even encouraged. I asked someone to stop making fun of M Night Shyamalan’s name and got downvoted to oblivion. Just like Reddit lol

      Yes but she goes by Nikki. Her full name is known pretty widely, just like Joe instead of Joseph Biden.
