I don’t have an answer to your specific question but I believe that, years ago, most of the cars built in the US were from foreign automakers.
This was because with import taxes and tariffs it was cheaper to build the cars here to avoid those than to build elsewhere and import the vehicles.
This, and really your whole comment, comes across like it’s okay for one person to decide another isn’t what they identify as because their experiences were not the same.
Using the social construct argument who is Janet Jackson to say Kamala Harris or anybody else is not black.
Getting some real Dwight Schrute vibes here. Shouldn’t Janet have called Kamala Caucasian?
