A "Pretendian" is a term often used by Indians to describe someone who falsely claims Indigenous ancestry or cultural identity without any legitimate basis. This term is often applied to individuals who disrespectfully appropriate/change Indigenous cultures or traditions for personal gain (in an effort to seem more exotic or interesting than they really are.)

Similar to a “pretendian”, Black Americans have a play on the term "Foundational Black Americans" (FBAs) — "Fossilized Black Americans."

Just like “Pretendians”, Fossilized Black Americans cling to any minuscule amount of African DNA remnant from their ancestors, to try to legitimately claim that they are part of the black identity in the present (Even if authentic, dark-skinned Black Americans don’t see them as black; Even when they don’t look black; Even when they’re extremely distanced from blackness and black culture)

They are fossils of the former identity that their ancestors embodied.
Yeah sure, they’re ‘FBA' alright – Fossilized Black Americans (FBAs)”

American Intelligence

N. ( Oxymoron ) Lying, corrupted, always redacted American agencies who claim to survey, gather, sort and analyze intelligence threats to the ' Free world, when in fact ' having intelligence ' is the ONLY thing they're not guilty of.
See also: ' New World Order, Hegemony and Royal Guard.'
( White House press conference ):
" Through our own various sources, our ' American Intelligence ' has came to the conclusion that we are to invade Iraq to disarm, weapons of mass destruction, to end Saddam Hussein's support for terrorism, and to free the Iraqi people." ( whispering to generals ) Now go get us that oil!
