Fact Check: "It's actually on TikTok. Welcome to the cookout..."

What We Know

The claim revolves around a TikTok video discussing the process of obtaining Indigenous status through a tribal screening conducted by the Aboriginal Ministry of Justice, specifically for the Xi-Amaru Republic. The video suggests that individuals can correct their status to Indigenous American by fulfilling certain criteria, including domicile in the U.S., lineage tracing, and experiences related to historical injustices like slavery and Jim Crow laws. The cost for this screening is stated to be $75 for adults and $50 for children (source-1).

The Xi-Amaru Republic claims to provide a formal process for individuals to establish their Indigenous identity, which includes legal reviews and identity tracing (source-3). This process is characterized as a legal act of self-determination, aiming to restore a sense of identity for those who have experienced denationalization (source-1).

Analysis

The TikTok claim presents a narrative that resonates with many individuals seeking to reconnect with their Indigenous heritage. However, the credibility of the process described raises several concerns. The Xi-Amaru Republic is not widely recognized as a legitimate Indigenous nation by the broader community or by the U.S. government. This lack of recognition can lead to questions about the validity of the tribal screening process and the resulting status claims.

The official announcement from the Aboriginal Ministry of Justice emphasizes the importance of the screening process and its legal implications, stating that once initiated, individuals are under Indigenous jurisdiction (source-1). However, the claim that individuals can simply "correct their status" through this process may mislead those unfamiliar with the complexities of Indigenous identity and legal recognition.

Moreover, while TikTok serves as a platform for cultural engagement and representation (source-2), the information shared in such videos should be approached with caution, as they may not always reflect established legal or cultural standards.

Conclusion

The claim is Partially True. While it accurately describes a process purportedly available through the Xi-Amaru Republic for individuals seeking to identify as Indigenous Americans, the legitimacy and recognition of this process are questionable. The TikTok narrative simplifies a complex issue surrounding Indigenous identity and legal status, potentially misleading viewers about the implications and validity of such claims.

Fact Check: Covid nimbus. Here's the symptom you need to know about that nobody's talking about. What's that? You haven't heard of COVID nimbus? Probably need to talk about that too. So let's get to it. Stick to the end. I'll talk a little bit about prevention. So COVID nimbus is the newest variant going on. It is NB. 1. 8. 1. Say that three times fast. And the unfortunate part about this is it looks like it's more contagious than other variants that we've had recently but it doesn't look so bad that it's going to wind you up necessarily in the hospital. But if you followed me at all you know that that's not necessarily the worst thing 00:32 that happens. You can still develop long COVID from any COVID infection that you get no matter how serious it is or not. But it has a gnarly symptom we have not really seen with COVID in the past. And it mimics other things that we see this tiny year so it's going to be even more important that you test for it when you start getting sick. And it's being associated with razor blades. I know it's not from when you pee so don't worry about that one. Don't go down that road. It's at being associated with the sensation of swallowing razor blades because it causes such a severe sore throat it is akin 01:06 to that sensation. And that can be a similar symptom to a lot of other things particularly things we see in kids like strep throat. Or in older kids things like mononucles. Which you also see surges in usually in summer. But prevention things seem to work the same as they've been working. So vaccinate and if you can get a booster and you haven't like in the last three to six months talk to your doctor about doing so. If you are at high risk and have autoimmune issues or autoimmune suppressants do like I did which is get monoclonal antibodies to protect you
