No race is safe from Ancestry.com DNA test memes, which clown people who start identifying with a new culture after finding out they have a minuscule percentage of a previously unknown ethnicity in their genes. These memes are also used to stereotype various ethnicities via common racist tropes.

A more wholesome version of this meme gained popularity earlier this year on TikTok, with users making videos of themselves taking fake DNA tests with surprising results set to Lizzo’s smash hit, “Truth Hurts.”
