Being "entitled" is not limited to those born in wealth. It is an attitude which can be held by anyone even if they have not obtained success. She thinks she is entitled to her current position and even the presidency. I have seen pro athletes or entertainers who feel very entitled who were born in poor surroundings.
The "entitled" thing is being used by some to denigrate and criticize individuals and they only apply it to those whose political views they don't like--it is being used in a very negative manner. I am not using it that way. Calling Warren a wealthy entitled white woman is no different than calling Trump, Kavanaugh, or Beto O'Rourk entitled.
I hate no one and think those posters who attack others are hypocrites who pretend they believe in love and tolerance.
That is not my definition of "entitled," it is your definition: "believing oneself to be inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment."
Such a definition is based purely on attitudes impossible to measure--therefore, it becomes a term used to attack those you dislike. Even though you claim they are entitled you believe you are morally superior and better than they are.
Those who fall for the party's latest focus group buzzword are just looking for snarky things to say. Republicans yelling about Democratic "mobs" and Democrats yelling about "entitlement" are just blindly following the hate mongers.
Warren can fit the "entitled" category as much as Kavenaugh or Trump--one does not have to take that as a black/white term used to attack others. It is only taken as a negative term by those seeking to give negative o positive interpretations to all posts.

I didn't make up a definition. I used your (dictionary) definition which is "believing oneself to be inherently deserving of privileges or special treatment."
The definition clearly says "believing oneself" which means you cannot measure what someone believes about himself and do not know whether he believes that or not.
That is the point--posters decide to attribute those beliefs to those they don't like and use it as an attack on those individuals.
However, those same self-righteous posters get very upset if someone attributes those same attitudes to someone like Elizabeth Warren whom they like and then give the stupid excuse that she can't be "entitled" because she did not come from a wealthy family which has nothing to do with the definition of the word. Their bigoted prejudice against someone born into a wealthy family is what is driving their hatred, not the person's beliefs about whether they are inherently deserving.
Actually if you read the full report the dna guy did not compsre to actual Cherokee dna but rather a variety of south and central american. And admitted he used some insider tips in putting it together.
No wonder she had to go to California with sample taken in Georgia to obtain a suitanle resiult.
LOL! What a retarded OP!
And all the moron JJP leftists retards liked! This is great!
She lied and said she was NA to get into harvard. There is a reason she lied. She lied to benefit herself.
Keep changing the names. It doesn't change the meaning.
Abortion
Pro-Choice
Women's rights
Women's Health
Let's try again, pally. It's not MY definition. It's the accepted one. Want your own? Good write your own fucking dictionary. Until then, "entitled" means EXACTLY as I posted. And, while it apples to asswipes like Trump, it does not to a person like Warren, who has worked hard all her life to get where she is.
You attributed the word first, idiot. Or have you forgotten that?
You know what word comes just before 'shit' in the dictionary? Shineola. Look it up. Right now, you don't the difference between it and shit.
is there anything really wrong about taking a moment out of our busy lives to just sit back and laugh at Elizabeth Warren?.......
