Trans-racial people are people who identify with a race other than their own. Notable examples include Grey Owl, a prominent Canadian who identified as native as adult, but was in fact English, from Dorset (United Kingdom).

Academic Definition
New York University Associate Professor of Sociology Ann Morning, whose reseach area is "race and ethnicity, especially racial classification, " defined the term: "just like some people are transgender, others may be trans-racial – identifying more with a race other than their own. "

Dr Peter Gale, a senior lecturer in race and ethnicity at the University of South Australia, told The Sydney Morning Herald that "it was possible for a person to identify as another race." Gale said race was a social construct.

Soon the hashtag #transracial was trending." The Washington Post's Justin Wm. Moyer wrote "comparing Dolezal to Caitlyn Jenner found a home at the hashtag “#transracial,” but described it as "controversial." BET (Black Entertainment Television) published: "#transracial and #wrongskin were both trending on Twitter, drawing much comparison to the current trans movement reignited by Caitlyn Jenner’s (formerly Bruce Jenner) male-to-female transition."

In Rus
En 1922, a la postre de la Revolución rusa y la Marcha sobre Roma, el anarquista italiano Luigi Fabbri usó el término fascismo Rojo refiriéndose a los "comunistas bolcheviques" y acusó a un sector de los bolcheviques rusos de ser fascistas y de haber instalado una dictadura sobre el proletariado. En 1939, Otto Rühle escribió que el fascismo era meramente una copia del socialismo bolchevique; la Rusia leninista era el ejemplo para Italia y Alemania, que le eran esencialmente sus pares, y Rusia, Alemania e Italia compartían "un idéntico sistema de gobierno y estado."

Tanto Bruno Rizzi como Wilhelm Reich y Franz Borkenau pensaban que, bajo el liderazgo de Stalin, la Unión de Repúblicas Socialistas Soviéticas se habían vuelto un estado fascista rojo.

Por el contrario, Walter Laqueur describe el sistema comunista de la Unión de Repúblicas Socialistas Soviéticas apenas como "muy similar a un sistema fascista", indicando que sus semejanzas se limitaban a sus (1) sistema unipartidista; (2) doctrina oficial; (3) vital rol de la propaganda estatal; (4) policía política; (5) estridente nacionalismo; (6) oposición al modernismo cultural; y (7) instalación de una nueva nomenklatura de jerarcas. De aquí que en la URSS no se describía el fascismo al pueblo ni a los intelectuales, por el temor a que éstos se percatase que los sovéticos eran más análogos a los fascistas que a la "democracia burguesa."

Separadamente, Robert Conquest explica que otros comentaristas vieron las similitudes entre la Alemania nacionalsocialista fascista y el socialismo soviético, y que había en Berlín igual que en Moscú (a) un líder dominante, (b) un estado unipartidista, (c) una destrucción absoluta de la oposición, (d) un monopolio estatal de la coerción, (e) un dominio de la comunicación a las masas, (f) intolerancia a la ideología oficial, (g) persecución a quien se interpusiese al estado; en suma, ambos líderes buscaban el total control de sus respectivas sociedades.
