Fair point, I'm simply sick of this culture of capitalist grift, because without a doubt she will release a book and rake it in since she's a privileged white woman. If this shit was written about a black Canadian or indigenous person, none of you would give enough of a fuck to read the article.
If she weren't a reasonably good-looking young white woman, there would likely have been no article at all, and it's true that that's a demonstration of inequality . . . but at least she's using her pre-issued soapbox for something useful this time, and not to promote antivaxxer screeds or dodgy cosmetic treatments. And the articles about her will make even the bigots a little bit more likely to believe that a BIPOC person complaining about similar treatment at the hands of ICE is telling the truth.
I suspect the amount of money made off this—by anyone—is going to be very small unless she brings a successful lawsuit against the US government (unlikely). Like, all takings by everyone involved might buy dinner at a mid-priced restaurant level of money. There isn't enough material here for a book.
Thank you for helping me understand
Dude, I think you're saying this to the wrong people.
Are you saying you Canadians don't care about marginalized minorities?
Are you ok? Can you even read? Maybe try Twitter if you really want to antagonize people and get into some useless arguments.
