It’s infuriating, but it’s not that much money. Imagine all those people on average sent $10. 15,000 people max. Thats like, one small fucking town in America. One small, very red, white and racist town. It doesn’t represent all of the USA.
The video does not include her saying it to the kid directly, but to the man (presumably father) confronting her, multiple times. Then she admits that yeah she did call the child the n-word because "he acts like one".
She proudly and defiantly doubled and tripled down on it while being openly filmed. All she had to do was move on and nobody would have been the wiser. In a normal world, this would be a clear case of "play stupid games, win stupid prizes".
I truly hope the (presumably) dad also has some fundraising going on.
Not being protective of telling children anything such, but I have used ethnic slurs in the past, especially when answering other insults. And when you were being unjustly attacked, then slipped and said something bad, and then are being attacked for that too as if that justified the beginning, then it's a natural reaction to double down on the unfortunate words too.
So, eh, depends on the situation. I think I have right to answer people attacking me and putting me into a fight-or-flight situation with any words, they'll still be in the wrong. But if this is not what happened, then using someone's race as an argument worthy of repetition should be punished.
I mean, I am sorry, but doxxing her SSN is a pretty disproportionate response lmao
Why? The N-word in this context seems much more harmful.
