It was AI!
Which she has now backed down on and has apologised.
Apologised for being a Republican puppet? I mean, regurgitating Republican talking points is pretty disappointing for anyone, let alone an American minority, let alone a president of the NAACP. 🤦
Is she? I couldn't find her affiliation (Wiki and some news articles about her). Bizarre she came out with such ridiculous stereotypes knowing that she's associated with the NAACP.
Likely an unknowing Republican puppet.
She's swallowed their propaganda BS hook, line and sinker.
One thing I’ve come to realize is most people who who disparage others are simply directing eyes away from themselves. Projecting. Casting illusions, and what I mean isn’t necessarily what they’re saying is or isn’t true (though often it is maybe a truth or half-truth), it’s simply meant to cast the illusion that they are somehow “better” than they actually are.
I’m trying to fathom at how much better off we’d be , collectively speaking, if people who do this would spend a little time going within and figuring out how to be a bit better today than they were, yesterday, instead of trying to figure out how to look better, externally.
I hope that makes sense. I need a nap.
Edited for capitalization and autocorrect.
It's not very helpful to deny the lived experiences of poor black peeps my dude. Don't use republicans as a shield to ignore problems real people are having.
Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realise that it was all those immigrants breaking into people's houses and raping them which is why black people are poor.
Fuck off with your Republican bullshit. Fuck right off and never come back. Go fuck off to some shithole country as you people like to call them.
Find someone else to be your dude, because we want nothing to do with your xenophobia.
I didn't say any of that.
She did, and you're arguing with someone saying she's wrong, meaning you agree with her.
Pick a side. You keep saying "migrants are good" and "this crazy woman who hates migrants while saying Republican speaking points is right and we need to listen to her"
No. Fuck her racist bs. And if you didn't read that right, I'll bold the important part.
Fuck her racist bullshit.
I'm arguing that she can have flawed opinions and valid complaints. If she'd said something about white people I doubt anyone would bat an eye - criticism of that would be characterized as tone policing
There is room to dislike racist ideas while understanding and having compassion for the issues that are at the root of those ideas.
Blaming AI will be the thing to do from now on. Any time anyone says anything atrocious- "It was AI."
Is there a way to distinguish one from the other, for average joes?
How does one have AI speak for you in a zoom meeting?
It seems worth the risk…
