Guest Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 I fed poor children lalalalalala Africa is not just poverty, just go to Gabon to see millionaires I knew a girl from there she told me she owned a few villas. I think it's the 2nd richest country in Africa, there's also another country that's getting big with movies, I think Nigeria, very very very successful in movies, they call it Nollywood. Okay, so let's stop with thinking Africa = poor children, no schools, no water. Of course in that continent there are many many problems honey, but it's not just a deserted area with poor people trying to find food. There are rich wealthy cities, beautiful cities, beautiful areas to see, and farmers, fishermen, different industries. Many have an issue with corrupted politicians, dictators, kingdoms etc... But it's so tiring to hear people the first thing they say about Africa "ohhhh i helped built schools!!!! yeah poor children :(" shut the **** up, open your eyes a little bit.

streamstarcrossed 409 Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 She has a history of lashing out when she’s corrected on sensitive topics - See her response to the half breed Native American garments debate - and that’s not a good look, especially when a lot of those people responding are fans trying to keep her from embarrassing herself. But she’s also an easy target too. Cause it’s so “funny” to troll and attack a 75 year old online. I get her point but this was messy lol. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HuffsAhoy 7,433 Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 The best response would have been not responding at all. I feel her anger though, the woke mob is out of control nowadays. You remind me that it's such a wonderful thing to love. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel her anger though, the woke mob is out of control nowadays. I feel they was a need to correct her whether the mistake was genuine or out of ignorance because there's already an annoying trend in Western media where they fail to showcase the individuality of the different countries and a cultural backgrounds that make up Africa as a continent. Instead they act like its one coutry with a singular experience,culture and background and that simply isn't the case. Therefore we don't want to see an account with millions of followers ignorantly or mistakenly fueling that trend and since she's such an advocate, she should understand this. It wasn't that deep, she could have just acknowledged her mistake and kept it pushing instead of yelling at everyone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is literally helping no one Not to mention that the west has the power to help the less fortunate but gets lynched by its own people for doing so, tragic.
