    • I'd sympathize if looting was for food. But she's basically saying black are entitled to loot for phones, flatscreeens and gold chains because they 'need' it.hotroddy
    • 'gap b/w blacks and the rest of the world'. What planet does she live on???hotroddy
    • most countries don't have a monopoly boardhotroddy

    • You've missed the point completely, hotroddy. She's not condoning looting, she's explaining it.ben_
    • You don't have to agree with her, but you're misrepresenting what she's saying.ben_
    • Yep. Completely missing the point of ‘why’ over ‘what’. She never said anything about looters being entitled.mort_
    • And sympathy won’t help anyone. It’s empathy that’s called for here.mort_
    • The right only hears what they what to hear, they only see what they want to see. Then Fox & Friends, Breitbart, Alex Jones and Trump confirm it all for them.utopian
    • Believe me, I'm all to familiar w her mentality. A mentality thats plagued Venezuela for last 20 years.hotroddy
    • Same mentality that succumbed their people to eat from dumbsters: https://www.instagra…hotroddy
    • same mentality that beat up on this white chick https://www.instagra…hotroddy
    • she proposes no solution only justifies the 'take'hotroddy
    • hotroddy, are you a poor black woman living in USA? if not, how are you familiar with her mentality?Milan
    • So if we're to assume you have the same level of knowledge of Venezuelans as you do about African Americans, then we can draw the conclusion that you don't knowben_
    • what you're talking about.ben_
    • many Venezuelans are African American:
      Ancestors of African slaves brought to the Americas.      hotroddy
    • Living in the US, We can draw the conclusion that I'm probably know more about the African American experience (across the americas) then living in Canadahotroddy
    • No, living in the USA doesn't automatically make you knowledgeable on anything. And what you're saying proves that you aren't.ben_
    • I wouldn't expect a canadian to understand the complexities of class struggle.hotroddy
    • No, we have many of these issues too. But now you’re conflating “class” with “race” and only because you’ve accepted that an entire race is of a different classben_
    • it's the same logic that so many people use to deflect racism - "If they want to have more money they just need to pull up their socks and get to work like theben_
    • rest of us". It's tiring and transparent and makes it look like you've never left your city let alone your country or continent.ben_
    • And then you say I don't understand the "complexities of class struggle" yet you can't even acknowledge the nuance of what the woman in the video above isben_
    • expressing. Ever punch a wall when you're angry? Did it help?ben_
