Not a single word from Jimmy Kimmel. Or 99% of the American media.
The liberals and American media have no idea where Zimbabwe is. They don’t know who Mugabe is. They don’t know about the organized land expropriation from white farmers in that country, with land given to blacks who don’t know how to farm the land.
All they know is that a single American hunter, killed a single lion on a hunting trip, and may have violated some Zimbabwean game and hunting regulations. This is what has them outraged. There is no outrage about any human rights violations in Zimbabwe. They only care about the killing of the lion on a hunting trip, because the media decided to push that story hard.
That’s all these people know about Zimbabwe is that a lion was killed on a hunting trip.
Just noting, very few comments on this thread. Yet there are many comments on threads discussing the Cecil the lion story.
Human rights violations in Zimbabwe just don’t resonate with people the way that alleged violations of hunting and game regulations do.
The victims of human rights violations in Zimbabwe are now largely black as most of the whites have been driven out. And we all know that #thoseblacklivesdontmatter.
