I don’t know. I’m not talking about Zim. Maybe he would be welcomed too. I’d buy him a beer.

Oddly, because she is so feels compelled to make clear that she is “highly educated” I’m reluctant to believe she is very perceptive. Perceptive persons will perceive the error of announcing that fact about themselves for fear of being mocked or misunderstood. She is a haughty, prideful person who is annoyed because she missed a few facts in her rush to judgement. Her biggest fault is that she judged this young man based on his race and the race of his attackers. (And yet, she makes no move to apologize.)

Possible conclusion #2: The sources you rely upon for accurate news reporting are disgusting, lying cesspools of propaganda, and all your alleged education completely failed to equip you with the means of discerning that dynamic. Indeed, while YOU are mistakenly relying upon THEM to provide accurate reporting, it is THEY relying upon you being a sucker and providing THEM with your attention and perhaps your subscription.

Bears repeating!

Those cases are very rare though. Yes it does happen, but not nearly enough. Reading through the comments on her page, I saw that some were saying “I learned a lot”- and knowing progressives by and large, they do not mean that, a d only day that when their arguments falls apart, in order to save face. Then the next case comes up, and they are right back convicting whitey again, facts be damned.

I was generalizing, I didn’t mean every single progressive never learns, no more tha I would literally mean that the sun rose and set.

Having Daddy send one to Cardozo School Of Law (at $50k a year) does not make one educated.

Glad Sarah is finally realizing she doesn't know everything.

If you just learned today that the men Kyle shot were both white, then you are neither highly educated or anywhere near reasonably perceptive.

Honestly, the cause of her confusion is probably because she listened to the President of the United States.

I give her a bit of credit because she seems to have figured it out by using her own eyes and ears.

SMH over the responses to the young woman's awake. Rather than berating her we should rejoice that the scales are lifting from her eyes. A start.

Look at the stats to her post:

4,723 likes

715 re-tweets...that's akin to a telephone tree, spreading out to reach others.

187 tweets quoting her post. Mustard seeds have been planted

I don't doubt her statement at all.

Yes, she is probably "highly educated" which is not the same as "well educated."

Colleges award degrees all the time to poorly educated people.

I posted it because she was obviously opening eyes and ears.

That it makes a difference to her tells me she is racist...

Dollars to donuts, the George Floyd buddy who is threatening the jurors probably thinks Rittenhouse shot some brothers as well.

I wouldn’t publicly boast about being either, but smart people are surprised by things all the time. I don’t think it’s about education because these things aren’t taught in schools, but people who do a lot to inform themselves still live in bubbles that inconvenient facts don’t penetrate.

“I am highly educated ...”

So she went to school a lot. It certainly doesn’t mean that she’s educated.

BLM has threatened to riot if Kyle is acquitted, and if Mayor Adams reinstates the plain clothes details in New York City.

Good point.

I was bracing for riots if acquitted, unseemly celebrations if not. But if the victims are white, it might just engender a big yawn. Sure big media love it, but the overall BLM populace might not even care.

Because if they were black they would’ve been “murdered” because he hates blacks.

That’s why.
