Democratic governor Kathy Hochul was forced to issue a groveling apology after she suggested that black children in New York do not know what computers are.

Hochul spoke in California at the Milken Institute Global Conference on Monday, claiming she would enable a more diverse tech workforce.

During her speech, the out-of-touch Democrat declared, “Right now we have, you know, young black kids growing up in the Bronx who don’t even know what the word ‘computer’ is.”

“They don’t know, they don’t know these things. And I want the world opened up to all of them,” she added.

Following a massive backlash, Hochul attempted to retract the remarks, saying, “I misspoke, and I regret it.”

“Of course, Black children in the Bronx know what computers are.”

Marches would be happening, buildings burned, etc......yet it was a dim so not a word or building torched.

[Leep]

Okkk,it’s generational democratery that slips out once in awhile.

I’m impressed a dim would apologize for making a mistake.
Wasn’t aware they were aware they could make a mistake ..much less admit it to it and apologize for it.
I’m ste her apology wasn’t politically motivated,too.

Misspoke = Lied

Media password for BS and the democrats have a lot of it.

Nah, the left can say whatever they want and it’s a-ok with th3 media and with the mi origins that they constantly degrade.

“Right now we have, you know, young black kids growing up in the Bronx who don’t even know what the word ‘computer’ is.”

Just how long will blacks take insults like that and keep voting Democrat?

[oil_dude]

“The soft bigotry of low expectations”

[dfwgator]

Just how long will blacks take insults like that and keep voting Democrat?

Forever.

[libertylover]

If a Republican had said this the MSM would be calling for them to resign....................

No doubt.

[God luvs America]

another pasty white liberal racist- like all the rest

“Right now we have, you know, young black kids growing up in the Bronx who don’t even know what the word ‘computer’ is.”

It's probably true.

[ladyjane]

They may not know some words but they probably know the n and mf words.

[VanShuyten]

She just misspoke. She meant to say they can’t SPELL the word “computer”.

[The Mayor]

She’s deaf

[NorthMountain]

About 30 years ago, I lived in an area that was slowly being taken over by ghetto blacks. Where I come from, that kind of language is insulting, offensive, and likely to start a fight. For these ghetto blacks, that kind of language (even when shouted in a seemingly angry tone of voice) is what passes for a friendly greeting.

....and dumb...................

Hochul’s stupidity will force her to lay on a massive state
giveaway to Bronx kids.....to show she was “just kidding.”

“I misspoke, and I regret it.”

What does ‘misspoke’ mean? I used the wrong word? I added or left out a word? I did a Biden?

I’m pretty sure it doesn’t mean, “I said something that was untrue and stupid”.

[Red Badger]

She gets a pass from the MSM, they won’t report it, so the damage is minimal...................

[caww]

Democratic governor Kathy Hochul sees herself above the ordinary people...that's self evident whenever she openes her mouth.....plus she's a big time pay-to-play politician.

“Of course, Black children in the Bronx know what computers are.”

So she apologizes with, “ Black children in the Bronx are ok, It’s those little pickaninnies in West Virginia, Alabama, Georgia that don’t know what a computer is”.
