Yesterday I ran across this viral video several of the sites I check on a daily basis.
My contempt for the featured ranter has subsided somewhat since the first time I watched her video. I'm amused at the turn-around time this video took, from when it was posted to the time it was removed, copied, and made into an auto-tuned remix. The most entertaining of the lot:
This video exasperates me on many levels:
1. The way that YouTube's tagline (Broadcast Yourself) has been interpreted as encouragement to post these kind of rants on such a visible platform.
2. That (racist) people like this still exist in 21st-century America.
3. The blatant hypocrisy of what the woman says.
4. Lack of tact in regard to an increasingly devastating effects of the earthquake(s) and tsunami in Japan.
I could go on, but I'm all sorts of tired right now.
Angry Asian Man is much more articulate, and where I got both videos.
