It's probably a good thing for her HIV infected African rapists don't frequent this board or Twitter. We might actually get some social justice for once.
birdrussell said:Swaziland and Boatswaina have populations with almost a 3rd of whom are infected with HIV. No lie it's up there like 28% followed by a whole lot of other African countries. even the ones with "good" rates of HIV are at like 5% or 1 in 20. Now what business this chick had bringing this up in a tweet is beyond me. Was she planning on an unpretected gang bang when she hit the ground? What would lead her to believe she would be a candidate for HIV?
"Words cannot express how sorry I am, and how necessary it is for me to apologize to the people of South Africa, who I have offended due to a needless and careless tweet. There is an AIDS crisis taking place in this country, that we read about in America, but do not live with or face on a continuous basis. Unfortunately, it is terribly easy to be cavalier about an epidemic that one has never witnessed firsthand."
samsamsam said:I have been trying to figure out how old the trainwreck is. But I am guessing 40. You'd think there would be a little common sense but apparently she thinks she is funny like that church chick that got ex communicated.
Not the first time she has done stupid shit, duh.
In February 2012 Sacco Tweeted: 'I had a sex dream about an autistic kid last night.'
Then about 12 hours before the racist Tweet, she wrote: 'Weird German Dude: You're in first class. It's 2014. Get some deodorant' -Inner monologue as I inhale BO. Thank god for pharmaceuticals.'

She deserved to get fired for lacking the good judgement that someone in high level position needs to have. Completely unprofessional.

Apparently, the racist part is that a white person is bragging about her white privilege because white people are less likely to contract AIDs - she is gloating racially? Or something. Reminds me of being at an art gallery where all the art is New Age trash, but nobody says anything because if you speak against the herd you will likely be seen as poorly cultured, unable to comprehend the higher level meanings or simply jealous.
This incident signifies nothing. This woman has no history of anti-social commentary and ONE instance of poor judgment - on social media, no less. Should have been obvious to her, but...
People intensely lashing out against her are what they hate - rageful bigots casting about to find individuals to settle up the deficient moral accounts of "society," "men" or "white people." It can never be slaked because it originates from the complete inability of one to recognize their own anti-social and hateful thoughts and actions. If you don't wither in the face of the onslaught, you will be fine. These sorts of people are highly emotive and reactive. If you apologize/make amends too much, they will view you with deep suspicion.
Their tools of censorship, social ostracism and intense & withering judgment do nothing to help the problems they target or invent. It is one massive charade that exists so they never have to come to grips to the rage within. Admitting their issues means confronting their one true fear - they absolutely fear themselves.
Ok let's take the race context out of this & put it this way. Let's say if I tweeted something about going to Brazil, visiting some favelas in Rio, and then bragged about going back to my first world conditions as those poor bastards have to keep living in their meager surroundings followed by a "hah," while I'm a semi well-known person broadcasting this message over social media.
Whether it's a funny joke or not, it's rather gratuitously insensitive mocking others about their misfortunes yeah?

Agree on the last part but come on it shouldn't be a firing offense - at least in the supposedly 'free speech' US. Ughh. Gee sorry she hurt some people's feelings with a dumb comment, but we should all get over it.
America has become what the former Soviet states were back in the day with all their speech codes and 'what you can and cannot say'. It's just awful. Europe is even worse in terms of freedom of speech. If you sit back and think about it and compare it to what George Orwell wrote we're really not that far away from that sort of reality now.

The American government isn't arresting her for her tweet or punishing her. Free speech has always had consequences. The reason she was fired is because her company wanted to distance itself from her tweet. As a relatively vulnerable W2 employee, especially one that's a Director (non-leadership/not a C-level position), she should known better than to tweet inappropriate remarks using her real name. These low-grade hipster gossip blogs will publish this shit for easy page hits as Anonymous accurately wrote.
The fact that she works for a company that owns so many hipster/millenial brands means it's a given she would get axed. They got money at stake.
I don't care about her tweet nor am I offended by it, but I'm not the publicly traded company that employs her.
