00:00:00 --> 00:00:03
			I don't want to give this person
any attention, but I just want to
		
00:00:03 --> 00:00:07
			point out one thing. When you say
that you are not politically savvy
		
00:00:07 --> 00:00:12
			enough to address something, when
you have a following of 10 million
		
00:00:12 --> 00:00:16
			people, this is what you sound
like. In fact, I can't even say
		
00:00:16 --> 00:00:19
			the word genocide, because I just
I don't know there are, there are
		
00:00:19 --> 00:00:22
			bad things in the world, and there
are good things in the world. And
		
00:00:22 --> 00:00:26
			I can't really speak to whether or
not it is good or bad. If people
		
00:00:26 --> 00:00:30
			of different races are forced to
use different streets, are forced
		
00:00:30 --> 00:00:32
			to be in different schools, are
forced to drink from different
		
00:00:32 --> 00:00:38
			water fountains, I spend hours and
hours looking at trends and sounds
		
00:00:38 --> 00:00:42
			for trends so that my content goes
more viral. So I can't really
		
00:00:42 --> 00:00:46
			speak on whether or not mass
graves of children and their
		
00:00:46 --> 00:00:52
			families that have all been found
surrounding hospitals in ghaza,
		
00:00:53 --> 00:00:58
			where patients still have
catheters in their corpses, where
		
00:00:58 --> 00:01:02
			children were found with close
range gunshot wounds, where men
		
00:01:02 --> 00:01:06
			and women had their hands tied
behind their backs, were
		
00:01:06 --> 00:01:10
			blindfolded, some were found
beheaded. Others were found to
		
00:01:10 --> 00:01:15
			have suffocated to death. I don't
know enough about politics to
		
00:01:15 --> 00:01:18
			speak on whether or not that's
right and influence the 10 million
		
00:01:18 --> 00:01:23
			people that follow me. That video
probably took hours for her to
		
00:01:23 --> 00:01:26
			make, even if it was just a few
minutes with the editing, the
		
00:01:26 --> 00:01:29
			getting feedback from people, the
wondering if it's sincere enough,
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:33
			was the tone sincere enough? Did
she cover all her grounds that
		
00:01:33 --> 00:01:36
			those hours could have simply been
used to read it's been seven
		
00:01:36 --> 00:01:39
			months. There are so many
Palestinian journalist accounts
		
00:01:39 --> 00:01:42
			that you can follow and see and
you can see with your eyes, which
		
00:01:42 --> 00:01:48
			is why there is a global uprising
to scream against genocide. I'm so
		
00:01:48 --> 00:01:51
			grateful to be a part of a
generation where we are holding
		
00:01:51 --> 00:01:54
			people to account and they have to
apologize, because otherwise it
		
00:01:54 --> 00:01:58
			affects them financially. And
while she said she's so sorry that
		
00:01:58 --> 00:02:01
			the video that she put up
initially might have been taken
		
00:02:01 --> 00:02:06
			out of context. One, what other
context is there? What other
		
00:02:06 --> 00:02:09
			context is there for? Let them eat
cake? And two, even with that
		
00:02:09 --> 00:02:13
			apology, the video is still up,
despite the fact that millions of
		
00:02:13 --> 00:02:16
			people are pointing out how
disgusting the concept is,
		
00:02:17 --> 00:02:19
			obviously because you're making
bank off it,
		
00:02:20 --> 00:02:24
			but it really shows where your
care is. It's not about how your
		
00:02:24 --> 00:02:27
			followers feel, it's about
		
00:02:28 --> 00:02:30
			what you are profiting from. From.
