    Candace Owents: Blackout

    So I went ahead and ordered a copy of Candace Owen's new book. I've read some good things about it and decided to check it out. Are you guys going to check it out?

    She's just going to be regurgitating Dinesh D'Souza's ahistorical propaganda, so what's the point in buying her book?

    Yes this scam artist is selling a lot of BS to people who want to feel justified in racism. Thanks for the pathetic attempt to sell more of her idiotic book.

    What is your proof that she's a fraud?

    Probably the fact that she thinks there was no racism until Trump was elected. But she literally won a lawsuit when she was 14 with the help of the NAACP for $35,000 because of racism.

    Imagine the response people like her would get if Americans didn't have a 10minute attention span.

    What's equally bad, or maybe worse, is it takes a minute or two to read through the first few results from a google search to see why she is a fraud but so many people are too lazy to do even that.

    Grifter tries to grift left-leaning people and utterly fails because generally... left-leaning people are more sceptical and think through what they're being told. Proceeds to do a complete reversal and grifts conservatives instead as all they want is confirmation that it is okay to hate. Massive success.

    Why when you could just stare at the sun? You'd hurt your eyes and everyone would think you're an idiot either way, but my way is free.

    She makes a living claiming that racism doesn't exist, but made her initial money by suing her college for racism. If that doesn't make you reconsider how full of BS she is, please DM me as I have some beautiful bridges for sale around the country.

    She's like the republican Anita Sarkeesian. She couldn't have the success Anita has grifting the left so she went for the right. I'm not giving her any money.

    Skeptical? "All women must be believed" is the mantra of those people and you say they're the skeptical ones? Riiiiiight.....

    I've 100% seen her say it exists so you can stop lying. She says it doesn't exist to the extent people today are claiming it does or that the impact isn't nearly what is claimed. You're a fool to say it doesn't exist. It just exists equally from all races.

    Discussion about book by political commentator descends into discussion of her politics, I for one am shocked.

    I think Candace Owens is definitely a grifter and acts as a token supporting racist sentiment, but I would have to push back on this claim a bit. From what I'm aware, and from what Global News has reported, she had said:

    Quote Originally Posted by Candace Owens

    And then tried to qualify it by saying:

    Quote Originally Posted by Candace Owens

    I would assume a reasonable person would be saying that Hitler, like any world leader, has the capacity to make their country great if they pursue the correct policies. I don't think what she's saying is that Hitler was - in reality - a good man or was trying to defend the extermination, but was trying to construct a strawman against globalism and push her very strange idea of what nationalism is and went to what she believed the most well-known example of a globalist.

    However, I could be giving her way too much credit and she could have just been showing her power level for a moment.

    Much like Diamond and Silk, Owens realized she could make more money spouting conservative propoganda. All 3 were pro-Obama/anti-Trump until the realization sunk in that the money was to be made supporting Trump/conservatives.
