She ****s on civil rights issues for right wing money, she's trash. She's a political mercenary basically, will say whatever you want her to say as long as she gets some money from it and the Right Wing love to throw money at her.

If there was more money to be made from the left, she'd be screeching Black Lives Matters from the rooftops.

You thinking money is her main motivation is absurd. Truth be told, she'd probably be making more if she aligned herself with the left.

She's an independent woman of colour who asks the questions others wont. She should be celebrated for some of the questions she poses like 'why did Chicago get worse under Obama' - 'why is the illiteracy rate so high in young black boys in poor areas of america' - 'why is the education system failing black america on the whole'. Democratic ruling hasn't done much for the black communities, and she calls this out.

The right wing offers a **** ton more money than the left. Right wing media is a quick way to get rich because as long as you sing from the hymn sheet, you'll have a place and a rabid fanbase ready to be told what you want to hear.

Nigel Farage has tried multiple times to get in on it, Katie Hopkins came close (and still makes bank here), a lot of right wing youtubers do it because it's an easy way to make money.

The left wing doesn't have the same amount of vast wealth powering it's media, it doesn't have the same resources to shower on mouth pieces. Being a right wing commentator in the US is a quick way to get rich, to make out the opposite is just plain false.

As for Candace's arguments, you can blame an economy that only truly benefits the ultra rich for all that, the same people who pay Candace a fortune to slate the other side while ignoring that it's the system itself that the right wing seeks to uphold that limits the potential of the poor and minorities.

So she's making money, i mean that's what we all strive for right?! I can't believe you're comparing her to Hopkins though.

Or you can blame everything but the actual problem i guess.

With the actual problem being a huge disparity of opportunities between the rich and poor as well as white people and black people. You can't blame Obama for that, it's been part of the US' DNA since the beginning and the republicans have sought to keep that disparity alive because most millionaires and billionaires tend to be republican in order to protect their own interests.


Making money by making the lives of people less fortunate than you harder is reprehensible and she's paid to underplay the civil rights movement of a race who doesn't want to be shot to death by the people who are meant to protect them. She's very much like Hopkins in that she's a mouthpiece that spouts off whatever the right wants her to say.

And she poses the question, why are gangs (mostly) in the black communities of the US shooting each other on a daily basis, and what is being done about it?

She is nothing like Hopkins, Hopkins does say outrageous **** in order to provoke and garner attention. Hopkins talks a load of rubbish, Candace actually makes some very good points. Are you saying she is incapable of thinking for herself? That she is just a puppet for the right? If so your ignorance is utterly astounding!

Shoving words down my throat that clearly don't represent what I'm saying won't work. She is choosing to be a political mercenary for monetary gain, just like Hopkins and any other mouthpiece.

As for your question, the answer will always lie in the socioeconomic issues that have plagued the US since day 1. Ignoring the divide and the effect it has won't get you a different answer.
