re: Paraguayan senator may have gone overboard with the racist language

She apologized sort of

quote:

She said she regretted some, not all, of her racist remarks

Nah, frick all that. What an absolute arse she's made of herself and given the response by the Paraguayan government, her career is finished

Amarilla, a member of Paraguay's Radical Liberal Party, called on Mbappé to say sorry for calling her a "despicable woman who is unworthy of office" and accused him of sexism.

"My posts were written in the heat of the moment," she said. "My mixed-race blood -- the beautiful blend of Indigenous and Spanish heritage that runs through my veins -- was boiling.

"Later, I regretted responding with the same insults that I myself have received, because I too have been looked down upon for being dark-skinned, Latin American and, as they call us, sudacas.

"I realised I was repeating the very behaviour that I despise, so I deleted the post," she added. "I understand that it upset you, because it was humiliating.

"Now I expect you to do the same: withdraw your remarks and apologise to me. I will not tolerate your aggression. You have no idea who I am and you have no right to say that I AM A DESPICABLE WOMAN, UNWORTHY OF THE OFFICE I HOLD.

"This is gender-based violence, plain and simple," she said. "It is political violence against a woman who reached her position through the votes of her people. "Retract your remarks, honour your French citizenship and apologise to me. Otherwise, I may begin legal proceedings on the grounds of gender-based violence."

This was her response to Mbappe, which was totally fair on his part. He would clearly make a better politician as well

quote:

“Madame Celeste Amarilla, you are a despicable woman and unworthy of your position. You do not represent Paraguay, that country which has sweated passion and honour throughout the competition,” he wrote on social media.

Through your recklessness and your ?brazen racism, the entire world has already forgotten the journey and the historic effort that your players accomplished during this World Cup, making way ?for an incompetent woman who gives the worst possible image of her country.”

Which part is racist?

Maybe the part where she calls him a monkey growing up sucking coconuts and learning from chimps?

You’re too dumb to argue with right now but I hope that gets better for you because life is hard when you’re that stupid.

Even she admitted she was being racist, dipshit

Is it racist if she’s talking about a white player?

If yes, why? If no, you can’t stop yourself from associating black dudes with monkeys for some reason - that’s fricked up bro ;)

Because clearly she thinks like you and believes black people resemble monkeys.

Zero way for you escape the fact you’ve just acknowledged this. If we replace chimpanzee with another animal, say flamingos, in her statement, is it racist still?

Stop trying to convince the rest of us black people are monkeys you racist fagot ;)

I’m asking you, because you’re clearly in agreement that her comment was racist. I don’t think it as racist at all - unless of course you, and obviously her, subscribe to the belief black people are chimps.

Can’t believe you came in trying to shame people for their brazen racism on this site and within like 3 posts you’re just stunting on all of us by insisting we all acknowledge black people are chimps.

Much respekt

The funny thing is some posters will see this and still say she's not racist.
