To be completely honest, I really think Sarah, Kurt, Tanika and the lot are just plain ignorant. I am not originally from Australia but I’ve been living here for a couple years and I have to say I met a lot of people that are good people, but really ignorant when it comes to racial issues. If you ask them if they are racist they would say no because they have black friends and wish no harm on black people, but really they are racist because making jokes about them is racist, and when I say this to them they just say “aah it’s just a bit of aussie humour”. I feel like Sarah and co are just this type of Australian, the kind that hasn’t experienced the world outside of their little australian bubble filled with “aussie humour”.
I really think Tanika fails to see how calling herself Shaniqua is racist because she simply is not smart enough to put 2 and 2 together. What’s sad to me about the influencer world is that most influenceres are not bad people or don’t mean to be bad, they are just dumb and that’s dangerous
