Harris to swear in new senators who *GASP* won't...
« on: January 03, 2025, 08:06:28 AM »
pronounce her name correctly!

OMG! Such horrific violence! They should be arrested!

Of course, Time doesn't give a flying *expletive deleted*ck that for years American news outlets, pundits, and politicians have been pronouncing Donald Trump's name incorrect as Hitler, which helped directly lead to TWO verified assassination attempts.

That's just peachy.

And of course, nothing about Joe Biden routinely pronouncing her name incorrectly.

I seem to recalled she herself pronounced it the "racist" way before switching to the new improved non-"racist "way.

Of course she did. But she was informed by the woke brigade that she was in danger of being canceled because she wasn't using approved pronunciations.

When Harris was first nominated I heard a lot of black people online calling her Camilla. I guess they didn't know they were committing the crime of Aggravated Disrespecting of a Woman of Color.
