As a Nigerian-immigrant in North America, I have come to one conclusion: Social Justice, wokeness and progressivism can ONLY exist in a developed, liberal and first-world nation/region where there are very few existential threats and where the purposeless masses in urban areas have to create some form of ideology to fill the void in their lives. That is why it makes no sense and destroys that society. That is also why non-western countries and immigrants mostly tend to hate social justice and wokeness more than the native citizens.

“We need to rewrite the constitution”
“I don’t know the constitution”

Holy shit

[UnprofessionalPhilosopher]

I'm Venezuelan living in USA (5 years), America is a highly inclusive country where you can find people from all over the world working together to make a better live for themselves

“I am only saying the government is racist but I have zero understanding of US policy” well played sir

"Racism isn't dead, but it is on life support - kept alive by politicians, race hustlers, and people who get a sense of superiority by denouncing others as 'racist'" ~Thomas Sowell

[shootshescores]

Kid steps off a boat from communist Venezuela and is enrolled at Berkeley and America is racist. We are doomed.

[GroundedTech]

Hold on. He thinks capitalism is the issue and he's from Venezuela?!?

[whatutalknboutwillis]

Let me get this right, we have a young man from Venezuela, who was accepted into our University system. Then proceeds to tell all of us that the capitalist system we live in, which provided him the opportunity to go to school is racist. My mind is completely blown trying to grasp this concept.

[chubbuck]

Not just the lack of critical thinking skill, but the outright RESISTANCE to critical thinking skills being spoon fed to these students, is astonishing!!

[rob]

When racism is everywhere, it’s nowhere. Truly wonderful hearing these children talk for 20 minutes, yet say absolutely nothing…

[chasingsafety]

I admire the girl for attempting to think critically. Being wrong is okay, and realizing/admitting that you need to justify your thinking is the first step towards finding truth.

[danielmarante]

I'm puzzled that a fellow Venezuelan can so harshly condemn the country that opened the very doors which Venezuela closed to him.

[komoleeray]

" America is institutionally racist because of capitalism, colonialism", , , "Name 3 laws in America that are currently racist ", , " i'm not from this country..i don't know many laws..." love the talent and intelligence our universities are producing

"The problem isn't that Johnny can't read. The problem isn't even that Johnny can't think. The problem is that Johnny doesn't know what thinking is; he confuses it with feeling."

-- Thomas Sowell

[coolcapr]

So weird that someone comes from a Socialist country to a Capitalist country, then start blaming all your problems on Capitalism

[MRKYootube]

The kid leaving when he saw the other one actually having to back up his claim 😂

[bombazine]

The irony of coming to the US from Venezuela and saying our system needs needs to be destroyed and history re written, whilst not being able to say that even 1 law is racist?🙄

[limemason]

He wants to "reform" the constitution, yet admits he doesn't know it. Astonishing

[PeJota]

I feel bad for that Venezuelan kid because every time he speaks it's abundantly clear he has no clue what he's saying. He's just regurgitating ideological talking points.

Also, these kids are minorities/immigrants attending a prestigious university, freely studying to presumably have a better, more successful future... yet they feel that US is so racist it's almost irreparable. In an absolutely racist country these kids wouldn't have any of these opportunities.

[DrBeauHightower]

A venezuelan complaining about capitalism while living in America is wild.
