She's apparently faking, which is even worse. I think she's still probably really dumb, I think that's genuine, but she's apparently pretty educated, and not "ghetto." She's a phony, for extra DEI points. Lying grifter, which is even worse.
She's a lawyer, has a business degree, went to private school, etc. Not saying those people can't be ghetto - we do see the genuine item not too infrequently, after all - but her thing is seemingly an act. She's playing the part, as a good Democrat Woman of Color.
Her parents are loaded. She went to private school and Ivy League. She does ghetto cosplay for the D base. The D's demand you not only stay on the plantation, but put on an accent.
Smacks of a minstrel show, tbh. Something's deeply inauthentic about it; one of the multicultural elite, who usually plays with the upper class whites, playing herself off as lower class black. It strikes me as layers of masking, which is why I was asking where her authentic self is-- because I don't see it.
Judging by the clip you can tell the calculation works. You just need brown skin and a negro cadence to your voice, then say whatever you want like a sassy momma and significant numbers of people are conditioned to whoop along like it's a signal to party.

Is the act the ghetto accent, or 'playing white?'
Where is the authentic self? (Other than the lack of empathy, I mean.)
