The image was destined for history books. It defined America. It deserved a Pulitzer Prize.
They really want to fabricate a happening out of nothing. "Crazy lady takes the safest ride of her life on DC metro," isn't even interesting let alone historic.
This is an unreal amount of projection and orchestrated PR work.
Edit:
People online compared his sister to Rosa Parks but Joseph shook his head. Rosa Parks had agency. She chose to make a stand. His sister was just riding the Orange Line.
“They say that ‘We love you, we got you,’ but the reality is that this woman is homeless,” he said. “Are they willing to sacrifice and say, ‘Let’s help her get a place?’ Are they willing to do that?”
“The more views they get, they’re getting money.”
Her brother is absolutely correct. They want to use this lady for money or for activism. They don't give a shit about her beyond that.

This applies to all their mascots. Just take their most notorious la cause celebre, Saint George of Fentanyl. Drug addicted criminals meeting violent ends is a daily and completely unremarkable occurrence. That particular situation only blew up because it could be used to go after Whitey.
George Floyd didn't meet a violent end. Anyone with a basic understanding of human anatomy knows that. Floyd was already saying "I can't breathe" before the infamous restraint because he had overdosed on two different illegal drugs that cause cardiopulmonary failure. Him saying he couldn't breathe was the proof the police were not responsible, because he physically could not have spoken if mechanical force was preventing him from inhaling and exhaling.
Yeah I suppose violent wasn't the word I was going for. It came to mind since junkies are as likely to die from bum fights as they are to OD. The point is these types tend to die in a way that no one knows or cares about unless it proves useful for race communists. Floyd would have ended up as another unclaimed body at the morgue had he ODed under any other circumstances.
Her brother is NOT correct. Rosa Parks was picked after some other pregnant ~15 year old did the same thing a few weeks prior, but it was decided that an unwed teenager wasn't good optics.

I don't understand what you're trying to say. Rosa Parks being staged or not doesn't change the fact that Parks was a deliberate participant. If anything, it makes his point even stronger. His sister didn't ask to be involved in some social cause. It was forced upon her by the press/activists. The only way your post makes sense is if you think they picked Rosa Parks for that task and she couldn't say no.
Right. But how does that contradict the original point? Which was Rosa Parks had a choice in the matter. If she chose to stand up or she plotted for weeks to plan optics, that just reaffirms that she had agency in making herself newsworthy unlike this woman. So I'm lost why brimshae thinks there's a contradiction there.

claudette colvin who is now listed as an 'African American civil rights activist' hilariously enough when the movement made it clear they didn't want the association when it mattered.

Waaaait, i thought rosa parks was some ordinary lady thrust into prominence just like this woman and anyone pointing out she was part of a concerted protest effort was a dirty racist. To say nothing about what a bad person you are for bringing up Claudette Colvin.

She was selected over the unwed teen mother who was already doing it before it was cool.
Rosa Parks was coached, and it wasn't her first attempt.
