Re: Woman fired for Aids Africa tweet.
or being white in africa, because it likely means you come from a privileged class that has access to education, healthcare, etc highly reduces your chances of getting aids? We even see a similar split in the US unfortunately. And imagine in a place like Africa where the disparities between such groups is much more intense that such is also true and to a much greater degree.
Still something pretty ****ed up to joke about and rather insane that a PR professional would simply broadcast it on the net, regardless if she is racist or simply has a rather perverse and morbid sense of humor.
Then she says in a jocular manner that she cannot get AIDS because she is white. In this latter part of the comment we can clearly see that she is presuming that she as a White/Caucasian human cannot get AIDS and by taking out the white factor out of South Africa we find ourselves with the predominantly African factor.
