If you thought former Hillary Clinton campaign social media guru Emmy Bengtson’s “F*ck. Off.” message to the NRA was brilliant, then you’ll be really impressed by this offering following the death of 22-year-old Otto Warmbier, who had only recently returned to the United States after being tortured and put into a coma by the North Koreans:
interesting how some people (rightfully) decrying Warmbier's death at hands of NK are real quiet about black people's deaths at hands of US

How much time have you got?
Do yourself a favor and google "false equivalence" – thanks!

If you automatically think "who can I call racist" in response to tragedies, you're a very well trained dog. https://t.co/NYj0DZul0J

Comparing what they do in North Korea to America? You have to be insane or just an idiot.

that's false equivalence, at best…insanity, at worst
p.s. just bc Otto's death doesnt align to ur agenda,theres no need to be so tactless
