More like shameless self-promotion on a non-political/religion topic.
It happens.

If someone is going to degrade anyone whether it be women or a race... they better be really fucking funny rather than just sound disrespectful and insulting so it can be seen as comedy. There is a real fine line.
I don't think that was really funny... it doesn't work and she doesn't pull it off.
Promoting your youtube isn't the same thing as asking for opinions.
"Self" promotion... Promoting "your" youtube... heeeeyyy wait a minute...
...You know this girl isn't me right? Just checking lol
Anyway many people have claimed that she's doing a parody of a "white girl" accent. But she grew up mostly around upper-class white kids, and if you watch her other videos, it's not that far from how she actually talks.

Lockit, of course comedy is subjective, and you're entitled to your opinion, but the vast majority of the millions of people who have seen it disagree with you. I personally have heard all of these except the cheetos one (I don't have my locs in yet.)
I'd also like to point out that all of these things are from her first hand experiences, many of them from a friend of 10 years. She's not even accusing the people of being racist, just of being unaware .
I like to compare it a massage therapist who's been abusing steroids. They don't MEAN to hurt you, but, y'know...
