"Young black kids in the bronx don't even know what a computer is" -NY governor

[REdefinition]

As bad as that comment is, she was actually trying to advocate for expanding tech opportunities to undeserved communities. That won't matter in public opinion but it should at least be noted.

“Right now, we have young Black kids growing up in the Bronx who don't even know what the word computer is. They don't know, they don't know these things,"

This fukking crypt keeper looking bytch has some nerve! The fact that she said young black kids don’t know the WORD computer makes it far worse. Not that they don’t understand the technology or don’t have access to a laptop or desktop at home this heifer said they don’t know the WORD.

Let that sink in.

New York Governor Kathy Hochul is facing backlash for saying that black children in the Bronx don't know the word "computer".

"Right now, we have young black kids growing up in the Bronx who don't even know what the word 'computer' is," she said. "They don't know these things."

The Democrat made the comments while speaking to a technology panel in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles.

Ms Hochul later said that she misspoke and regrets it.

She was at the Milken Institute Global Conference on Monday to discuss New York

She was in Beverly Hills panhandling for money for state colleges and universities. She did so on the backs of black children from the Bronx.

CACing out is nasty work

Does she think those kids don’t talk to their parents, or have tv, or electronics at home? They are not living in tents.

What do you get?

They probably can’t type a paper or operate a desktop computer

The Bronx is different breh. Kids these days are outside 24/7

Democrats were the main southerners who own slaves. It’s only in the mid 1900s did they shift to “helping” minorities.

But that was hilarious. She better stay away from fordham though
