gave me a chance to revisit my post here as well, and not much has changed with the left since that time
here it is:
larry wilmore previously of comedy central mocked otto claiming his frat boy privilege (read white privilege) doesn't work in NK, making fun of his name and asserting frat boys are Americas most annoying export
otto was under great duress at his trial, probably beaten and threatened and abused constantly and was crying - wilmore just mocked him calling him otto von crybaby-
why?
because he was white and fit wilmore's own racism -
the sort of person wilmore makes up to hate, upon whom he has projected all the aspects of some fantasized privilege - someone with the immutable characteristic of being born white. Wilmore didn't see him as a fellow human, no just someone deserving a comeuppance and that its time to show otto the real world that I, a black, lives with in America, where your white privilege shields you
"its hard for me to have much sympathy for this guy and his crocodile tears" says Wilmore. why? because otto is an other
Huffington Post blogger La Sha was right to the point:
Specifically, his “white male privilege.”
Warmbier’s birth as a white male gave him a shield from justice in the United States. “That kind of reckless gall is an unfortunate side effect of being socialized first as a white boy, and then as a white man in this country,”
they and others have lust for mob "social" justice against some people with certain characteristics (white) upon whom they can pour out all their hatred and racism.
similarly the left's hatred was on full "non-justice" display against the duke lacrosse team
not real justice, not as individuals, no, the left's group "social justice"
