nobody should DARE tell her she doesn't understand even when she's demonstrating her lack of understanding all over the Net
She's demonstrating her entitlement all over the net, too. I mean, I normally shy away from throwing the word "entitlement" around in fandom, because people usually use it to mean "daring to think other people ought to be polite to you" or "daring to have a negative opinion about a source-canon storyline and to think the source would be better if [X]," but in this case? The fact that she manipulated people in order to watch them dance for her and then shut the conversation down the moment she decided that she'd gotten everything she needed out of it makes it really obvious that in her head, it's All. About. Her. (so it wouldn't entirely surprise me if she honestly did agree with the "Don't tell me about your pain! Mine is so much worse!" part).
Some of the things she said were openly hurtful, angering, and insensitive, and the fact that she revealed that she'd apparently said them all deliberately and knowingingly just to watch people's reactions to self-righteous racist rhetoric... words fail me. I'd call her a troll, but even trolls don't usually have the effrontry to *thank people* for helping them with their social research when they're done trolling.
