The fact that this is your take away shows how out of touch you are tbh. And thats coming from someone who couldn't stand Candiace until this season.
me disagreeing with you is not "out of touch" babe. like i said, i understand how colourism works. candice herself said she doesn't think anyone in the group is colourist. she herself specifically mentioned her "reputation" during the colourism segment. and tried to compare it to robyn. and although robyn is sloppy, late, and a loser, she's never exhibited the pattern of behavior that candice has. so for her to say "why doesn't she get the same lable?" well... cuz she don't act like u hun cccccc. so it was a false equivalence and as far as her reputation... again it's her PATTERN of behavior. which is prob why you, yourself didn't like her until this season. now does she suffer at the hands of colourism AT ALL? I'm sure of it. she's a chocolate woman on earth. but rep on housewives just ain't the reason for that as opposed to her actions.
So you don't agree with Candiace or even like her, but when it comes to her saying none of her castmates are colorist you take her word for it because it aligns with your POV?
Robyn doesn't have the lexicon or the verbal fluency to match Candiace's "behavior". In fact Robyn's behavior has been more egregious than Canadice because Robyn has actually used physical intimidation on more than one occasion. So in that sense it is a false equivalency. Robyn has her own pattern of behavior that doesn't get the same visceral response due to a number of reasons, one being bias.
The fact that Candiace's pattern of behavior is exploited more than anyone else's on the show speaks to an implicit bias. And to negate it by not comparing Candiace's actions to the women who have done more vile things is a cop-out.
But yeah agree to disagree. lol.
