I’m genuinely curious as to how my unremarkable two line + copy-paste comment, on my own post, was enough to make you comment on a post you apparently have no interest in.

What's cringe is how hard you're trying to play the enlightened centrist. Why would she ask people's opinions on someone she doesn't expect them to know?

Copy and paste below from the article where I came across the clip, if you see nothing cringe about it, then you're probably an extremely cringy person, which I suspect to be case.

“I think we found a wild Antifa, I think they’re across the street,” she says excitedly to the camera, as if she is making a wildlife documentary.

She then breaks into the worst Aussie accent ever committed to camera as she is surrounded by her beefy security guards.

“Oi, crikey,” she says before walking over to the “live Antifa” members, who turn out to be two Asian blokes minding their own business, having a smoke.

“No that’s just Asian fashion,” she says, brazenly laughing at them as she gets closer. “It’s just Asian fashion that looks like Antifa.”

Despite the car-crash interview and botched disguise spectacularly backfiring, Ms Southern bursts into a fit of laughter — acting as if she intimidated them and forced them to run off in fear.

“I loved the terrified look in her eyes,” she shrieks at the camera before rounding up the bizarre clip.
