Maybe she hasn't but some Somalis have indirectly received Soros funding.
@LarryThePuntite could be next. He might get funding he can't refuse and he'll integrate the progressive lefty nonsense into his videos.

I don’t think you seen my political ideology score.
I’m far right and top left like the Singapore party.
Has anybody else noticed TV shows have gotten much less funnier these days as well? Script writers have to be very careful not to offend these people.
Trending a few days ago was a bunch of weirdos saying the Simpsons is racist because of the Apu stereotype of Indians and because a white guy is the voice actor for Apu.
They're all damn crazy

I got triggered when Bantus played Somali roles in Black Hawk Down.
I take pride in calling our Moriyans Somali.
They are our little misfits.
Some of us go snowboarding and tow trailers with our trucks to watch a Rocky Mountain sunset.....at least I do.

A new documentary by a 22-year-old Toronto filmmaker is analyzing what is means to be an immigrant in Canada.
Directed and produced by Samah Ali, Hyphen-Nation features a 14-minute conversation between five women of colour that is inspired by her own cultural experience.
The women discuss how their cultural heritage influences their identities as Canadians and immigrants.
"The whole conversation is what's your hyphen?" explained Ali, calling her debut film a "nuanced" discussion about what black Canadian identities look like.
"And that's what opens it up to so many people to identify with because whether it's themselves or their family members who have an immigration story, everybody typically has a hyphen."
The women are asked if they identify with being black Canadians.
Ali explains this is both liberating and tragic. She identifies as a Kenyan-Somali woman, along with a Muslim woman and a black woman.
"I don't know if I identify strongly as a Canadian, but definitely when I leave Canada I identify as a Canadian," she said despite being born and raised in Toronto.
"The other parts of my identity, the ones that are more visible, the ones that I practice everyday are definitely the ones that are on the forefront of my mind. Compared to my Canadianness, it's something that I'm not really aware of until I have my passport and I'm travelling to other countries."

He finally broke characterYou're writing seems different, off
You're writing seems different, off
He finally broke character
How so? I've been against these people since day 1.
Nah you're writing just seems more natural and less robotic and trigger-y
Its definently you. I also don't get triggered, I just get sick and tired. Very different from getting triggered.
The only thing thats changed is that I have been a bit busy with developing my pro LGBT Somali language website so I haven't had as much time to trigger people here. I will get back to my normal self in a month or two.

I guess a lot of ppl feel like they're too foreign to the West and too foreign for their root countries, but I think it's blown way out of proportion. It's the human condition, and its reality; there are different languages, ethnicities, and groups, to yours, y'know.
I don't get it.
I don't believe you- Status
