Woke liberals lose the plot: From ghoulishly gloating over Queen's death to blaming her for them writing in ENGLISH
ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN: In a recent tweet, Ebony Elizabeth Thomas, a University of Michigan education professor called Queen Elizabeth II, "a colonizer." Meanwhile, a Washington Post reporter, Eugene Scott questioned, "When is the appropriate time to talk about the negative impact of colonialism?"
The duo tweeted after a woke Carnegie Mellon professor, Uju Anya sparked outrage by wishing the Queen an "excruciatingly painful" death in a now-deleted tweet. Anya, who works in the Department of Modern Languages at CMU, posted on Twitter, "I heard the chief monarch of a thieving raping genocidal empire is finally dying. May her pain be excruciating."

She then added, "If anyone expects me to express anything but disdain for the monarch who supervised a government that sponsored the genocide that massacred and displaced half my family and the consequences of which those alive today are still trying to overcome, you can keep wishing upon a star. That wretched woman and her bloodthirsty throne have f**king generations of my ancestors on both sides of the family, and she supervised a government that sponsored the genocide my parents and siblings survived. May she die in agony."
According to DailyMail, further to this tweet, both Ebony and Scott tweeted on their Twitter handles with Scott stating, "Real question for the “now is not the appropriate time to talk about the negative impact of colonialism” crowd: When is the appropriate time to talk about the negative impact of colonialism?" and Ebony tweeted, Telling the colonized how they should feel about their colonizer's health and wellness is like telling my people that we ought to worship the Confederacy. "Respect the dead" when we're all writing these Tweets *in English.* How'd that happen, hm? We just chose this language?

Telling the colonized how they should feel about their colonizer's health and wellness is like telling my people that we ought to worship the Confederacy. 😒

Meanwhile, Anya who recently spoke to NBC News claimed, "There are people literally around the world, rejoicing at this woman's death, not because they're vile or cold, but because her reign and the reign of her monarchy by extension was violent." She went on to slam those who'd condemned her tweets, saying, "I take deep offense at the notion that the oppressed and survivors of violence have to somehow be deferential or respectful when their oppressors die."
She also added, "In addition to the colonization on the side of Nigeria, there's also the human enslavement in the Caribbean. So there's a direct lineage that I have to not just people who were colonized, but also people who were enslaved by the British."
Ever since the death of Queen Elizabeth II, there have been vile trolls swarming over social media with gleeful posts claiming she was a colonizer. Meanwhile, in a recent live conversation remembering Queen Elizabeth II, MSNBC host Ali Velshi got into a heated exchange with British Historian Dr Andrew Roberts. The historian questioned the host for beginning a special on the Queen's legacy by condemning the royal family on Saturday, September 10, 2022.
