Is Kary Brittingham racist? 'RHOD' star calls Tiffany Moon 'Covid girl', screams 'English not first language'

Amused fans took to their Twitter to point out how Kary was using race as an excuse for her ignorance

If there's one thing that the Dallas housewives are experts at, it is conjuring a storyline out of literally nothing. On the latest episode of 'Real Housewives of Dallas', Kary Brittingham and new housewife, Tiffany Moon, got into a huge heated argument, and fans are having a hard time wrapping their heads around the whole issue.

It all began with Tiffany playfully calling out Kary for pushing her into a swimming pool when she was fully clothed and didn't know how to swim. Kary didn't take her co-star's criticism well and immediately retaliated by pointing out how Tiffany herself admitted that she needed help with loosening up and having fun, so she was just helping with that.

Tiffany agreed that she did seek help but didn't expect the fun to come in the form of being pushed into having fun. Kameron Westcott, who is still holding onto a grudge against Tiffany over the chicken foot incident, quickly chimed in by calling her "two-faced". Even Kary agreed with Kameron and declared that Tiffany was "two-faced".

Unfortunately for Kameron and Kary, Tiffany shot back at them, by pointing out the meaning of two-faced, and how they were using it incorrectly. When Tiffany tried to correct Kary's English, she got upset and used her Mexican ethnicity to justify her language skills. With hopes of shutting Tiffany down, Kary screamed "English isn't my first language" as she is Mexican.

Everybody around them went completely quiet when the topic of race came up, but Tiffany saw no logic or connection between race and English, so she too clapped back by pointing out she was Chinese, and English isn't her first language either. In her confessional, Tiffany explained that she wasn't going to let Kary's race card shenanigans fly by and that it won't work on her.

Amused fans took to their Twitter to point out how Kary was using race as an excuse for her ignorance. A fan tweeted, "Kary bates people by throwing her race at people like she just did with Tiffany. And Tiffany called it out! Yessss @TiffanyMoonMD . She did the exact same thing to leeanne. #RHOD." Another fan wrote, "Kary contradicts A LOT of things. The fact that she tried to bring up her ethnicity to make a point or shut Tiffany up per her actions, shows how ignorant she can be. #RHOD." "FINALLY! Someone put Kary in her place and unlike last season, it wasn't racially motivated. Dr. Tiffany and her are both immigrant WOC, so she can't play victim. Vieja odiosa. #RHOD," commented a fan.

As the argument between the ladies continued, Kary resorted to below the belt attack by calling Tiffany, a frontline worker, as Covid Girl. Kary declared that Tiffany was the original Covid girl, because she is exposed to the virus the most due to her profession, and that all the ladies were risking themselves by hanging out with her. Tiffany agreed with Kary that she was the most exposed amongst them all, but refused to be apologetic about it. 

Fans were horrified on hearing how low Kary was stooping to attack Tiffany and felt that her Covid comment had a tinge of racism to it. A fan shared, "We all know Kary just referred to Tiffany as “COVID Girl” as a RACIST comment. #RHOD #BravoTV." Another fan expressed, "Did Kary just call Tiffany covid girl for being a doctor!!!! What an idiot #RHOD." "YIKES at kary trying to criticize DR. tiffany moon for having the most exposure to covid because she's [checks notes] putting herself at risk to save lives? you know how selfish and disgusting you sound??? #RHOD," pointed a fan.
