Trolls say Tristan Tate's ego is too high

After Tate claimed that he was a direct descendant of African-American slaves and asserted that white individuals were not responsible for enslavement, many users stepped forward to voice their views.

A user wrote, "I strongly disagree. Idk why your ego is so high but apologizing is never bad. White or not. To be able to feel and understand others pain is not kissing their shoes. It doesn't matter if its past just acknowledging it makes you more human."
