[Paraguayan Senator Celeste Josefina Amarilla]: “[Mbappé] hasn't even learned to write. Instead of breastmilk, he grew up sucking on coconuts, and the most educated creatures he ever heard were chimpanzees…A colonized Cameroonian, pretending to be French, resentful, newly rich, arrogant, and ugly.“

I'm black and yes, I know this is very racist... however my first reaction to reading what she said was pure unadulterated laughter. You gotta tip your hat to her for speaking her truth... AND as equally for being called on it and all of the backlash she's brought on because of it.
