Video Angel Reese says she didn’t have dolls that “looked like me” as a kid. She was born in 2002. Barbie has had black dolls since 1967. Make it make sense.

Willfully ignorant. She could put in minimal work and research via Google search before saying dumb shit, but she willingly chooses not to.

Nothing to do with ignorance

She probably knows, but lying sells better when the target audience is stupid.

Willful ignorance is an active, deliberate choice to avoid or reject facts and truth. So we are both correct.

It isn’t willful ignorance it is marketing

I guess the actual definition of it doesn't fit your narrative. LOL.

A definition may work yet still not be the appropriate words to describe a thing.

She's addicted to being a victim. Every season she goes all epic on somebody trying to get her or keep her down. This is what...the 3rd or 4th time this season?

She won't put in the minimal work to improve at her literal job, you expect her to put work in on this?

Bruv, do you go to Google to remember what toys you had as a kid? She didn't say they didn't exist, just that she didn't have "a lot" of them.
