Before you accuse someone of plagiarizing your idea, do your research so you don't end up looking like a whole fool when it turns out your idea wasn't proprietary in the first place.

To also take full credit for the concept of a neverending loop of disaster is some audacious shit. So you, miss ma'am, are the ONLY one who could dare to think of it? That's new levels of narcissism.
Congrats to the Academy Award winning @travon for "Two Distant Strangers!" A Black man creating a film about police brutality happening to a Black man over and over again, feels like lived experience placed in film form. Cynthia claiming plagiarism is A MESS. Like... ma'am. no.
An Asian woman. Claimed a Black man stole her idea. Of a Black man getting stopped my police over and over again. And folks went "YEAH!!! SHE'S RIGHT."
Explain to me how you thought that makes sense. Explain how an Asian woman can truly stake claim to that idea.

Then you add to it that I wrote a piece called "Groundhog Day of Police Brutality" in 2015. Cynthia shoulda run ONE google search before uploading her video to the YouTubes. Google is NEVER on vacation. It's never busy. https://luvvie.me/3eqxR2N
There are many lessons here. Some are:
* Google is never busy. Use it early and often.
* Before making public accusations, know your shit.
* Recognize what proprietary ideas are. Everything you do is actually NOT original

There is also something to interrogate here about people's quickness to believe the self-victimization of an Asian woman over the work and lived experience of a Black man. Who we are willing to take their word easily, and who we're willing to burn at the stake.
