2. Nice if true.
Of course anyone could be standing there with a sign that says anything. Doesn't mean this is real. It might be smart to have people expressing this kind of sentiment there.

12. No, neither of those things.
I just don't believe everything I see. Someone should interview her.

15. I wonder..
I don't believe everything I see either,

but wealthy philantropy isn't exactly unknown here.

Most are men and I don't see the kind of automatic nastiness

thrown at them as I do her.

17. I don't think I was being nasty.
I didn't insult her or anything. I just wondered if it was true. I would have questioned anyone of either gender.

10. Exactly.
Nobody can verify it, and apparently nobody wants to.

This kind of thing is a good social engineering method used by opposition groups of all kinds. "I'm one of 'them,' but I'm with you!"

11. It is all true.
It isn't that hard to verify it. You just have to look. She works for Resource Generation a non profit that "organizes young people with financial wealth to leverage resources and privilege for social change".

16. Hmmm.....
Obvious idiocy is the same.
