Points to consider:
- White guy at 3:08 is a douche. You probably noticed this already, but it bears repeating.
- White women's tears make an appearance at 4:33.
- It was bought up at
debunkingwhite that the experiment might be considered to be triggery when there were PoC in the store.
- In the youtube comments, someone bought up how the dressed-down look included more natural-looking hair.
- Also in the youtube comments, several people tried to claim that this was a scenario that would never happen in real life.
- Yet another person on youtube commented saying that most shoplifters are white. I'm still trying to dig up statistics broken down along racial lines to confirm or deny this.
- The video does, you notice, end on a high note, with pretty much the entire store rallying behind the actress. How does this alter your initial feelings about watching this video?
