I am glad.
As for what causes this privilege? IDK. I know I see it more and more and more these days. NYC is one of the worst places for it, it seems to me.

Basically, she describes herself as a 22 year old "girl" and the 14 year old CHILD as a "man". She also doesn't understand how what she did is actually criminally racist. Victim culture on full display.
Is it victim culture or the pretty timeless idea that white women are innocent and victims while black kids no matter how young are treated like adults? If we keep dancing around the issue we will continue to have a society like the one we are living in now. abcnews.go.com/amp/US/african-americans-blamed-crimes-commit-experts/story?id=70906828In reviewing what you wrote, I think my use of "victim culture" is incorrect. I'm not referring to the actual victim here, the teen who was attacked in a racially motivated and criminal way.
I applied "victim culture" to the aggressor who is trying to depict herself as a victim as is the habit of these types of self-absorbed, entitled, privileged women tend to do. We've seen this over and over and it definitely goes hand in hand with the morally corrupt and centuries-old ideology that "white women are innocent and victims while black kids no matter how young are treated like adults".
I just went a researched a bit more about the term "victim culture" and can see what I thought it meant actually refers specifically to Campbell and Manning's "The Rise of Victimhood Culture: Microaggressions, Safe Spaces, and the New Culture Wars".
This is my misunderstanding of the term so I'll take this moment to correct myself. Instead of "Victim culture on full display." I should have said, "Sick entitlement on display" or something along those lines.
Apologies for misusing the term, will take better care in the future.

okay, I tried again... "all right, Gayle-- enough." REALLY?!? if she's just an innocent, sweet virginal 22-year old girl scared to be alone in NYC, like she's portraying herself to be, then why the hell didn't she just stay in her protected little bubble?!? Exactly! Does she not realize that generations before her managed just fine without their cell phones? Yes it's frustrating, I misplace my phone all the time. But you don't attack a child and a man because you were irresponsible and lost your phone! I'm so glad she has been arrested.

She freaking tackled him. OMG what a freaking entitled woman. Her parents should be ashamed. But it sounds like the mother at least isn't any better and is probably where she learned how to behave like that.

Miya isn't doing herself any favors by being on shows and letting the world see the real her. That pretend apology was pathetic. But I do sincerely from the bottom of my heart apologize that if I made the son feel as if I assaulted him or if I hurt his feelings or the father’s feelings.” Hurt his feelings? She publicly accused him of theft! And then we all saw her physically attack him and then leave before the police arrived.
And did we all see her "Daddy" hat? It would appear that even her attorney, Sharen H. Ghatan, is already sick of her too. Her office advised Miya on what to wear for the appearance on Gayle King's show. She didn't take the advice. The attorney suggested she remove the hat for two reasons, the lighting and the message on it. Ms. Ghatan said she tried to get her to take it off before they went on the air. and Miya said, "It’s her story, it’s her hat, and she wants to wear it". Ms. Ghatan said, "She’s a very challenging client.” She also expressed concern about her mental health.
Ghatan told TMZ that she was “forced to cancel other” interviews after realizing what a train-wreck the King interview turned out to be.
“I am uncertain as to how I’m going to proceed,” the lawyer said to The Daily Beast. “I’m uncertain if I can proceed forward with a client who is unwilling and unaccepting of the legal advice I’m giving her.”
Like the rest of the internet, Ghatan praised Gayle King for keeping her composure during a tense interview where her client shushed the anchor. “The interview was very well done. Gayle King is such a professional, as is the entire CBS team. They’re fantastic.”
At the end of the clip, Ghatan tried to reel Ponsetto back a bit. According to her, that was not the only attempt. “I interrupted [Miya] several times, and I intervened several times. I made statements and tried my best, but she would cut me off and stop. It put me at a disadvantage to help her.”
Ghatan added that this was, “the most challenging thing I’ve faced with a client, frankly. Out of a thousand clients, you might get one that doesn’t listen, the other 99 want to listen. She happens to be the one.” I wonder if she is going to drop her?
Off to read about her prior legal troubles...

What is the meaning or implication of that daddy cap? According to the urban dictionary, it means the ish, the ultimate, the cake. In other words, she is all that. Her lawyer did not want her to wear it, but she did anyway.

I wasn’t aware either and understood you to mean claiming to be the victim, thank you for the clarification on what the term actually means.

I am so happy that this dad is sticking up for his son and not "letting it go" because it's a female attacker. And when I read articles about this story on facebook, pretty much everyone wants her punished for what she did. I am not used to everyone agreeing in the comments.

I guess I am not cool!

But it sounds like the mother at least isn't any better and is probably where she learned how to behave like that. But nooooo, she doesn’t want to talk about THAT! She just wants to move on and have no accountability for her own actions. She’s an entitled Bitch.

It makes me sick to think how many racists have gotten away with their lies in the decades before video cameras.
Just sick.
Imagine if this hotel had NO CAMERAS. She literally assaulted this black teen but she’s trying to sell that SHE was assaulted.

I've watched her Gayle King interviews and I do think she has mental health issues on top of being very, very spoiled and indulged. Her poor lawyer - what a thankless job that is. I hope she has the book thrown at her - that's the only way she'll ever learn that her actions have consequences because clearly her parents didn't teach her that.

I hope that she is found guilty and not let off the hook. She has assaulted on a minor and is okay with that. She's already shown that by trying to turn it around and claim she was assaulted.
I also saw the interview she did and my jaw dropped when she dismissed Gayle King like that.

She does seem to have a mental illness. Though anyone who thinks Black people are more likely to steal from them or cause harm does too. The veil is lifting on that whole super predator lie.

I'm glad that she is being charged. She tackled the kid then whines that the Dad dare touch her? 😂 You get a parent is going to want to protect their kid from someone who is acting crazy!

She is an adult and she attacked a child. You better bet any parent would protect their son if she laid a hand on him/or the parent themself.

He is probably the least violent person I know, it doesn’t even take all the fingers from both hands, maybe not even 1, to count the number of times he has even raised his voice to me in 27 years. (And ladies...truth? I can be a very difficult pain in the ass ) There is not a chance in hell he would sit back allowing her to tackle a child. Any child, much less his own. So she can suck it with that complaint, if it even happened.
