But what Christie said is in another league altogether. She did not judge herself, as Niambi did - she judged Niambi, and she did it with confidence and a smirk. To make it worse, she inferred that Niambi's conflict with Christi may have more to do with Christi's ethnicity than anything she's done or failed to do. I don't believe that Niambi said that she felt oppressed and is trigged by white women in general, and Christi in particular.
It was an incredibly foolish thing for Christi to say.
I couldn't agree more... and I also agree, vehemently, that it was indeed foolish for Christie to spout out those words....for in doing so she revealed a flaw in her character.
Christie is extremely judgemental and thinks she's an elitist (aaaannnkk)...and exhibits an air of superiority as if she's accomplished something in life...when what I see is " the little girl in the window with her nose pressed against the window pane...looking in at the life she wants that everyone else has".
Christie has a jealousy issue...one that's eating her alive. All her life she's whinnned about how horrible her life was because she had a drug addicted mother and no father...she's always wanted it....but wasn't then and still isn't prepared to work for it...just blame.
I agree with Niambi in that Christie doesn't ask for support...she demands it ...and after she whines to an LC...she usually gets her way. It has happened several times because she's played the game so much she knows how to "rat out another HG that she's feeling threatened by"...and it's work for her so far. The LC's haven't acknowledged this innate flaw of Christie's yet or they chose not to because Rhonda favors her as Niambi alluded to.
What Christie spoke was "true to her issues" (just switch the words around and it reveals that she's threatened by this "black woman" who isn't afraid to speak her mind....Christie realizes that Niambi sees right thru her and it's scaring the bejeesus out of her.
Truth be told...Niambi is an angry woman...who just happens to be "black" ...Christie chose to bring up Niambi's ethnicity....particularly in this conversation...prior to her equating them to be in a "racial" disagreement...it was just a disagreement. Niambi was correct to suggest that the rules were there to support Christie and were in place before her arrival and were imposed on her...yet, Christie very seldomly support the others in actions...just "compassion" (I wished she's find a new word, she's wearing this one out)...She acted like it was killing her to ask Antonia (half-heartedly and from a distance so as not to be really heard) if she needed any help (I remember laughing at the lack of enthusiasm on her behalf).... when is she going to get off her a$$ and physically muster up some strength to do something manual....she hasn't learned anything...she just found tools to excuse her laziness...it's sad.
Did any of you notice her facial expressions at dinner and in group this morning...boy, they told me alot....she looked very much like she stepped in a pile of sh#t and was looking for someplace to wipe her feet...and in group, she couldn't even look half of the HG's in the eyes.
Christie's full of crap...she's the most insincere HG, yet. She keeps coming up with the same "catch phrases"...over and over...she's limited to say the least. She's jealous and insecure and it comes out of hiding every time I hear her "squeaky voice".
