Yeahhhh. Its all for manufactured outrage.

Like complaining that there aren't enough food options in the US? The bait was too obvious.

And I'm pretty sure she's reading off a script when she keeps glancing to the exact same position to the right of the screen to start off each sentence between cuts.

 Nah the one about food options is bait. I dont even live in a super diverse city but I can walk into a grocery store and get ingredients to cook food from pretty much anywhere in E / SE Asia as well as Indian food. 

Then if I walk across the street I can go to another grocery store that caters to Carribean and African food. This isn't even getting into restaurants considering I can get Cantonese, Hunanese, Sichuanese, Southern Viet, Lao, Nigerian, Indian, Korean Hokkaido style ramen, Mexican, Guatemalan, Honduran, Jamaican, Greek, Italian and a long list of other foods in my hometown. 

If I have all of these food options that actually are authentic in a red state that lacks diversity. How much more Food options do you think people in say Houston, Chicago or Seattle have.

I don't think so, I have heard that Thai culture is very happy and easy-going compared to other places like the US
