Billie Eilish's favorite cartoon character annoyed people badly, but why?

Billie Eilish has been criticized once again, after an old clip of the singer shows her, saying that the character Cindy from "The Boondocks" is "her favorite cartoon character". 

"My favorite character would be Cindy from 'The Boondocks' because she' s like me. She'm me if I're just going to do all the things I'm supposed to do," the singer says in the video.

For those who do not know, "The Boondocks" is an animated sitcom series, famous for its use of African-American satire. The character Cindy and the whole series are known for the way they touch (with humor, satire) topics of politics, racism, terrorism, etc.

Cindy is a white "doll" but speaks with an African-American accent. She is portrayed as a person unaware of the problems with racism.

 

All this has not been liked by many people, who have made hundreds of posts on Twitter, where they say "what Billie continues to do is not normal", "At first he mocks Asians, now with people of color", etc. 

The video comes out less than a month after the singer faced harsh criticism after the release of an old video , which was allegedly "racist against Asians".

Of course, there have been those who have thought that "what people are doing is superfluous and not every action is done with the intention of racism".
