I googled what she has done, and found nothing. Can you explain?
I don’t think that’s how time machines work, sorry.
(American Eagle ad about “good jeans/genes”).
She was in an ad for American Eagle and it had a slightly problematic phrase of “She’s got good jeans” as, you know, a play on good genes. Also, she is a registered Republican and wealthy, so some people take that to extremes and assume that means she is a Nazi.
She also threw a MAGA party for her mom or aunt or grandma or something. IDK, if someone’s that deep in I’m assuming they’re a Nazi. But also none of it impacts me at all.
I was kinda defending the ad. Then heard the other ad specifically about blue eyes. Then heard about the party. Sounds like yet another case of the left being correct about something once you dig into it a bit.
I had not heard about the party and such, but ultimately it doesn’t mean much for me. I have a disdain for all celebrities unless they are actively using their money and influence to better the world, and even then it only makes me tolerate them. Very few have I ever liked, and I will likely never truly defend them against allegations unless the evidence is very clear.
In her case, yeah, no, I wouldn’t be surprised if she joins ICE or some shit. Still, I won’t outright call her a Nazi until it does become blatantly obvious.
“Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality and even eye color. My jeans are blue.”
-Literally what Sweeney said in the ad, did no one even watch it???
First, why would I go out of my way to watch an ad for jeans? Secondly, I said the ad had the phrase, not that she said the phrase. Though, I was incorrect in the specific phrase, as it was actually “Sidney Sweeny has great jeans.” Third, why does this matter to you so much? It really doesn’t matter much for me, she’s just another worthless celeb with more money than sense like so many others, and she is not even near the top of my list of celebs I despise.
Because dismissing people complaining about the normalization of bigoted pseudoscience is fucked up. You had to claim people were taking things “to extremes” when you didn’t know the context of what you were talking about. I don’t care that you didn’t watch the fascist ad, I care that you’re dismissing people with genuine concerns.
I don’t see how I was dismissing anyone. I flatly gave the facts that I was aware of, and tried to avoid putting any bias into the way I phrased it, allowing for the original commenter to form their own opinion. I think you are trying to find enemies among friends, and trying to paint anyone who isn’t aggressively going after this woman and this company as fascist supporters, which is a bad look on you and anyone on the left.
The fact that you’re worrying about the left making themselves look bad when we’re at the death camp phase of fascism is telling. I don’t think you’re a fascist, but I do think you’re an uncritical “moderate” who cares more for decorum than substance, and such people are not allies.
I stated a fact, not any sort of worry. I stopped caring about how I and those like me are viewed some time ago, about when I started calling for the violent overthrow of the government by the people in mass revolt. I care less about randomly attacking celebs online, and far more about purchasing weapons and ammunition for the day when a “No Kings” rally turns into a revolutionary riot. I focus on spreading the word, telling people to arm themselves, organize with their communities, and prepare to fight like hell, while you seem to be far more focused on attacking anyone who does not also share your obsession with attacking celebs. Don’t worry though, after the revolution you won’t need to worry about going after celebs online anymore, as they, along with all the oligarchs, will be dragged into trials and stripped of their wealth and power.
You are right though about us not being allies, as I have no need to ally myself with pedantic children on the internet. Oh, and still think I’m a “moderate” at this point, or do I need to go into detail on my plans for putting Republican voters into re-education camps after the revolution? I doubt I will, as you’ll find that I am too far left of you and take issue with everything I have said, while once again going back to focusing on attacking celebs instead of doing anything useful, like spreading the word and convincing people to take Real action against the fascists.
She’s mindless (by personal decision), but I don’t think she would’ve been highly regarded back then because she’s evidently an adult with FAS, and Hitler was very big on “genetic superiority”.🤷
Idk if it was White Lotus or what but I don’t even find her that attractive. Aubrey Plaza does deadpan stare better.
