They love her because they think she is a white supremacist like they are.

All because when she had a chance to stand up and say she WASN'T, she decided to cash the cheques and keep her mouth shut.

Big mistake.

u/TiredAndTiredOfIt Aug 08 '26

Because she IS a white supremacist.

u/Murky-Relation481 Aug 08 '26

I mean she might be, probably is, but also she got ripped for a play on words jeans commercial/ad that isn't inherently racist. Her big tired flag is when people got upset at it she didn't say anything, which would be okay, since it's not inherently racist, if not for the fact that maga came simping to her defense and she also said nothing.

u/Fit-Historian-752 Aug 08 '26

Exactly.

She tried to profit from allowing herself to be used as a weapon in the culture wars.

It made her more famous. Is fame the only currency that matters nowadays?

If so, then this was a win for her.

Social media IS real life, now.

It is sad.

Is fame the only currency that matters nowadays?

Yes, it is. For a more obnoxious example, see the absolute slew of nuisance streamers plaguing the world these days.

It kind of is honestly. America is slowly grifting itself into oblivion. Tons of people pushing inane bullshit they don't even believe in in the name of clicks and likes.

Well that was wonderful to watch, then I saw it was 8yrs ago... clearly nobody was listening in your country....

u/Curious_Orange8592 Aug 08 '26

Excuse me? My country?

u/Little-Economist-923 Aug 08 '26

I can't imagine how depressing it must be going through life believing bullshit of this magnitude about complete strangers.

u/No_Drawer_2349 Aug 08 '26

Is this Sydney's alt account?

If you get painted a Nazi and then don't deny it, you might be a Nazi

If you go on reddit to defend that person bc you like here bewbs, you might be an incel Nazi

u/Grand_Fox5411 Aug 08 '26

Sydney is? What proof do you have to throw out such a definitive accusation?

u/ModToEndAllMods Aug 08 '26

Reddit really is hilarious sometimes lol

Spider-Pig!

u/Deaffin Aug 08 '26

Please do not the pig.

3

u/Fit-Historian-752 Aug 08 '26

Do not "what" the pig?

Missing a pretty important verb there, brother.

I respect Spider Pig immensely - after all, he does whatever a Spider Pig does - what's not to love?

u/Fit-Historian-752 Aug 08 '26

Nick Kroll is right.

He's always right.

I mean, not "alt-right" but rather, "correct".

1

u/Fit-Historian-752 Aug 08 '26

I think I know the verb that's missing - rhymes with truck.

1

u/Deaffin Aug 08 '26

There's nothing missing. Just do not the pig. Please.

u/Fit-Historian-752 Aug 08 '26

I just read the article.

It is fantastic and makes a great point.

My only caveat is that Sweeny isn't a politician and one can assume she has a PR team who advise her on social media, public perception etc.

If they thought her being silent as the controversy flared they were wrong.

A politician may have something to gain from playing this narrative out - she did not.

Hopefully, she fired their incompetent asses.

u/humourlessIrish Aug 08 '26

Jesus man. You read it but are still stuck on it.

Get better soon

u/Fit-Historian-752 Aug 08 '26

It has to do with politics, NOT media personalities - very different things.

You have no discernment.

All the examples given were from before the creation of social media.

There was a simple way for her to handle the media firestorm that would have been very good for her public image.

I never once said she was a white supremacist. I don't think she is.

But far right actors disingenuously used her to fan the flames of the culture war.

I think her PR team fumbled the ball.

u/Fit-Historian-752 Aug 08 '26

Did YOU read it?

You obviously missed the point, if you did.

Maybe read my response again.

I'm not making the point you seem to think I'm making.

u/Local_Maintenance788 Aug 08 '26

It's soooo easy to say you're against corruption and racism. Why didn't she do it?

1

u/Available_Parsley_65 Aug 08 '26

Quiet down nazi. Coming from the people who idolized a woman beating fentanyl addict, that's rich.

u/Away_Ganache_6776 Aug 08 '26

Quiet down, Nazi.

u/thegigglepickle1 Aug 08 '26

Man yall really live in your own little reality don't you. I don't think anyone, especially the people you're pretending exist, give a shit about Sydney Sweeney

I know you are, but what am I.

Also, touch grass, boomer, and any other empty memes that sidestep the issue.

Also - SpiderPig!

u/Used-Try-258 Aug 08 '26

Na everyone loved her because she’s hot af. Then she said she had good genes as white person (who should be ashamed of her genes) and Reddit incels turned on her

5

u/Fit-Historian-752 Aug 08 '26

Not everyone thinks she's hot.

Lot's of men think she has nice boobs, but a butter face.

MAGA loves her because they think she is a white supremacist like they are.

She played her hand.

She lost.

MAGA can have her.

Kid Rock and Scott Baiao, too.

Ted Nugent, too.

Dean Cain, too.

Enjoy.

You won them, fair and square.

Exactly….and she never endorsed trump and never endorsed white supremacy….she just didn’t bite on a stupid question from a reporter trying to race bait

u/Fit-Historian-752 Aug 08 '26

Fair points.

The public is fickle and if they don't support he movies and shows it may be short term gain but cost her in the long run.

Doesn't matter to me, though.

She is a fair actress but no Meryl Streep.

u/Used-Try-258 Aug 08 '26

She lost on Reddit lol… and as we’ve seen….Reddit is a very poor representation of how normal people view the world.

3

u/FakeBeigeNails Pass The Croissants 🥐 🥐 Aug 08 '26

She lost on TikTok and Twitter, too.

2

u/Fit-Historian-752 Aug 08 '26

Anyone who uses the term "normal people" is not to be taken seriously.

-2

u/Used-Try-258 Aug 08 '26

Anyone who thinks Reddit has an accurate pulse on how society views things should be pointed and laughed at.

3

u/Fit-Historian-752 Aug 08 '26

Trump voters should get deprogrammed.

Joining a cult never ends well.

u/SonOfJokeExplainer Aug 08 '26

Anyone who makes arguments about Redditors as though Reddit is a homogeneous group of like-minded people is a absolute moron with no clue how anything works in the real world or online.

1

u/Used-Try-258 Aug 08 '26

Reddit is one of the most homogenous, hive mind echo chambers to exist since the internet….its okay to generalize

1

u/SonOfJokeExplainer Aug 08 '26

You’re such a special little snowflake.

u/Used-Try-258 Aug 08 '26

Yaaa good one kid

u/Iorith Aug 08 '26

No one thinks you should be ashamed of your genes. But you lot seem to think being aware of history is the same as being ashamed of it.

Reminds me how y'all think if you aren't constantly, performatively "patriotic" you hate your nation.
