Then it came out that she had started dating YouTuber Chris Ray Gun and they threw an even bigger shit fit and insinuated she doesn't get to date people like him who aren't down with their cause without being a traitor to LGBTQ, women, and PoC folks.
That's fair. How can you credibly claim to support a cause while carrying on a relationship with someone who actively opposes that cause? It's about as believable as Melania's anti-bullying initiative, or Scoot Pruitt's leadership of the EPA. I'm not condoning doxxing and further harassment, but their criticisms of her are reasonable and deserved. Pay them all dust.
EDIT: Like, she does this video talking about intersectionality with Franchesca Ramsey that's really good at summarizing intersections 101, and how important considering those perspective are for making sure your progressive politics do the most good for the most people. How should one interpret this video in the light of her more current actions? These things can't coexist. It's like it's coming from a different person.
That's bullshit. You can associate with, even date, people you don't entirely agree with on every subject. And a willingness to debate and converse with ideological opponents, even acknowledging that they might occasionally have a good point, doesn't mean you abandon your own political values. The fact that you can't see how someone can be in a relationship with someone they have political disagreements with is bizarre to me.
But were they even in a boyfriend/girlfriend type relationship? I recall it being strictly a sexual thing. You can hate-fuck someone too. Azealia Banks did it with white men.
Nah. They're dating. They've appeared in videos together several times. ---
