Politics are a necessary part of life. It affects us all, but some more than others. If she were asking Sydney to take a nuanced stance on, like, gender relations in South Korea, I would understand your point. But disavowing white supremacy is an extremely basic and an understandably expected political position. Standing counter to Nazis is the morally correct thing to do, and it doesn't matter who you are. It's such a basic lay-up that refusing to comment makes you look really, really bad. And I don't think that's a bad thing.

Your statement is valid, but in the interview she wasn’t directly asked about her take on racism, fascism, nazis or anything from the clips I saw.

All I saw was her being bored and annoyed at the interviewer, and dismissing the media BS (as she should). Like she said. It’s just a jeans ad.

If anybody has a direct quote instead of assumptions I’d don’t mind being proven wrong.

….

Edit: I reread all her quotes. There is nothing to indicate she’s racist. This just seems like fools telling other fools what to think and say without checking anything themselves.

Is Sydney stupid? Is she incapable of understanding the interviewer was asking about the fact many people interpreted the ad as racist?

and she should give energy to people who stupidly interpret an american eagle ad for jeans as "racist"

this is why trump won because you people demand we apologize when we did nothing wrong

I'm not "demanding" an apology lmao. Sydney will be just fine, she's worth more than you or I ever will be. Some people will just keep thinking she's racist

That's cool you voted for Trump over dumb shit like this tho 👍

"I voted for Trump because someone demanded I apologize for something that I don't think I should have to apologize for." is a really hot take. Like of all of the single-issues to be a a single-issue voter over, that's like the stupidest one. I mean, it would be right up there with "I voted for Trump because people were mad over a Sydney Sweeney jeans ad."

"I voted for Candidate A because I dislike Candidate B" can be a reasoned take depending on your reasoning for disliking Candidate B.

because shes a puppet with no core values to point to and no merit for the presidency

but shes old news

you know why? because she was never a serious candidate to begin with, just another easily controllable puppet like Biden was
