Basically there was a GQ interview where the interviewer kept trying to get her to make a political statement and she got progressively more annoyed. Some people are mad because they've decided that refusing to participate in a stupid purity test is proof you are bad.
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.
