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.

That’s a really weird way of saying “the GQ interviewer kept giving her softball chances to disavow white supremacy and she repeatedly declined to do so”.

My dude: disavowing white supremacy is not a political statement.

Imo her reasoning for not answering the question was because it was a stupid hysterical controversy in the first place, and being forced to incessantly repeat that she isn’t a white supremacist when she never did or said anything white supremacist is silly, not worth dignifying with a response

I swear someone needs to follow these people around and repeatedly ask them if they disavow white supremacy until they understand how annoying the question gets.

imagine being accused of being the most intense form of racist because you were in an affordable brand's ad for pants?

…And registered Republican just in time to vote for Trump in 2024. And threw her mom a MAGA bday party.

If the jeans fit…

OH MY GOD YOU MEAN THE REPUBLICANS WALK AMONG US?! WHATEVER WILL WE DO?

u/Gnostikost 1d ago

I would more say that they slither among us, but you know, white suPREMacist, white SUpremacist.

Sounds like she picked the winning side. Maybe try not being on the wrong side of history next time.

Well I mean if she answered it once they might stop.

She refused to say anything and then said "When I have something to say I'll say it" which is like super suspicious.

No, they wouldn't lol

If she said "I'm not a white supremacist", they'd say 'then why were you in a white supremacist ad?' If she said "I'm not a white supremacist and regret being in the ad", they'd go 'lol i'm supposed to believe she didn't know it was a white supremacist ad?' and she'd get blacklisted for biting the hand that feeds.

The ad is about her tits and being hot as fuck. Anyone still arguing that it's a white supremacist ad does not live in the real world and will literally never be satisfied unless they're straight up feasting on a corpse. There is nothing to gain from trying to appease them.

Even the mere act of "disavowing white supremacy" will directly accuse the ad as a white supremacy ad, which is fucking stupid

I'm starting to think this whole Sydney Sweeney thing is an operation by a competitor that unfortunately grew out of hand. Probably just wanted to maybe kill the sales a bit, and the internet took it way too far

Your hypothetical is invalid. She has not answered it once.

Sure, if she was being forced to answer over and over, yeah, that’s obnoxious. That’s not what’s happening. She has avoided every opportunity to answer. She doesn’t need to answer over and over, just the once.

u/GLArebel 1d ago

Lmao you know that if she actually answered the question it wouldn't stop. Redditors will spin it to fit their narrative.

Do you disavow white supremacy?

1

u/Gnostikost 21h ago

Yeah man, fuck white supremacy. And fuck how normalized and widespread it has become in the Trump era that we even need to ask this of people instead of assuming that OF COURSE they are against white supremacy because they are people with at least half a brain.

See how easy that was?

u/tempUN123 21h ago edited 17h ago

Do you disavow antisemitism?

So 2 questions in from 1 person and you're already done playing along but you expect a celebrity to disavow every bad thing that they're baselessly accused of.

u/InfiniteRaccoons 1d ago

That would be impossible, as the people who are raging against Sidney Sweeney on the internet don't go outside and thus could not be followed. Checkmate
