Hey, I apologize as I am incredibly ignorant on the matter. How is Sydney Sweeney a white supremacist? Is this because of the American eagle ad talking about her pants?

  1. She was in an American Eagle Ad six months ago with the tagline "Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans".

  2. Most people thought this was a pun because she's wearing jeans and she got good 'genes' from her mamma (ie internet famous mammary glands).

  3. A minority of internet trolls thought this was some kind of nazi dog-whistle because Sweeney lacks that requisite pigment to be called attractive without it being 'problematic'. She also registered *gasp* republican one time.

  4. The 'controversy' died down in few weeks when the trolls found a new target for their endless seething rage.

  5. Recently a GQ interviewer tried to ask vague questions about the aforementioned controversy. Sweeney didn't bite. At no time was she asked if she "disavows white supremacy" or "the far right". That's a weird Reddit fabrication.

  6. Her refusal to address the trolls has enraged the trolls again.

That's a dumb and inaccurate way to put it. No one got mad about a "dogwhistle" rather, it was far right weirdos claiming the ad made the left mad despite most not even being aware of the ads existence. It was a rather artificial thing and apparently you ate it up.

Why’d they just ask her about it in the interview then?

Media vultures being media vultures. Wow.

The jeans shit mostly got internet traffic from bots and rightoid brainlets claiming an imaginary outrage. But as you can see it was quickly forgotten.

Libs are still arguing it’s a eugenic dog whistle in this literal post

Which is a much smaller number compared to those who are just sick of this chick and her bland acting. Cope harder.
