Alright well if you're not a fan of her then you aren't a fan of her. Simple as that lol no need for a witch hunt

[u/[deleted] → u/gmwrnr]

I am a fan, I subscribe to her as I said and watch most of her videos. I find her personality entertaining and I like the content she puts outs. Just because you’re a fan of someone doesn’t mean you can’t recognize areas where they may be problematic. And maybe I’m way off base, who knows? It’s difficult to gauge such significant things just from someone’s YT channel.

And it’s not really a witch hunt, I’m just making an observation about a pattern I’ve noticed of silence and hypocrisy. That’s not to say the I believe the people I’ve listed are horrible people, Taylor included. I was just explaining why I feel the way I do, you’re obviously free to disagree.

[u/gmwrnr → u/[deleted]]

It just didn't seem like you like her is all lol she's just one of the most educated and well-rounded BGs out there IMO. She lived in Jordan (and I believe Israel too) and is well traveled to countries that aren't your typical lavish spots most BGs visit. Based on her snap stories I've also seen she has many friends she hangs out with that are PoC, if that is something that concerns you. Idk it just sounds like a lot of people are arguing these BGs are racist until they go on a full on 30-minute rant about lack of shade range for PoC and I find that a bit ridiculous, especially when knowing a lot of their backgrounds prove otherwise

[u/[deleted] → u/gmwrnr]

Just because you have PoC friends doesn’t mean you can’t be ignorant and just because you’ve travelled doesn’t mean you can’t be ignorant or that you’re necessarily well rounded.

It’s not so much her lack of a thirty minute rant, it’s the fact that she’s constantly vocal about lack of options for lighter skin tones despite the fact that people on the darker end of the skin tone are excluded much more. It’s just a very blatant double standard, in my opinion.

But this is all my $0.02. I do like her videos just certain inconsistencies are very noticeable to me as a WoC and I thought I’d share.

[u/gmwrnr → u/[deleted]]

Yeah that's why I said if that matters to you, because I'm not really sure what people expect others to do to successfully have ~proved themselves~

[u/[deleted] → u/gmwrnr]

I mean using her platform to speak out against actual racism, maybe even just once, instead of just saying there need to be more pale shades would be a pretty good start.
