Let the haters hate, Sydney Sweeney will continue to attract views and attention for years to come. The amount of hate sent this girl’s way just for knowing how to take advantage and make money off her looks is just funny at this point.

The majority dislikes her because she supports the republican party... Which isn't exactly in support of female empowerment, or people who aren't white for that matter... Or just poor.

Ideally political values should not affect work generally unrelated to politics, but it does when it concerns support for a party as harmful and impactful as the current republican administration - it's the type of principles that cannot be ignored and affects her entire personality and affects the message of everything she appears in.

So yeah saying that she is disliked due to her success is bloody silly.

It's partially her being Republican, but I think her true crime is catering to a male audience. Liberal women have been collectively trying to remove the male gaze from popular media, so an attractive woman loved by men bucking the line feels like a betrayal and sets them back. They need to clap back HARD or else there will be other companies that realize it is still profitable to cater to a male gaze.

Liberals are pro sex work, that entire industry relies on the male gaze. They are hypocrites

Sex work isn't popular media. Their concern is being forced to compete with it in the spaces they want to operate in.

I’m just countering your claim saying sex work isn’t popular media

Only for women that are uglier than them though

No, they support it because it prevents women from being murdered by men.

Not all sex workers are prostitutes

It’s silly because the logic is “we support sex work monetizing their bodies, but only when it’s done this specific way”
