Not to be all “I knew it!!” but tbh I definitely knew it

She’s been a mean girl for years. her comments about Chris Evans and BTS were nothing short of sexual harassment and I never forgave her for the PostMates and Chris Brown debacles, but I’m glad ppl are exposing her for being a nightmare to work with. She clearly has a problem with boundaries.

Omg yes. I felt so uncomfortable during her continual harassment of him during it all. The postmate thing was when I thought she ain't shit and I was really rooting for her, after her appearance on the Samantha show. I hope all her victims find peace and get the justice they deserve.

i'm sorry...but like what is the difference between her thirsting after c. evans and y'all and Pedro Pascal, for example? Like yes it's weird and over the top but this part of the narrative, when there's so much to choose from, seems inconsistent. Totally believe she's guilty though.

We do it in a gossip site behind a username, not in the media in front of millions of people including those who are being disgustingly talked about? It's possible that Lizzo's comments are not harassment but they're is weird, lacks boundaries and respect, and it's gross.

[murdertheopera]

it is gross but this reason is not it. by your standards anybody on instagram and twitter under a username can sit around and be gross. like all these racists and perverts.

[pwrpuffgrl]

But those users send those comments directly to the people they're being gross/racist about, no? We don't do that here.

[murdertheopera]

imo it shouldn't happen, regardless. it's so easy not to contribute to all that noise.

I get there's a huge power differential between us and Lizzo, but like. We all need to be aware of our words and their impact, whether it's a pebble or a boulder. I've been on ONTD for aeons and it's always been weird to me how comfortable many people here are about calling others out for behaviors that we ourselves engage in and it's made me much more careful about my words.

[murdertheopera]

right, it's giving "as long as you're not too well known you can get away with being gross"

[sihaya09]

Or even worse- you can be as disgusting as you want as long as you're anonymous.

[murdertheopera]

coupled with the fact so many people were all about her thirsting after chris evans at the time lol

[pwrpuffgrl]

But when you're deliberately saying all those comments directly to the people you're talking about (via dms, @s, etc), unless you're in a country that can legally do something, you can sadly get away with it, no?

[sihaya09]

Sure you can get away with it. But that's different from "does this make me a shitty huge hypocrite?"

[likegunfire]

back in the day when ppl would screenshot comments we made and literally have a file on their computer waiting to post the screenshots. then throw it in someone's face like 2 years later when their opinion/stance has completely changed. like damn we don't wanna do growth here?

[sihaya09]

There are allllllways gonna be people who will gamify progressivism for clout. They're usually pretty easy to spot and duuuude do they suck.
