Jameela Jamil Rescinds Candace Owens' Invite to Speak on her "I Weigh" Podcast

Jan 03, 2020 17:41


SAD TO ANNOUNCE that @jameelajamil has revoked my invitation to her podcast bc I tweeted “only women can give birth”. Apparently the statement made her trans co-workers feel “unsafe”.

My refusal to untether myself from biological realities has cost me, yet again.

"ONTD, do you think only women can give birth?"

I mean, why would you not......RESEARCH someone before inviting them on your platform??

Jameela does this a lot. She says something online or does something without doing her homework and a bit of research. She apologizes a lot for making these mistakes, yet the more she keeps doing so, the more her apologies lose meaning. If she keeps at it, she's going to be the next Lena Dunham. She seems to mean well, and I don't think she needs to be cancelled, but she seems too quick to act without doing or saying things with some thought. Doing so would give her more credibility and not hurt her reputation. She backtracks a lot, and it's painful to watch/read.

I saw a tweet once abt her that sums her up perfectly “she’s very loud for someone not so bright”

Candace clearly doesn't understand the meaning of the words female/male/woman/man.

Lies. That bitch knows exactly that. She spends too much of her time hanging out with white supremacists, so the cunt thinks she can act like them. Next!

You really don't need to throw the c-word around, especially if that's you in your icon.

Don't we even have a rule against male members using that word? Or did I dream that?

this feels like bullshit to me. if you are a celebrity known for your activism, and you have a podcast discussing said activism - wouldn't you thoroughly vet your potential guests? research them at all, so you don't go into your debate/discussion totally blind? not even her personally, but does she not have a team behind her to do any of them for her?

or do you know very well what their controversial views are, watch them tweet their controversial views, get dragged by your own fans, and then pretend like you had noooo idea at all so you can carry on pretending to be some Woke Twitter Kween?

I haven't read the article, but if that phrasing came from the headline writers and NOT the trans couple in the article, wow, did the writers do them a disservice.
