Quick, distract them
Consult Google News on “Samantha Hudson” and you get headlines like
Nasty right-wingers, they just won’t let a nice trans laydee “influencer” alone.
The company that makes Doritos cut ties with a transgender influencer after reports she posted about violence and paedophilia. Samantha Hudson, a singer and actor from Spain, has around 370,000 Instagram followers and was part of a social media campaign for the brand.
In a statement Doritos condemned Hudson’s social media posts. But its short-lived campaign led to calls, led by right-wing activists in the US, to boycott the snack food.
I hope you’ve understood which parts of this story are important – that the transgender influencer is a “she” and that the whole issue is the fault of right-wing activists.
Jenna Ellis, who was part of Donald Trump’s 2020 campaign legal team and who recently pleaded guilty in connection with an election interference case in Georgia, tweeted: “This is disgusting. Give Doritos the Bud Light treatment.”
Ahhh there you go. Thank god they found that; now we can ignore the whole thing, right? Jenna Ellis disapproves therefore obviously this “influencer” fella is as wholesome as tortilla chips.
Also [whispers] don’t mention the WPATH files.
Dear BBC: He didn’t post “about violence and paedophilia” – he posted that he wanted to rape a 12-year old girl. I never expected to find myself living in a world where to consider that to be anything but utterly beyond the pale was a partisan issue.
