Lauren Southern made a great video about cryptocurrency. And I loved it. But now I'm discovering the rest of her videos, and realizing, with shame, that she's absolutely no one I'd like to support. Yes, it's that dreaded moment when you realize you are following someone you could actually hate in real life. Someone who basically stands for everything you are against.
I saw that video and my first thought was, "wow, a learned chick talking about crypto!" In it, she posted a bunch of photos of my Prime Minister, coupled with evil eyes, and lizard-grabby money hands and everything else you would attach to a capitalist leader of a developed country. So I obviously assumed this blondie was from my country. And I was right. So yay for me.
But I also wrongly assumed that because she seemed to espouse a lot of the ideas I do -apparently, only in this video, I probably agreed with her on many levels, right? Wrong. Could not have been more wrong, ever in my life.
Yesterday, I decided to follow her...
I promptly got on my twitter, and praised her for her great video. A tweet she liked. I went on to Facebook, to follow her there, too. I hadn't actually spent the time to check out her older videos. I was busy, and I figured I could just binge on them at a later time.
I even shared her video to my wall, for my friends to see, to help them understand this crazy world of cryptocurrency.
And then I looked up through her Facebook page
I saw a presentation where she had been protested. Cal Poly wanted nothing to do with her. they wanted her off their campus, Just like someone else she has defended in the past... Yep, Milo Yannopolis.
So I read about how Lauren is:
- buddy buds with Milo, holding hands as sweethearts of Breitbart's hate speech
- believes in the alt-right (read: pretty much white rights) movement
- believes women should go back to traditionalism: staying in the kitchen and raising their not-enough children
- is supported by Breitbart News
- does NOT believe in rape culture in the West (this was my most what-the-fuck moment)
- is a super Christian (sorry, dudes, but I just can't with that religion business. Good for you, though. keep on cruisin'.)
- against taking in refugees (wow, no shit...) - This basic-as-fuck bitch actually PHYSICALLY GOT ON A BOAT TO STOP SICILY FROM HELPING MIGRANTS.
- Apparently supports Ann Coulter, some other racist white cunt (and yeah, I reserve that word for the worst of the worst) - for reference, we didn't even let Ann Coulter speak in Canada, because OBVIOUSLY HATEFUL.
- supports America getting MORE GUNS.
So today, I'm erasing Lauren Southern from my world
In my world, people like this don't even exist and don't deserve any attention, good or bad. And so, I will never mention her name again, she will not be on any of my following lists, I won't even say a bad thing abotu her because as far as I'm concerned, once I hit the post button right here... She doesn't exist. I even refuse to link her anywhere on this post.
Fuck you and your stupid ass views, you're Canada's Tomi Lahren and Ann coulter put together. I am so ashamed you're a part of my country.
Have fun scissoring Kellie Leitch and suck my dick.
Thanks for letting me redirect my anger over a horrible decision.
Now let's get to unfollowing. (You're also welcome to unfollow me if you're offended by my disagreement with her views.)
