Chased off Social Media


All those saying that she was harrassed with death threats and sexist, racist tweets.

Where is the proof.

Not one article, not one youtuber, not one media outlet has ever posted a single tweet, email, message, literally nothing. If it was so bad why didn't her own PR team post these tweets to shame the ones who sent them. Why were the death threats never investigated by police.

But we see article after article, posters on here who say they read the actual death threats, the actual tweets but when asked cannot produce them. Why is that?

Is it because they don't actually exist and as they say "if you tell a lie over and over again it becomes truth".

But when they want someone cancelled those tweets and messages can be produced from a decade ago. Usually a white male. But it is a poc, woman or any of the protected classes those tweets vanish and all we get is hyperbole and accusations based on no proof.

All i ask is one tweet, one email, one message, anything to back up the claims.

She wasn't chased off social media. She got a little bit of criticism for her horrible role as Rose Tico and her fragile snowflake mind couldn't handle it. The real issue here is her immaturity.

It isn't that hard to search the internet, but I did it for you. Here is the first link that shows up:

I'm sure the second, third, fourth links, etc. will show you more of what was posted.

Comments like "Jar Jar Chinks," "Is that Margaret Cho?" "lard beast" "a fat Asian is called a chunk," etc. are just the tip of the iceberg.

1) She should be compared to Jar Jar, she's equally cringeworthy
2) She kind of looks like Margaret Cho
3) She is fat
4) She is fat

It sounds like those comments were just stating the obvious.

Plus it is straight up trolling.

I'm sorry nasty words is not enough to run to the media crying for protection. People can be mean, its a part of life, there are dickheads everywhere. Just because you are an actress doesn't give you special protection from trolls.

She could have blocked them, problem solved. She could have put her twitter account to private, problem solved.

As bad as some of those comments were (personally i thought they were quite tame) it is not enough to have 100's of articles written just because she is a woman and go running away crying of toxic fans.

Her name was not mentioned once in the tweets, the picture was of her character not herself and even the references were Star Wars related. So as far as i can tell it was an attack on the character not KMT. (which everyone keeps saying)

Only one that even comes close to crossing the line which personally i don't think it does is the fat asian joke but again there are derogatory words for all races.

She's just an attention whore
