I will say this new right-wing fascination with canceling her because she was mean to Courtney Stodden is just MAGAs pissed off that Chrissy didn't kowtow to Trump. Everyone made fun of Courtney Stodden ten years ago. I was in college at the time and she was a running gag for Halloween party costumes and "inside jokes." Also even Anderson Cooper made fun of her on his show!
Yes…everybody made fun of that girl. She was everybody’s punching bag. Some these people who are so outraged by what Chrissy did probably shared some those jokes.
I don’t care with Chrissy makes a comeback or not, i have no idea what that even means; but generally speaking in there anyone who is worthy of redemption?
This. And I know people will swear it’s not true but it was also popular for edgelords on the internet to tweet or meme “kill yourself” I was relatively young and online during this period. The reason these tweets made no splash at the time is that they weren’t out of the norm. It’s bad by today’s standards but sometimes people forget how quickly internet culture changes.
I don’t care either way about Teigen but I was very online during that era and managed to never make fun of Courtney Stodden (or Britney or any of the young women who got treated this way) nor did I ever tell anyone to kill themselves.
I get people make mistakes and should have a chance to correct them, but I think you should start by recognizing that “internet edge lords were doing it” isn’t really the convincing argument you think. Anyone who can get swept up in that kind of behavior could do it again. Sure, right now the online ethos is kinder and more self-aware. But what if it turns nasty again.
You have to demonstrate actual judgment.

Do you think context is useful when evaluating people’s actions? I do.

I didn’t say I was. You bothered? Go take a dirt nap. Is that mean? Hm, was it ok for a rich itch to DM that to a kid?

Hi Chrissy. How many times have you posted in this thread?
I'm not Chrissy. I'm just being realistic with you. She is far-- very far-- from canceled. And I never really liked her old persona, but her new "sober influencer" shtick is charming and I'm here for it. She has a lot of influence on moms and its a good counterbalance to mommy wine culture. 🍷
Make it more obvious you’re Chrissy or some crisis pr intern she’s blowing her husband’s money on.
You are delusional if you think these people care about what you post on DCUM.
I don't care about her either way, but anyone who is anti mom-drinking has a plus in my book. I am VERY sick of this whole "I am mom, must drink wine" thing.
Yeah, I'm definitely not Chrissy. I'm from Gaithersburg and also over the mom wine culture thing because I think it is clever marketing but tangibly hurting women's lives and health. I've decided I'm over alcohol-- I'm not drinking at dinners out with the girls or at parties or even when we meet for drinks-- because I think it's harmful. I never liked Chrissy before, but I think what she's doing is a good thing and can help other women question why drinking wine has become so closely linked with being a woman. Yes, what she said to Courtney was absolutely awful. Terrible. But she is trying to improve and said she's genuinely sorry. Look, one of the most senior executives at Nike actually shot and killed a young man, who he admits was innocent and that the killing was senseless. And I'm glad he went on to make a life for himself! Chrissy is allowed to do the same thing, and she is allowed to live big, not in the shadows like a modern day Hester Prynne.
Hm. Hester actually didn’t do anything wrong, and she wasn’t a dick.
We can debate the merits of monogamy, but Hester was married and committed adultery. That is objectively wrong. She also trolled the entire town by embroidering a beautiful A and holding her head high even though the A was supposed to be a punishment.
If you’re going to reference literature, make sure you read the book first.
NP. The point of the book is to point out that no one is perfect, and that the one who is publicly shamed isn't necessarily the most to blame. If you're going to correct other people's interpretation of literature, make sure you get it right!
