Mihlali has a video detailing dating an older man when she was 17/18 and her first sexual experience. She is currently 23. She has been conditioned to believe this isn’t wrong because she herself was preyed upon but isn’t at a place to recognise it as such.
Several things can be true at the same time. This situation needs alot of nuance because its really difficult to make someone a victim when they do not want to see themselves as such. Yes she has a big platform and has to be responsible,
Yes to holding her accountable to those views and educating her as to why they’re wrong esp to say on her platform. BUT NO to foaming at the mouth to take her down and cancel her (sorry not sorry). These men eagerly and suddenly ready to enact justice? Didn’t see yall months ago
Even in the holding accountable for her tweet to her latge platform. there needs to be gentleness I will never have for a man especially not y’all misogynoiristic fucking losers. Truly sorry not sorry.
Im not saying anything new people have been saying for the past two hours. Im finding it so frustrating the vitirol yall have for young black women who are hyper-visible.
Im hiding replies so don’t think you can come here with nonsense. Im not debating y’all creeps foh.
