Euphoria actress, Sydney Sweeney, is catching some heat over nonsense,
apparently she threw a 60th birthday party for her mother, and
it was a hoedown themed 60th birthday party.
And we're gonna ask you guys how you feel about the backlash
she received after posting some images, from the party.
So, the 24 year old Sweeney and her brother posted to instagram,
the pictures had guests who were at the party and
some of them were wearing Maga inspired hats that read make 60 great again.
Yet it, coz her mother was turning 60, so that was what the party was about,
they're wearing the hats.
The other thing that she got backlash about, there was the fact there was a man
she was posing with, I don't know if it's her father, but
he's wearing a shirt that has the thin blue line.
You can kind of see it in that image,
the guy with the cowboy hat behind the lady in the red.
And so, again, that led to more backlash, an onslaught of
criticism from people who felt that she was supporting trump.
Even though she herself wasn't wearing any of the garb that they were
complaining about.
And so, users also dug up a now deleted image of her brother
supposedly on instagram in 2017, that allegedly
showed a baby in front of the white house with a Maga hat on.
I don't care, and if you're on the left in any capacity,
whether you identify as an establishment democrat, neo liberal,
leftist, I don't care where you are in that spectrum,
holding this against her, is stupid.
And to be sure, unsurprisingly the people who are holding it against her are on
twitter, and they're not representative of reality, they're just not, okay?
The people on twitter, are incentivized to be the most annoying,
the loudest and again they're not helpful in any way.
Sydney Sweeney writes, you guys, this is wild, an innocent celebration
from my mom's milestones 60th birthday has turned into an absurd political statement,
which was not the intention.
Please stop making assumptions, much love to everyone, and happy birthday Mom.
As a Fox news reported, fans had mixed responses to Sweeney's twitter message,
with one writing quote, we love you and trump don't let the woke mob silence you.
While another wrote, girl they were wearing MAGA hats, and
blue lives matter T-shirts, you cannot be serious.
And free Frederick Joseph was one of the people who criticized her assumptions,
don't gaslight your fans.
Many are likely young,
progressive people based on the content of the show, that gave you fame.
Your family is obviously far right based on the blue lives matter shirts,
and MAGA babies.
And one person commented quote, then you should have selected
other pictures to post, that wouldn't be left up to interpretation in this matter,
lesson learned for you I assume, how about you shut up?
How about that?
Okay?
What do you, what's the point here?
Are these people who are criticizing her, asking her to like punch her family
members in the face for having political views that are different than hers?
Because she has posted on social media in support of black lives matter,
she's posted against police brutality, she's allowed to be her own person,
and we can't choose who our family members are.
And it's totally okay, to have family members who have political views that
are different than yours, but you still love them.
This was supposed to be a fun 60th birthday party that idiots online decided
to turn into a big controversy,
when in reality there's nothing controversial here.
>> Okay, so, look, it's enough controversial that we've got a poll on it,
maybe some of you agree with those folks, one of the tweets that we mentioned,
there's Frederick Joseph.
I like Frederick, he's been on TIT many times, but
I'm with Anna on this one, so, look, guys,
I don't know what we're supposed to do about policing family and friends.
[CROSSTALK] Well, I know, but what was she supposed to do?
Tell the dude in the back, you gotta take off your shirt,
you gotta put on a different shirt, was she supposed to do that?
Hey, make 60 grade again, was she supposed to police their joke?
Are you sure that that means they're MEGA?
I'm not at all sure it means that,
I don't know why you would be sure that it means that.
And so, she doesn't believe any of that stuff, but
look, I don't care what any celebrity thinks.
Unless they're getting in the field of battle in terms of ideas and they say
stupid stuff, then I'm here to knock it down, that's my job, no problem, right?
But if there's secretly like okay, Rob Schneider,
I found out today's conservative, I didn't know that, okay?
Used to be on SNL, does that mean I'm not watching any more of his movies?
No, it doesn't mean I don't care, another hand when Ted Nugent says stupid stuff,
I'm gonna tell you how stupid it is and I'm gonna make fun of him.
And the dude who he had in his pants,
to get out of Vietnam war coz that's funny, okay?
So, for her, I'm gonna get into her what her uncle thinks, and
what her mom might think because of a gag at,
dude guys that just not enough time in the world man.
>> They Dug up, a photo from her brother's Instagram page,
dating back to 2017, no, this is like meant, this is crazy behavior.
And I think what triggers me so much about this story,
is this ongoing trend that I've been noticing with the broad left, okay?
There's a variety of people who identify on the left,
two different shades of leftist, whatever it is, okay?
It's like they don't understand, that we have no power, and
part of politics, part of winning, is getting people on our side, okay?
But the online left, their number one obsession, okay?
It reigns supreme, over any political issue, is just spending all day
on twitter, determining who isn't left enough for them, so
they can go ahead and reject them from their highly exclusive powerless club.
And I can't stand it, you guys are powerless for a reason,
who cares what her family members believe, why are you holding that against her?
And by the way,
you're not you're also not allowed to have a point of view that's even a little
different from what the most extreme elements of the left believe on twitter.
Because the second you do, doesn't matter what your track record is,
doesn't matter what you talk about on the show, on a regular basis.
Doesn't matter who you are as a person,
who you've proven yourself to be as a person, for literally decades.
You say one thing, they disagree with your right winger, you're right winger,
you don't want elderly people to be sucker punched by repeat criminal offenders.
You're a right winger, I guess I am, I don't know,
if this is the left, we're gonna keep losing, [LAUGH] it's pathetic.
>> [CROSSTALK] Like the leftist police,
are you leftist enough, are you leftist enough?
You should only be bringing people in,
not figuring out who you can reject from your exclusive powerless club.
>> Yeah, so, on this issue TYT.com/polls, I'm curious what you all think,
maybe we're in the minority, maybe the real left position is
to hate Sydney Sweeney, for our family members, I don't know.
That's why we do the poll, okay?
>> Well, maybe sometimes the minority is right [CROSSTALK]
>> But to Anna's point guys,
I don't know who elected these folks to be representative of the left,.
For example, if anyone would have an argument to be say that they were elected
to be representative left.
Of course the number one person would be Bernie Sanders,
because he collected tens of millions of votes,
that's literally voting him to be the leader of the movement, right?
You could argue some of the other elected in their own ways, right?
You could argue us, we've got 21 million subscribers, that's 21 million people say,
yeah, that's the home of progressives, right?
But Randall is on twitter will come out and be like, this is the left wing
position, and if you disagree with my position, you're not a left wing.
Well, okay, and by the way, that might be true, so back it up,
why am I not a left winger, or why is that person on the left winger?
I can show you different reasons why, people are like Dave Rubin for
a long time, pretend to be a left winger,
we showed you overwhelming evidence that he wasn't.
Okay, boom, there you go, easy, but for
a lot of people on social media to Anna's point, they think if you disagree
with the most extreme position, by 2%, I'm going to disqualify you.
Well, who the hell are you?
And who made you left king?
[LAUGH] right?
So prove it to me, show it to me, but no, they don't want evidence,
they don't care about that, in a sense, they just want to be holier than thou, so
they can feel good.
>> Yeah, it's all super narcissistic,
it's not about building any kind of broad coalition that could
leverage its power to, get the policies we want to get past done.
And it's incredibly frustrating, because spending your entire day,
engaging in ridiculous vitriol on twitter, ain't gonna accomplish a damn thing,
but they feel really good about themselves.
Like I guarantee you they pat themselves on the back,
as like the purest left members of the left imaginable.
No, you cause more damage than anything else, let's just keep it real.
>> Yeah, I mean, look, last thing on this story,
if you think that you are proving that you are the most left by hating Sweeney for
having the wrong family members.
I'm not sure you understand what being left meets.
>> Yeah, let's investigate your family members, by the way,
no right wingers in your family?
>> If we did a random picture at a family get together,
would you pass the test, right?
So, it's absurd, and it's not inviting, it makes people feel like you're rejecting
them nonstop, and when she's trying to be on your side, take the win.
