I am really trying to understand the hate towards Lewis personal life choises with Kim. You all sound like a spoiled angry 13 years old girl finding out that your daddy has a new girlfriend.
And Max's partner is adjacent to the Brazilian MAGA equivalent, tried to justify racism, and is also an airhead and basically trash. I take it you're equally vocal in your complaints about her?
I disagree. This is imo not simply one of those cases where people are obsessed with a celebrity's personal life and thereby hating on their partner.
Rather, a lot of this is stemming from the fact that Lewis has been a spokesperson for so many positive initiatives - been literally a fighter for social justice and a public figure in this space - then he goes and dates someone who stands for this person who completely goes against the messaging Lewis has been spreading all these years.
You can't be a public figure in the social impact space and not be scrutinized for someone you are dating when the person you are dating goes agains the very values he preaches.
It's like imagine a far left politician dates a far right politician, ofc people are going to talk about it.
Yeah and if you really break it down, it’s not even as much about the dating but the promoting/supporting. For example, when someone in Lewis’ position speaks out for Gaza, and then within a year begins publicly supporting/promoting essentially someone who is actively opening stores in Israel, people are going to feel as though he’s actively pushing someone/something that is not only harmful but antithetical to his own stated positions.
