Demi Lovato Hit With Backlash After Promoting Diet Culture By Appearing With ‘Dr. Pepper Zero’
After accusing a frozen yogurt shop of promoting “diet culture” for selling “sugar-free” options, singer Demi Lovato has been getting backlash online after photos surfaced of her appearing in front of a “Dr. Pepper Zero” step-and-repeat backdrop while speaking into a branded microphone.
“Demi Lovato is in hot water with fans over a recent photo of the star holding a Dr. Pepper Zero Sugar-branded microphone — just a month after the singer went to war with a frozen yogurt chain over its ‘triggering’ sugar-free offerings,” reported Page Six. “One critic on Twitter — who did not use Lovato’s preferred they/them pronouns after the performer recently came out as nonbinary — pointed out that Lovato ‘sure is ok with attacking diet culture unless the diet culture lines her pockets’ and encouraged their fans to ‘stop trying to defend an unhinged adult woman.'”

Civil Rights Activist On Biden’s Race Remarks: ‘One Of The Worst Race Hoaxes Since Jussie Smollett’
Horace Cooper, co-founder of Project 21 and former constitutional law professor at George Mason University, slammed President Joe Biden for Biden’s recent remarks about racial issues.
Cooper appeared on Fox News during an interview with host Tucker Carlson where they discussed remarks that Biden made this week while in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
“You know, this is really, really sad what the President is doing,” Cooper said. “This is perhaps one of the worst race hoaxes since the Jussie Smollett charge. When the President of the United States stands up and lies to the American people about the American people. He says that we are so racist, and that in particular, if you look around in your community, you need to keep your eye out for one particular type of individual, white men, white nationalist, white racists.”

COMMENTARY ON THE BELOW ARTICLE: I have zero satisfaction in reading or sharing this. I have family in this category that have been so psychologically damaged by their engagement with the culture war and obsession with their own deeply held Postmodernist neo-Marxist ‘anti-racist’ ideology.
When it comes to this ideology and mental health issues, I’m not sure what came first, the chicken or egg, but the two are definitely connected.
I also have a number people in my social circle that also are suffering the same fate, despite my trying to reach out to them. It is very difficult help someone when they have been brainwashed into detesting you on an existential level. Peter Hitchens talks about this here.
I am currently seeking further guidance from other more experienced members of the public and will of course share any resources on here if anything materialises that yields positive results. This isn’t going away by itself sadly – BrandX.
