For example, some time ago I came across a blog named mincedlettuce who reblogged a post of someone who said that they would have loved to see Jacob kill both Edward and Bella after she became a vampire as a way to "avenge" Bella. The original post in itself is already fucked up, but mincedlettuce reblogged it with a tag that said "Bella deserves vampire consequences for vampire choices" and I was like "what?!"

This person was literally saying that Bella deserved to die because she dared to say no to Jacob. Where have I heard that before? Ah, right—it’s the same mindset used by men who commit femicide. They believe that if they cannot "have" the woman then no one can and therefore the woman deserves to die because how dare she say no to them, right? Those men see women not as people but as property.

Jacob's character is already misrepresented because Stephenie Meyer is a racist bastard, so why—on top of Stephenie Meyer's anti-indigenous garbage—would we also want to turn him into a femicide perpetrator? Can't you see how fucked up that is?

And listen, we all agree that Jacob's hatred towards Edward and the Cullens is valid, but both the original post and the tags mincedlettuce used were clearly saying that Bella deserved to die because she said no to Jacob and this is, again, the same logic used by men who commit femicide.

What really bothers me is that much of the criticism this person directs at the Twilight saga is totally valid, but saying that the main female character deserves to die just because she rejected your favorite male character is disgusting, no matter how you look at it. No one is owed sex or a romantic relationship.

Something odd that this person also does is dismissing the people who criticize Jacob for kissing Bella against her will. I agree that there are fans who do that only to deflect when Edward is being criticized, but you can't deny that what Jacob did is not okay. Kissing someone against their will is sexual harassment and it's wrong, no matter what you say. And before y'all point your finger at me yes, I know that Edward was literally watching Bella when she was sleeping and even though he never harmed her in any way what he was doing was not okay either and was creepy as fuck, so please, let's stop calling him "The Consent King" cause even though he never touched her in any way without her consent, him watching her sleep without her knowing was a massive invasion of privacy. Bringing up what Jacob did only to deflect when Edward is being criticized and vice versa is dumb as hell. If you criticize one, you should criticize the other as well.

Let me be clear, I have nothing against mincedlettuce nor am I accusing them of hating women. As I’ve already said, many of their criticisms regarding the Twilight saga are valid, but that stuff rubbed me the wrong way.

I just wanted to get this off my chest, that's all.

This Italian tiktoker is the proof of how hypocritical many influencers are.

Her name is Vanessa Akake and she works as a model, but she is also famous on TikTok because she made many videos talking about the abuse she suffered, providing confort for many people who have gone through similar things.

Even though I didn't go through the things she went through I used to follow her cause I sympathized with her and because she seemed nice, but today I realized how shallow she really is.

She made a video where she said that you should never give a chance to "the ugly one" cause if you do you are gonna boost his self-esteem and he is going to drain you because of it. In the comment section she said that she believes that someone's physical appearence determines their personality and a agreed with some idiot who said that if you don't love yourself you can't love anyone and that someone who has a low self-esteem is going to drain you, even though self-love and the love you feel towards others aren't the same thing at all.

She used her own experience to justify the dumb shit she said. She said that she dated an "ugly" guy and he turned out to be a piece of shit who totally drained her. She also added that yeah, this can also happen with an attractive guy, but according to her "It's better to cry for someone who is sexy".

What her tiny little brain fails to grasp is that the people she described, including her ex, don't act that way simply because they have a low self-esteem, but because—beyond that—they are the type of people known in psychology as energy vampires. An energy vampire is a person who drains your emotional and mental resources during social interactions. It has nothing to do with having a low self-esteem or not. Even someone with an extremely high self-esteem can be an energy vampire. Energy vampires do what they do because they are self-centered. Sometimes being an energy vampire and having a low self-esteem can overlap, but those two things are not the same thing.

Also, the way you feel about yourself and the way you feel about others aren't the same thing. Someone can hate themselves with a passion and at the same time be a good friend, a good partner, etc. Those two things aren't mutually exclusive. It depends on the way someone chooses to treat others.

The funny part? This woman was bullied when she was in school, so she should know that assuming someone is a good person or a bad person based only and exclusively on their physical appearence isn't just wrong and inaccurate but also extremely shallow.

In the comment section of her video there was a guy who used her logic as an excuse to bodyshame fat people and she was agreeing with him. I can't find words to express how disgusted I feel towards her.

Also, before you point your finger at me, in the comments she said that she applies her logic to both genders, so don't you ever try to frame my post as me ""defending"" men because that's not what I'm doing.

Of course, visual appeal matters too, but painting someone as good or evil not because of their actions but only and exclusively because of their physical appearance is disgusting and extremely superficial.

If any of you follow her I suggest you to stop. She is not who she seems. She may seem nice but she is just a fucking bully.

I'm sorry for all the shit she's been through, but it doesn't give her a pass to be an asshole.

Here is her video btw. Judge for yourself. I unfollowed her right after watching it because I was disgusted. Add subtitles if you need:
