“Social media is supposed to be a place where people can express themselves and be a source for beauty and confidence, not anxiety," Lizzo said in a press statement for Dove. "That’s why I’m partnering with Dove again and calling on platforms to do more to make social media safe for young people. Seeing the negative impact social media has on youth mental health today is devastating and has to stop.”
I really like lizzo so this sucks. she thinks shes doing a good thing shes just ignorant ig.
I'm going to ascribe this to "she's a rube, not mal intentioned" but also bring up "a celebrity has people they employ that should be able to fully inform them of the consequences of the things they support, so I can't totally let them off the hook".
its the same thing with Jack Black (whoa, weird they appeared in the Mandalorian together) and his support for Autism Speaks. As much as I despise that org as an autistic, I think that Black means well by supporting them. But I also acknowledge that no celebrity can really be written off as a rube because they have way too much access to information.
