Hot Take: Molly it's not your reactions, it's you
(Borrowing from the Starbucks sub, this is a venti aka long rant) So allow me to explain my title better as it's hard to phrase in one statement. Basically, watching her talking about how she doesn't respond "gently" or "nicely", made me think about what it is that really bothers her audience and the truth is that she could respond nicely and gently but her takes would still be dumb as fuck.
Molly, the issue with your content is your beliefs and values. Like this kind of feels mean to say, but you are an inauthentic and wishy washy self serving person -and even those people can find an audience- but then you act as though you are morally superior to actual well meaning people in your weird social justice crusades.
It's hard to take you seriously on a 12 video long crash out about the election and how serious everything is only for you to do absolutely nothing substantive and ultimately go back on the majority of what you said post Election Day as far as supporting black businesses and uplifting black women. (seriously Molly, name a black woman. For a dollar. Name one)
You trash Trump all day for his crimes against women, yet you pretend you're too tone deaf to see why people would be mad at you for faking domestic violence. And then of course you come out that you like David dobrik.
You claim to want to decenter men, and then weirdly stalk a full grown man in your live and literally try to get into debate tok to get his attention. And then don't even get me started on the whole Phil situation.
You act so much smarter than us yet you suffer from delusions. You tell us you're getting thousands of hate comments yet you tell Phil and list on your Canva that you have millions of adoring fans.
You keep thinking we are criticizing you because we don't like you, babe, tbh, you are the only person I really ever engage with that I "hate"-watch. Everybody else I just watch to hate. You piss me off because of your cluelessness and your feigned helplessness. You could absolutely choose to completely ignore or just actually sit down and listen.
You are a grown woman. Grow up. Learn how to validate yourself or learn how to take criticism. Because people aren't calling you out for being reactive. They call you out for a valid reason and then you REACT POORLY. And then you act like the only reason people are calling you out is to "hate". No, you just don't know how to actually address an issue and better your content.
As much as people get into creating for themselves, eventually you gain an audience and they do expect certain things from you. You have to draw that line. If you don't want people who are feminists and will call you out for faking dv, stop acting like a feminists. If you don't want Trump supporters, stop supporting people like David dobrik. You gotta pick a goddamn side.
Ugh okay I gotta stop this is too long. (Edited to fix grammatical errors)
