yyxy 1,292 Posted July 19 if people want to cancel a problematic person then they should cancel THAT problematic person. why do people want to criticize whoās sheās friends with, are theyĀ even friends with charli in the first place personally?Ā i really doubt they actually interact with each other most of the time so i donāt really care. this parasocialism has gone way too extreme in the recent years.Ā Ā mean girls could literally be a song about a woman whoās in her mid-20s, real āintelligentā and i think itās a sarcastic take of what a mean girl is instead of a shoutout to dasha or whoever the fuck she is. i donāt know who she is until now and thatās just proves that whatever sheās doing doesn't really make an impact. 5 Quote āSeaKeenā Ā Ā Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrE 284 Posted July 19 Tbh none of know the extent of the relationship between Charli and Dashanalamadingdong. We know Charli did like, what, a feature on a podcast or something? And it's my understanding thatĀ Dashanalamadingdong said herself that "this song is about me" with literally no evidence to support it. I know there's pictures of me with people I hate. Being around/loosely associated with people for career or contractual obligations doesn't mean you support that person or their beliefs. At all. This whole controversyĀ is as tired as I am. 3 Quote Last.fm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Let's go through every single person in their orbit and make them guilty by association,Ā too! If we can't do anything about this person or make them change on a dime immediately, let's hit every possible target around them instead! They'll either end up isolated and ousted because nobody will want to be around them (but is it because people around them genuinely don't want to be associated or support something bad? Or is it that they just don't want to have their socials flooded with annoying noise from someone else?), or we'll get them to change because of peer pressure! (but did they really change? Or did they just decide to hide their behavior and take the shit to private channels of communication instead?)" That being said though....
