Variety gets hammered online for defending celebrity endorsements after devastating Harris loss

Variety magazine defended celebrities and scolded the public in the wake of the Democratic Party's devastating defeat, but many did not appreciate this advice.

Music writer Chris Willman gets angry. condemned Some in the media blamed celebrity endorsements for the losses, and even worse, others argued that celebrity endorsements were meaningless.

The idea that the involvement of celebrities and artists will somehow lead to actual voters. be discouraged This is a fantasy, one gleefully perpetrated by the “wake up and go broke” crowd and taken up by columnists who think bullying limousine liberals will never go out of fashion. (Actually, that's not the case.) I see this being picked up by objective journalists and some Democrats themselves who imagine there is a substantive reason to tell the entertainment world to shut up and sing. That's just a shame.

Willman went on to say that celebrities had nothing to do with this loss, but also argued that celebrities influence voters and should be listened to, which is at least somewhat It seems contradictory.

Many people on social media reacted violently to the reprimand.

“She lost because she didn't hear from more celebrities.” made a joke Commentator Sean Medlock. This is what I have been saying.

“Celebrities don't stress about whether they should buy groceries or put gas in their car. They have their own safety and livelihood behind the gates, so they are safe from the clutches of illegal criminals. They don't worry about being assaulted, robbed, or murdered. They have no idea how terrible it is.” read One of the most common reactions.

“Once again, we need to treat entertainers the way the ancients did: as the lowest rung on the social ladder, completely useless except to perform for our benefit. ” answered Author Mike Côté.

”[Y]You people are so ridiculously out of touch with reality that it's really funny. ” answered Author Raven O'Connor.

“I value the opinion of Rich Diddy as much as I value the local homeless man telling me about the lucrative opportunities in cryptocurrencies.” read Another reply.

The Harris-Waltz campaign has come under intense criticism for raising a staggering $1 billion in campaign donations, all of which was spent in catastrophic losses and ended up in debt.
