I think it's often a problem to separate race from a discussion, but lets try.... does it really have anything to do with this topic??
Very much so. For one, Myonna is a black woman that spent months advocating for black books to the point of basically harassing people about it and name-dropping, only to then not read that much black fiction after the summer was over. I'm not big on going to her GR and actively counting how many black books she reads, I do feel that's a little much imo, but that is a discussion that's going to be had here since it's tied to her reading habits and online presence.

If you're talking about the sidebar conversation that I formed by accident (oops), I stated that because a lot of the time nonblack people don't understand that white woman can be especially close-minded in terms of what is feminist or not-- there are entire studies on "white feminism" and how a lot of white activists don't consider intersectionality and will often say or do micro- and macro-agressions just as much as other white people who aren't activists. Black people especially black women deal with so much misogynoir from white people who claim to be activists. Even other nonblack POC will do the same thing and aren't aware of it. Like duh of course no one deserves to be "made fun of" for small things, in fact we often get on Myonna's case for that kind of harrassment/bullying. But making fun of ignorant white women who often do antiblack things I don't see an issue with.

Also I want to add that I'm talking specifically about the "making fun of" part-- I also don't think slut shaming is okay by any means.

Ooh okay that's fair, I didn't realise she had been harassing others for their reads. In that case it turns into a 'practice what you preach' kind of situation. It's not fair for anybody to hold others to standards they don't meet themselves.
Thank you for clarifying!

Really don't know how she can call herself a feminist and shit while saying this... Like yes, it's a fictional character but who the fuck says someone deserves to be slut-shamed, real or not? Her entire attitude is disgusting, like being a bitch isn't something you should be proud of...
she retweeted this... same energy
Meh I don't feel as strongly about this. White women do white women shit that they should get made fun of for ngl. I just wouldn't put slut shaming into that category
"no more girls supporting girls" and "white women should be made fun of" is so antifeminist, just like slut shaming, maybe not as drastic but it's still really catty... this is such a narrow mindset to say it's okay to make fun of women because they're white, anything involving putting girls down is NOT feminist full stop.
hey quick question are you white
no, not that it's any of your business or even relevant to this discussion. but i hate the patriarchy and men who give girls shit for just having fun and doing whatever tf they want so when i see other girls making fun of or putting down other girls for just enjoying themselves but then claiming to be feminist.. it grinds my gears

Quick Answer though it wasnt aimed at me: I'm not white and I def think it's anti-feminist to slut shame any woman. Color, ethnicity,class, caste,creed no bar
hey quick question are you black though 🤔
still not relevant unless you're implying that only if i am black is my point valid. i'm all for making fun of self-entitled karens/trump voters but i think making fun of white women or ANY women who do nothing wrong is very unprogressive.. just my opinion as a feminist :)

Wasn't talking to you for that second comment but ok lol. I've already dropped this conversation and let it go when I stated my side earlier in the week

I thought they were just taking a break but I guess it's completely over. If what that one person was saying was true and Myonna was causing fights and rifts within their group then I don't really blame them tbh

Zoe seems like quite a piece of work too so wouldn't be suprised if she was part of the problem

I’m surprised Myonna’s gurugossip isn’t more popular. I find her particularly unlikable. I’ve never felt this way about a content creator before. What she has said about asexual people really made me notice her unlikable side, but it’s also the little things for me. I hated her attitude in her reply to when Jack Edwards posted his innocuous romance genre tweet. Her whole “mean girl” persona is so flimsy and it’s honestly embarrassing because she’s not clever or pretty enough to pull it off, and even if she was, having a mean girl persona in real life unironically is so cringey. She recently tweeted that 400+ people have blocked her and I don’t think she’s really deeply thought about why that is.

Okay but both Myonna and Connor are so annoying, how are they so unaware of themselves?

Myonna thinks being mean to people is a quirky personality trait and it's giving "I'm not like other girls" vibes. I thought maybe she'd grow out of it, but based on the drama surrounding her supporting HP and the acephobic comments, I think she's just a bad person.

I haven't watch her in a minute. I think just alot of us just got tried of her honestly just the same wash and repeat. Me personally after that HP video and before that was tweeting about people who claimed they were ally and wasn't. Wasn't upset about her calling out these business. Always in drama and then claiming she wasn't going to be and anymore "drama" next thing you know.

Look at some of the past booktubers part and earlier pages she always falling out with someone and seem like she the problem
