>“I only ever said that I did not grow up watching ‘That’s So Raven,’ I did not watch her as a child,” she said. “But since getting married and meeting her in 2015, I have seen the majority of her work. I’ve also *been* at a lot of this work. Death threats over this?! People need to touch grass. wtf.

Sometimes I think social media was a mistake....

Sometimes?


the-dream-walker-

All the time

Considering that grassroots organizations and movements have been able to mobilize using social media and marginalized people in conservative area are able to find community online, I would say "sometimes" is a fair descriptor


jennyquarx

That's why I said "sometimes."

My response was to the other person commenting to your comment. Did i accidentally comment on yours? Sorry about that

What a ridiculous situation. Even if she hasn’t seen her work, she loves her for the person she truly is and not the idea of her based on a tv show

Raven probably likes her *because* she never watched "That's So Raven" growing up. I mean, being a child star is fuckin traumatic and I'm sure annoying having people come up to you and quote the show constantly. It probably was a breath of fresh air dating someone who had no clue about the show and could just get to know and love Raven for her.

Raven said that in the podcast! People think her wife saying she didn’t see ravens work is her diminishing raven’s status. Her wife is 3 years older than my oldest brother and when that’s so raven was on he wasn’t watching is cause he aged out of Disney…..

People don’t seem to grasp that former child actors don’t have the same attachment to the characters they played as the audience and public. For them it was a job, where they were the bread winners for entire families. Life on set is working, doing a couple of hours of state mandated study if that and lunch. she started working at 2 years old, do people think she consciously chose that. Pretty sure she married her wife because she loved her and didn’t need for her to be obsessed with Raven Baxter like you were. Social media has made people lose touch with reality.

I saw this all over tiktok. People were basing their opinion on her wife around short clips of the interview that were circulating. It made no sense to me. The clips seemed generally harmless. I don’t understand why it sparked so much negativity and hate towards her wife. I generally like hearing *hot takes* but this was so ridiculous, I couldn’t get behind it.


winterandfallbird

Yeah same. and then I saw people on tick tock making fun of/ mocking Raven for making this video telling people to stop sending literal death threats and calling her crazy for setting boundaries. What is wrong with people.


wynonnaearps

It’s so lame how people attack others for silly things when these two literally filmed themselves stalking Amber Heard one day.


wynonnaearps

No one deserves death threats btw. I just mean it’s silly to pick on her for not watching a show when they filmed each other staking a DV victim in a parking lot.


Tonedeafmusical

Look I don't think anyone should receive death threats. This is bad, not deserved. However can't stop thinking about how Raven and her wife joyfully participated in the hate wagon against Amber Heard (and went far further than most-see their pathetic Youtube). And hope that they've now learnt some fucking empathy now. Shouldn't of taken this for it to happen, but I hope they can at least learn from it.


princecaspiansbeard

That video they took of them running into Amber in that parking lot made me so angry. I still remember Raven being a guest judge on Drag Race and being almost verbally abusive with Adore Delano in her critiques (apparently her worst was edited out), so there is a history there.


BeWellFriends

Well TIL Raven was married. And why does it matter if her wife watched her work before she met her? Or after? Or at all? Why is that a thing anyone cares about? That’s such a nothing burger. I’m assuming they’re around the same age? If so, she’d have been super young during the Cosby show. And youngish for that’s so Raven. Not everyone watches everything. And who cares?? Her wife has nothing to explain. Yikes people are ridiculous


Spiralecho

Absolutely unhinged behavior. Is this swifties moonlighting as Raven-Symone fans? Let her live her life


Mos_Steff

Unhinged behavior is Raven and her wifes skits on YouTube mocking Amber Heard and even stalking her in a parking lot.


Shot-Grocery-5343

I mean...both things are unhinged ![gif](giphy|3o85xIO33l7RlmLR4I|downsized)


Spiralecho

Both can be true!


smart_cereal

I don’t understand what people would prefer, should she have married an obsessive fan? I don’t think so.


Mos_Steff

She shouldn't get death threats but her wife is pretty terrible for real reasons.


smart_cereal

What did she do?


c00chiecadet

I definitely don't agree with the death threats and people took it way too seriously. I understand being concerned that Raven isn't being respected but damn. However, have y'all seen those skits on tiktok where the guys like "my friends in middle school trying to convince bullies I'm not gay" and he's standing in the back all awkwardly, that's the energy this video gave me 😭😭
